Action video game playing is associated with improved visuomotor performance; however, the underlying neural mechanisms this increased performance are not well understood. Using Serial Reaction Time Task in conjunction Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, we investigated if displayed action players (actionVGPs) was corticospinal plasticity primary motor cortex (M1) compared to non-video (nonVGPs). Further, assessed actionVGPs and nonVGPs differences procedural learning as measured by SRTT. We...
Abstract Paired associative stimulation (PAS), transcranial direct current (tDCS), and alternating (tACS) are non-invasive brain methods that used to modulate cortical excitability. Whether one technique is superior the others in achieving this outcome whether individuals respond intervention more likely another remains largely unknown. In present study, neurophysiological aftereffects of three excitatory neurostimulation protocols were measured with magnetic (TMS). Twenty minutes PAS at an...
The BDNF Val66Met polymorphism is associated with impaired short-term plasticity in the motor cortex, learning, and intermanual transfer of a procedural skill. Here, we investigated impact on modulation cortical excitability interhemispheric inhibition through sensorimotor practice simple dynamic skills right left first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscles. To that end, compared evoked potentials (MEP) amplitudes short-interval intracortical (SICI) bilateral representations FDI muscle primary...
