Figure 2. Recovery of motor responses in leg muscles following motor cortex stimulation in quadriplegic patients.

Figure 2

(A) Schematic overview of experiments. Motor responses were recorded in the left and right tibialis anterior muscles following transcranial magnetic stimulation applied over the motor cortex. (B) Representative EMG traces of left and right motor responses at early and chronic time-points after SCI for a patient with symmetrical versus asymmetrical deficits. (C) Mean gains in the amplitude of the motor responses on the less and more affected sides in patients with a low vs. high LI. (D) The latency of motor responses from the less and more affected sides in patients with a low vs. high LI. For (C and D), *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, unpaired Student’s t-test. Data are means +/- s.e.m. (n = 34).
