Primary motor hand area corticospinal excitability indicates overall functional recovery after spinal cord injury

BackgroundAfter spinal cord injury (SCI), the excitability of the primary motor cortex (M1) lower extremity area decreases or disappears. A recent study reported that the M1 hand area of the SCI patient encodes the activity information of both the upper and lower extremities. However, the characteri...
