| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, the effects of dual-task performance on the corticospinal tract and those of exercise training on the corticospinal tract during dual-task performance are analyzed using motor-evoked potential (MEP) and cortical silent period (CSP), elicited by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Long-term exercise training induced plastic changes at the upper spinal cord, including the primary motor cortex (M1), and altered the balance between excitation and suppression in the cerebral cortical neurons. In addition, short-term training diminished the cortical suppression (disinhibition) to overcome motor-output interference, which lowers the excitability of the corticospinal tract during dual-task performance.
