M1 excitability and inhibition changes, and relation to BBT-change
Dextrain N
Combined TMS results across both groups are presented since sample sizes were small (Dextrain N = 3; CT N = 7). Neuronavigated single-pulse TMS (Fig. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) results. A non-significant increment in SICI% (increased inhibition) was found after training (across groups: pre-training = 23 ± 23% vs post-training = 38 ± 26%; P = 0.2).The relation between change in SICI% and rMT% with BBT-change was studied using Spearman rank correlation. Across the two groups, BBT-change correlated significantly with SICI% change (Rho = − 0.8, P = 0.0056; Fig.
