Attention influences the excitability of cortical motor areas in healthy humans
Abstract
We investigated whether human attentional processes influence the size of the motor evoked potentials (MEP) facilitation and the duration of the cortical silent period (CSP) elicited by high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). In healthy subjects we assessed the effects of 5 Hz-rTMS, delivered in trains of 10 stimuli at suprathreshold intensity over the hand motor area, on the MEP size and CSP duration in different attention-demanding conditions: "relaxed," "target hand," and "non-target hand" condition. We also investigated the inhibitory effects of 1 Hz-rTMS conditioning to the premotor cortex on the 5 Hz-rTMS induced MEP facilitation. F-waves evoked by ulnar nerve stimulation were also recorded. rTMS trains elicited a larger MEP size facilitation when the subjects looked at the target hand whereas the increase in CSP duration during rTMS remained unchanged during the three attention-demanding conditions. The conditioning inhibitory stimulation delivered to the premotor cortex decreased the MEP facilitation during the "target hand" condition, leaving the MEP facilitation during the other conditions unchanged. None of the attentional conditions elicited changes in the F wave. In healthy subjects attentional processes influence the size of the MEP facilitation elicited by high-frequency rTMS and do so through premotor-to-motor connections.

Attention and task difficulty are known non-specific modulators of corticospinal excitability and plasticity.
“Indeed, non-specific factors such as attention and task difficulty are known to modulate corticospinal excitability and plasticity (Beck and Hallett, 2010; Conte et al., 2007; Pearce and Kidgell, 2009; Stefan et al., 2004).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
