Focal stimulation of the posterior parietal cortex increases the excitability of the ipsilateral motor cortex.
Paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been applied as a probe to test functional connectivity within distinct cortical areas of the human motor system. Here, we tested the interaction between the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and ipsilateral motor cortex (M1). A conditioning TMS pulse over the right PPC potentiates motor evoked-potentials evoked by a test TMS pulse over the...
متن کاملOsteoporosis and the Management of Spinal Degenerative Disease (II)
Osteoporosis has become a major medical problem as the aged population of the world rapidly grows. Osteoporosis predisposes patients to fracture, progressive spinal deformities, and stenosis, and is subject to be a major concern before performing spine surgery, especially with bone fusions and instrumentation. Osteoporosis has often been considered a contraindication for spinal surgery, while i...

متن کاملDegenerative Changes in the Cerebral Cortex in Swayback Disease Lambs
The associationof copper deficinecy with the pathologic changes in swayback disease has been established by several people. The low copper levels in the blood is either as a result of low copper content in pastures which the animals graze or due to interference with copper metabolism by some elements (molybdenum, sulphur and iron) [Mc Dowell et al., 1993]. In Trinidad swayback is a fairly commo...
متن کاملSkipping Posterior Dynamic Transpedicular Stabilization for Distant Segment Degenerative Disease
Objective. To date, there is still no consensus on the treatment of spinal degenerative disease. Current surgical techniques to manage painful spinal disorders are imperfect. In this paper, we aimed to evaluate the prospective results of posterior transpedicular dynamic stabilization, a novel surgical approach that skips the segments that do not produce pain. This technique has been proven biom...
