Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pinch force MVC can be increased by muscle hypertrophy and by improved recruitment of volitional drive from motor cortex. We examined whether brief excitability of corticospinal output induced by two pair pulses (1.5ms /2.0 ms ISI) /single pulse of 100%RMT TMS and by pre PAS for 15min (0.2 Hz) would improve MVC more effectively than training alone. 5 groups of subjects trained on 4 alternate days. They performed 4 brief sets of MVC training by 5min rest. Each set consisted of 3 MVCs (2s duration) by 1min rest. SICI and SICF were assessed before the start of the first and after the end of the last training sessions. Training with superimposed 1.5ms TMS pulses increased pinch MVC more than in other groups. SICI and SICF were significantly less and more effects by the training in only 1.5ms TMS group, respectively. There was no change in either measure in other groups. Brief excitability by good ISI weak TMS during MVC training is an effective way of improving central drive to muscles.
