Slow (1 Hz) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) induces a sustained change in cortical excitability in patients with Parkinson's disease
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2010)
Objective: Low-frequency ( lt = 1 Hz) rTMS (LF-rTMS) can reduce excitability in the underlying cortex and/or promote inhibition. In patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) several TMS elicited features of motor corticospinal ...
A simple method to assess freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease patients
(Assoc Bras Divulg Cientifica, Sao Paulo, 2010)
Freezing of gait (FOG) can be assessed by clinical and instrumental methods. Clinical examination has the advantage of being available to most clinicians; however, it requires experience and may not reveal FOG even for ...
Low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and off-phase motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2010)
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can modulate cortical excitability and activation and consequently may affect clinical symptoms in neurological conditions characterized by altered motor cortex functions. ...
