Journal ArticleDOI

Disturbances of kinaesthesia in patients with cerebellar disorders

TL;DR: The performance of patients with cerebellar degeneration was significantly worse than that of normal subjects on the tasks testing for duration and velocity perception, and spindle afferents were superior in detecting velocity changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The time course of changes in motor cortex excitability associated with voluntary movement.

TL;DR: Findings support the hypothesis that ERS represents an inactive, idling state of the cortex, which is abnormal in movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and dystonia, reflecting abnormalities in both movement preparation and in cortical excitability following movement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Movement rate effect on activation and functional coupling of motor cortical areas.

TL;DR: The results suggested that for slow repetitive movements, each individual movement is separately controlled, and EEG activation and coupling of the motor cortical areas were immediately followed by transient deactivation and decoupling, having clear temporal modulation locked to each movement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simple reaction time to focal transcranial magnetic stimulation. Comparison with reaction time to acoustic, visual and somatosensory stimuli.

TL;DR: Reaction time to Suprathreshold transcranial stimulation to the motor cortex seems to transiently inhibit the neurons responsible for initiation of motor programs involving muscles in which motor evoked potentials have been induced, thereby prolonging the reaction time.
Journal ArticleDOI

One man's poison--clinical applications of botulinum toxin.

TL;DR: This video explains howbotulinum toxin, one of the deadliest poisons known, is most commonly encountered as a source of food poisoning, and there are shivers around the world when it is faced with food poisoning.
