Objective: Recent functional and imaging studies have substantially contributed to extend
the concept of multiple sclerosis (MS), classically regarded as a disease limited to the myelin …

Background and purpose: Recent research has shown that following stroke patients can
display ipsilateral activity reflecting a functional link between the undamaged hemisphere and …

Objective: To reverse the profile of abnormal intracortical excitability in patients with ALS by
administering drugs that promote GABAergic transmission. Background: Transcranial …

Objective: We applied paired transcranial magnetic stimulation (pTMS) to patients with post-traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD) secondary to minor accidental head trauma. Our purpose …

In this study, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the hand primary motor area was
used to test possible excitability changes induced by the administration of Vigabatrin (Gamma-…

In this study, we have used paired transcranial stimulation of the motor cortex to test the
hypothesis that cortical inhibition is decreased in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). The double …

In the present study, the effects of benzodiazepines (diazepam) were evaluated in terms of
cortical excitability changes, as tested with transcranial magnetic simulation (TMS). In …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) research has shown that brain arteriovenous
malformations (AVMs) lead to reorganization of cortical motor areas. Since it is known that …

Scalp somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) were recorded in 10 volunteers after
median nerve stimulation, in four experimental conditions of hand movements performance/ideation…

Method Fifty (50) patient-caregiver dyads were recruited. Patients, hospitalized in rehabilitation
facilities, were administered the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 (SIS 3.0) patient version, the …
