Evidence-based guidelines on the therapeutic use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)

TL;DR: There is a sufficient body of evidence to accept with level A (definite efficacy) the analgesic effect of high-frequency rTMS of the primary motor cortex (M1) contralateral to the pain and the antidepressant effect of HF-rT MS of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC).
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic brain stimulation: the silent period after the motor evoked potential.

TL;DR: In 25 normal subjects, the EMG silent period following the magnetic motor evoked potential (MEP) when the target muscle was tonically contracted when the post-EMP silent period [PMSP] was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

The bereitschaftspotential is abnormal in parkinson's disease

TL;DR: The average Bereitschaftspotential preceding a rapid, self-paced voluntary extension movement of the index finger was recorded from 6 scalp locations in 14 patients with Parkinson's disease who had been withdrawn from their normal drug therapy for at least 12 h before testing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parkinson's disease rigidity: Magnetic motor evoked potentials in a small hand muscle

TL;DR: In rigidity, spinal motor nuclei may be more responsive than normal to descending inputs from motor cortex, or the entire corticomotoneuron system may prove hyperexcitable under given conditions.
