Background/Purpose: To examine the influence of interpulse interval duration on knee
extensor corticospinal excitability. Methods: Seventeen college-aged males and females …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) measures the excitability and inhibition of
corticomotor networks. Despite its task-specificity, few studies have used TMS during …

Purpose Repetitive or sustained simple muscle contractions have been shown to alter
corticomotor excitability. The present study investigated the effects of a sustained handgrip …

The aim of this study was to determine the applicability and reliability of a transcranial
magnetic stimulation twitch interpolation technique for measuring voluntary activation of a …

In studying neuromuscular fatigability, researchers commonly use functional criteria to
position and hold the transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) coil during testing sessions …

Introduction: Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an important tool to examine
neurological pathologies, movement disorders, and central nervous system responses to …

Afferent input caused by electrical stimulation of a peripheral nerve increases corticospinal
excitability during voluntary contractions, indicating that proprioceptive sensory input arriving …

This study examined inter-session and intra-session transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)
reliability at two test stimulus intensities in the knee extensors. Strong and weak TMS was …

Repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) induces proprioceptive afferents and
facilitates corticospinal excitability. Short-term sessions of rPMS combined with motor …

We examined if transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a valid tool for assessment of
voluntary activation of the knee extensors in healthy individuals. Maximal M-waves (Mmax) …
