Cortical excitability in patients with Parkinson’s disease on levodopa carbidopa intestinal gel thereapy
Objective: To assess whether there are changes in short interval intracortical inhibition (SICI) that reflect changes in motor function and plasma levodopa levels in patients…Does repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) affect cognitive function in Parkinson’s disease by modulating high-frequency brain oscillations: A magnetoencephalography (MEG) study
Objective: To better understand the mechanisms of how repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) may improve cognitive function in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Cognitive dysfunction and…Investigation of the influence of the parieto-premotor network on the motor cortex in writer’s cramp using transcranial magnetic stimulation
Objective: We aimed to study the influence of the parieto-premotor network on the motor cortex in patients with writer's cramp. Background: The parietal and premotor…Clinical effects of pallidal stimulation in dystonia are quantitatively related to intracortical inhibition
Objective: To distinguish between patients with dystonia according to the clinical outcome of pallidal stimulation (GPi DBS) using intracortical inhibition of the motor cortex assessed…Theta burst repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in a case with cortical-basal ganglionic degeneration
Objective: Corticobasal ganglionic degeneration (CBGD) is a progressive taupathy involving frontal and parietal cortices as well as basal ganglia. The disease is clinically characterized by…Triad-conditioning transcranial magnetic stimulation in focal hand dystonia
Objective: To evaluate if the intrinsic oscillations within the primary motor cortex (M1) at rest are entrained at the same frequencies of trains of transcranial…An open label trial to test the modulation of cerebellar motor pathways in primary orthostatic tremor using rTMS and fMRI
Objective: In patients with primary orthostatic tremor (OT), we assessed how functional impairment, electrophysiological measures of tremor and long-range connection between the cerebellum and the…Effects of cerebellar theta-burst stimulation on arm and neck movement kinematics in patients with focal dystonia
Objective: To investigate the influence of the cerebellum on the motor cortex in primary focal dystonia using cerebellar continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) and to evaluate…Resetting tremor by single pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation at the motor cortex and the cerebellum in essential tremor and dystonic tremor
Objective: To explore the role of M1 and CB in the pathophysiology of ET and DT by assessing tremor resetting with motor cortex (M1) and…Finger tapping-related brain activation and impact of cerebellar theta-burst stimulation in cervical dystonia patients
Objective: To assess brain activation during simple movements of the right hand in patients with cervical dystonia (CD) by means of fMRI. To test the…
