摘要: During the last decades electrophysiological studies using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) have demonstrated significant reorganization in corticospinal system after human spinal cord injury (SCI). Evidence has shown that latency and thresholds of motor evoked potentials (MEPs) elicited by TMS upper lower limb muscles are increased SCI regardless time injury. Electrophysiological indicated may contribute to aspects functional recovery SCI. Repetitive been used induce long-lasting changes excitability improvements outcomes but their effect remains limited inconsistent. Together, these revealed a large plastic capacity Increasing our knowledge role plasticity restoration support development more effective therapeutic strategies.
