Prolonged postexcitatory inhibition after transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex in patients with cerebellar ataxia

Postexcitatory inhibition after transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex (silent period, SP) is supposed to be predominantly mediated by the activation of inhibitory cortical interneurons. Cortical excitability seems to be reduced in patients with cerebellar ataxia. Motor threshold, cen...
