Usually, cortical rhythmic activities are studied with local field potentials. To overcome small amplitude of EEGs easily disturbed by several factors, we developed a new method to study motor cortical rhythm using Motor evoked potentials (MEPs) to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). We, here, review triad-conditioning TMS technique for investigating the intrinsic rhythm of the human primary motor cortex (M1). MEP was recorded from the first dorsal interosseous muscle (FDI). TMS was applied over the M1 to study its frequency dependency. In the intervention condition, the subthreshold, same intensity three conditioning stimuli separated by a certain interval were given prior to the supra-threshold test stimulus. In the control condition, the test stimulus was given alone. MEPs were compared between the two conditions. In healthy volunteers, triad-conditioning stimulus (TCS) at an interval of 25 ms induced MEP facilitation, whereas the other intervals TCS induced no facilitation. This frequency dependent facilitation may reflect some intrinsic rhythm of M1 (25 ms, i.e. 40 Hz). In cortical myoclonus, the 40 ms TCS induced facilitation whereas 25 ms TCS induced no facilitation, which is consistent with abnormal rhythm of M1 at 25 Hz (40 ms interval) reported previously. In Parkinson's disease (PD), 25 ms TCS evoked no facilitation. Triad-conditioning TMS may enable us to investigate the intrinsic rhythmic activity of M1 and its abnormality.

人类运动皮层的三联体 TMS

通常,皮质节律活动是用局部场电位研究的。为了克服容易受到多种因素干扰的小幅度脑电图,我们开发了一种使用运动诱发电位 (MEP) 经颅磁刺激 (TMS) 研究运动皮层节律的新方法。我们在这里回顾了用于研究人类初级运动皮层 (M1) 内在节律的三联体调节 TMS 技术。MEP 是从第一背骨间肌 (FDI) 记录的。TMS 应用于 M1 以研究其频率依赖性。在干预条件下,在超阈值测试刺激之前给出阈下、相同强度的三个相隔一定间隔的条件刺激。在控制条件下,单独给予测试刺激。对两种条件之间的 MEP 进行了比较。在健康的志愿者中,以 25 ms 为间隔的三联体调节刺激 (TCS) 诱导 MEP 促进,而其他间隔 TCS 不诱导促进。这种依赖于频率的促进可能反映了 M1 的一些内在节奏(25 ms,即 40 Hz)。在皮质肌阵挛中,40 ms TCS 诱导了易化,而 25 ms TCS 没有诱导易化,这与之前报道的 M1 在 25 Hz(40 ms 间隔)的异常节律一致。在帕金森氏病 (PD) 中,25 毫秒 TCS 不会引起任何促进作用。Triad-conditioning TMS 可能使我们能够研究 M1 的内在节律活动及其异常。在皮质肌阵挛中,40 ms TCS 诱导了易化,而 25 ms TCS 没有诱导易化,这与之前报道的 M1 在 25 Hz(40 ms 间隔)的异常节律一致。在帕金森氏病 (PD) 中,25 毫秒 TCS 没有诱发任何促进作用。Triad-conditioning TMS 可能使我们能够研究 M1 的内在节律活动及其异常。在皮质肌阵挛中,40 ms TCS 诱导了易化,而 25 ms TCS 没有诱导易化,这与之前报道的 M1 在 25 Hz(40 ms 间隔)的异常节律一致。在帕金森氏病 (PD) 中,25 毫秒 TCS 不会引起任何促进作用。Triad-conditioning TMS 可能使我们能够研究 M1 的内在节律活动及其异常。
