Tactile Imagery (TI) remains a fairly understudied phenomenon despite growing attention to
this topic in recent years. Here, we investigated the effects of TI on corticospinal excitability …

This paper discusses some of the practical limitations and issues, which exist for the input–
output (IO) slope curve estimation (SCE) in neural, brain and spinal, stimulation techniques …

Background Restoration of limb function for individuals with unilateral weakness typically
requires volitional muscle control, which is often not present for individuals with severe …

Adult-onset hypothyroidism impairs normal brain function. Research on animal models of
hypothyroidism has revealed critical information on how deficiency of thyroid hormones …

Motor skill practice improves performance not only in the trained-but also in the untrained
contralateral limb-a phenomenon called as interlimb transfer. Handedness affects motor skill …

Brain-computer interface (BCI) has helped people by allowing them to control a computer or
machine through brain activity without actual body movement. Despite this advantage, BCI …

Background The mechanical tactile stimulation, such as plastic pins and airflow-driven
membrane, induces cortical activity. The cortical activity depends on the mechanical tactile …

The present study examined whether tactile perception of the fingertip modulates excitability
of the motor cortex supplying the intrinsic hand muscle and whether this modulation is …

The different cortical activity evoked by a mechanical tactile stimulus depends on tactile
stimulus patterns, which demonstrates that simple stimuli (ie, global synchronous stimulation …

This study demonstrates the feasibility of a mid-air means of haptic stimulation at a long
distance using the plasma effect induced by laser. We hypothesize that the stress wave …
