It also sought to identify the predictors of disability status of patients with MS based on their manu...

Numerous studies suggest that interhemispheric inhibition-relayed via the corpus callosum-plays an important role in unilateral hand motions. Interestingly, transcallosal inhibition appears to be indicative of a strong laterality effect, where generally the dominant hemisphere exerts inhibition on the nondominant one. These effects have been largely identified through functional studies in adul...

Electrical stimulation of deep brain structures, such as globus pallidus and subthalamic nucleus, is widely accepted as a therapeutic tool for patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Cortical stimulation either with epidural implanted electrodes or repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation can be associated with motor function enhancement in PD. We aimed to study the effects of another nonin...

The objective of this study was to assess a cohort of Gaucher disease patients and their heterozygous carrier relatives for potential clinical signs of early neurodegeneration. Gaucher disease patients (n = 30), heterozygous glucocerebrosidase mutation carriers (n = 30), and mutation-negative controls matched by age, sex, and ethnicity (n = 30) were recruited. Assessment was done for olfactory ...

The corticospinal tract (CST) is a major neural tract for motor function in the human brain. In addition, CST is mainly concerned with execution of movement of the hand (Jang, 2014). However, few studies are reported on the mechanism underlying CST recovery after traumatic brain injury (Seo and Jang, 2015). In this study, we report on a case that showed recovery of an injured CST by traumatic a...
