Does unilateral grip fatigue reduce short interval intracortical inhibition in ipsilateral primary motor cortex?
We conclude that unilateral exhaustive grip exercise reduced the excitability of the corticospinal output of the ipsilateral motor cortex whilst simultaneously reducing the excitability of SICI. These results would be compatible with the idea that fatigue increases the tonic level of interhemispheric inhibition from the fatigued to the non-fatigued cortex.
The main difference between the patterns of DO is that PDO occurs in younger individuals. There is no significant difference between urodynamic characteristics of each pattern whatever gender or neurological status. Further studies will provide additional information on the impact of the level of neurological lesion on the pattern of DO.
