Abstract

1. Changes in excitability of the motor cortex induced by a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) were examined by simultaneous recording of the evoked corticospinal volley and the compound surface electromyographic (EMG) response in the biceps brachii following paired‐pulse TMS in five conscious subjects. The effects of a varying interstimulus interval (ISI) and a conditioning stimulus intensity were also investigated. 2. A submotor threshold conditioning stimulus inhibited the test responses at ISIs of 2‐5 ms. A supramotor threshold conditioning stimulus inhibited the test responses at ISIs of 100‐200 ms. Both of these inhibitions were prominent in late I waves. 3. There was a facilitation of the test responses at an ISI of 25 ms that was prominent in late I waves. The facilitation evoked by the supramotor threshold conditioning stimulus was more prominent than that evoked by the submotor threshold conditioning stimulus. 4. It is concluded that single TMS induced the triphasic changes of the motor cortex excitability in conscious humans that resulted in changes in EMG responses following paired TMS.

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.
