AB  - Background/Aim. Adaptive control and fingertip force synchronization of precise grasp stability during unimanual manipulation of small objects represents an illustrative example of highly fractionated movements that are foundation of fine motor control. It is assumed that this process is controlled by several motor areas of the frontal lobe, particularly applicable to the primary motor (M-1) and dorsal premotor cortex (PMd). Aiming to examine the role of PMd during fine coordination of fingertip forces we applied theta burst repetitive magnetic stimulation (TBS) to disrupt neural processing in that cortical area. Methods. Using a single-blind, randomized, crossover design, 10 healthy subjects (29 ± 3.9 years) received single sessions of continuous TBS (cTBS600), intermittent TBS (iTBS600), or sham stimulation, separate from one another at least one week, over the PMd region of dominant hemisphere. Precision grasp and lift were assessed by instrumented device, recording grip (G) and load (L) forces, during three manipulation tasks (ramp-and-hold, oscillation force producing and simple lifting tasks), with each hand separately, before and after interventions. Results. We observed the improvement of task performance related to constant error (CE) in oscillation task with the dominant hand (DH) after the iTBS (p = 0.009). On the contrary, the cTBS reduced variable error (VE) for non-dominant hand (NH), p = 0.005. Considering force coordination we found that iTBS worsened variables for NH (G/L ratio, p = 0.017; cross-correlation of the G and L, p = 0.047; Gain, p = 0.047). Conclusion. These results demonstrate the ability of TBS to modulate fingertip forces during precision grasping and lifting, when applied over PMd. These findings support the role of PMd in human motor control and forces generation required to hold small objects stable in our hands.
AB  - Uvod/Cilj. Adaptivna kontrola i sinhronizacija sila prstiju šake tokom preciznog hvata pri manipulisanju malim predmetima jednom rukom predstavlja ilustrativni primer visoko frakcionisanih pokreta koji predstavljaju temelj motorne kontrole preciznih pokreta. Pretpostavlja se da ovim procesom upravlja nekoliko motornih oblasti frontalnog režnja, i to prvenstveno primarni motorni (M-1) i dorzalni premotorni korteks (PMd). Cilj istraživanja bio je ispitivanje uloge PMd-a tokom vršenja pokreta koji zahtevaju finu koordinaciju sila prstiju šake. U istraživanju smo primenili ponavljanu magnetnu stimulaciju pražnjenjima u teta frekvenciji, kako bi ometali neuralno procesiranje u toj oblasti moždane kore. Metode. Primenom jednostrano slepe studije, uz nasumičnu raspodelu i ukršteni dizajn, 10 zdravih ispitanika (29 ± 3,9 godina) bilo je izloženo pojedinačnim sesijama kontinuirane magnetne stimulacije (cTBS600), ili intermitentne ponavljane magnetne stimulacije (iTBS600), pražnjenjima u teta frekvenciji kao i prividnoj stimulaciji iznad PMd regiona dominantne hemisfere, odvojenih međusobno, najkraće nedelju dana. Precizanost hvata šake i podizanja procenjivani su uređajem koji je registrovao silu stiska (G) i silu podizanja (L) prilikom izvođenja tri zadatka (zadatak sa zadatim profilom L, zadatak sa oscilatornim variranjem nivoa L i zadatak sa podizanjem), koji su izvođeni sa obe ruke odvojeno, i to pre i nakon svake intervencije. Rezultati. Nakon primene iTBS protokola zabeleženo je poboljšanje izvođenja iskazano konstantnom greškom (CE) u zadatku sa oscilatornim variranjem nivoa L, kada je izvođen dominantnom rukom (DH), p = 0.009. Suprotno tome, primena cTBS protokola dovela je do smanjenja promenjive greške (VE) za nedominantnu ruku (NH), p = 0.005. Sa aspekta koordinacije sila utvrđeno je da je iTBS protokol doveo do pogoršanja rezultata praćenih pokazatelja za nedominantnu ruku (G/L odnos, p = 0.017; korelacija G i L, p = 0.047; prirast sile p = 0.047). Zaključak. Rezultati našeg istraživanja ukazuju na mogućnost modulacije sila prstiju šake tokom preciznog hvata i podizanja, ukoliko se TBS primeni iznad PMd-a. Dobijeni nalazi podržavaju ulogu PMd u motornoj kontroli i generisanju sila neophodnih za stabilno držanje malih predmeta kod ljudi.

AB  - Introduction: Sham-controlled low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was used in patients with pharmacoresistant major depression as an added treatment along with partial sleep deprivation (PSD). In addition, the potential predictive role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor genetic polymorphism on treatment response was analyzed. Methods: We recruited 19 female patients (48.3 +/- 8.6 years old) with treatment-resistant unipolar major depression (Hamilton Depression Rating Scale [HDRS] score  gt = 20) who were on a stable antidepressant treatment. They received either 1-Hz rTMS or sham stimulation over the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (intensity of 110% of the threshold; 3000 stimuli per protocol; and 10 daily sessions). Additionally, PSD was applied once per week during the treatment. The patients were evaluated (HDRS and Clinical Global Impression Scale) by a blind rater at baseline (B) and after 2 and 3 weeks (W2 and W3) of treatment for short-term outcome. Long-term evaluations were performed after 12 (W12) and 24 weeks (W24) for patients who received active stimulation. Results: Eleven patients in the active group showed a significant HDRS score reduction from 30.09 +/- 3.53 (B) to 16.73 +/- 5.71 (W3) compared to the lack of therapeutic response in the sham-treated patients. The long-term follow-up for the active group included 64% of the responders at W12 and 55% at W24. Full remission (HDRS  lt = 10) was achieved in 5 of 11 patients. Four of these 5 patients with long-term sustained remission expressed the Val66Val genotype. Conclusion: Our study suggests a clinically relevant response, persisting for up to 6 months, from 1-Hz rTMS over the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and PSD in patients with pharmacoresistant major depression. The brain-derived neurotrophic factor Val66Val homozygous genotype may be related to a better treatment outcome.
