Article Synopsis
  • - The study focused on how parieto-motor paired stimulation affects brain plasticity in patients with writer's cramp (WC) and cervical dystonia (CD) compared to healthy volunteers.
  • - Using paired transcranial magnetic stimulation, researchers found that the stimulation increased motor cortex excitability in WC patients but not in CD patients or healthy individuals.
  • - The results indicate that while the stimulation enhances brain function in WC, it doesn't seem to relate to changes in the connectivity between the posterior parietal cortex and the motor cortex.

Surround inhibition (SI) in the motor system is important in individuation of actions, but is sometimes difficult to demonstrate. It has also not been evaluated in real life tasks. In this study, we use real life tasks and a new method where excitability of the surround muscle is assessed with respect to its current activity level rather than when it is at rest.

was resurrected from in 1986 and was included as a genus by Round, Crawford and Mann ("The Diatoms") in its own Family and Order. They commented that there might be several genera involved since the type species of the genus possesses a double-walled structure and other taxa placed in have only a single-walled structure. Two other genera of "big sticks," and , were placed in their own Families and Orders but share many characters with Ardissoneaceae, especially growth from a bifacial annulus.
