Summary of percent changes in motor learning and TMS metrics in the right intervention and left non-intervention M1

MP SES MP + SES
Right hand or left M1
 Motor learning 29.3* 6.1* 25.2*
 CSE 43.6* 63.4* 18.9*
 SICI 16.4 21.3 1.6
 ICF 21.4 14.7 1.5
 IHI 14.2* −7.9* −1.1
 CLF 34.1* −14.1* 1.1
Left hand or right M1
 Motor learning 12.2* 6.4* 7.7*
 CSE 1.3 54.2* −13.7
 SICI 6.1 −21.8* 41.4*
 ICF 21 −3.4 −2.2
 IHI −9.5 −6.5 −1.8
 CLF 3 −0.2 −14.8

Values are mean percent changes based on individually computed changes

MP motor practice, SES somatosensory electrical stimulation, CSE corticospinal excitability, SICI short-interval intracortical inhibition (positive change denote decreases in inhibition), ICF intracortical facilitation, IHI interhemispheric inhibition (positive change denote reductions in inhibition), CLF contralateral facilitation
