- Non-invasive transcranial Eectrical Stimulation (tRNS and tACS) targeting the Pallidum in normal Controls and PD Patients by rotating electrical FieldsObjective: To identify if low intensity transcranial electric stimulation targeting the pallidum influences motor cortex excitability. Background: Low intensity electrical stimulation has been shown to…
- Exercise based priming and virtual reality for optimizing neuroplasticity and balance in Parkinson’s disease.Objective: To determine the neurophysiological and behavioral effects of exercise-based priming and virtual reality in individuals with PD. Background: Individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD) are…
- Motor resonance flexibility to emotion-enriched context in Parkinson’s disease patients with and without freezing of gait.Objective: This study aims at exploring the response of the mirror neuron system, specifically motor resonance, to an emotion-enriched context in people with Parkinson disease…
- Neurophysiological features of the premotor cortex excitability parameters after a course of therapeutic transcranial magnetic stimulation in patients with Parkinson’s disease stage II living in the Zaporizhzhya regionObjective: Modern principles of Parkinson's Disease (PD) treatment don't include only pharmacotherapy, but also non-drug methods. Particularly, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is actively used in…
- Changes of cutaneous and cortical silent responses in a random sample of Lithuania patients with Parkinson diseaseObjective: To investigate the properties of central and peripheral innervation in Parkinson disease (PD) using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroneurography (ENG), also to evaluate…
- QPS over the supplementary motor area induced cortical excitability changes in human primary motor cortex: Comparison with Placebo effectObjective: To explore the effects of quadripulse stimulation (QPS) over the supplementary motor area (SMA) in the healthy humans. Background: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)…
- A comparative study on the alterations in the cortical excitability and central motor conduction time in spinocerebellar ataxias 1, 2, 3 and 12Objective: This study evaluates and compares the RMT and CMCT in patients with genetically proven SCA1, SCA2, SCA3 and SCA12 using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).…
- Impaired intracortical inhibition is associated with reduced hand dexterity in Parkinson’s disease patientsObjective: To check whether hand dexterity in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients is linked with motor cortex excitability and plasticity. Background: Hand dexterity is impaired in…
- The therapeutic effects of cortical electrical stimulation in an animal model of Parkinson’s diseaseObjective: In this study, we first designed the long-term implantable cortical electrical stimulation (CES) module in a rat model of Parkinson's disease (PD). With the…
