A neurophysiological approach to mirror movements in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

CONCLUSIONS: Mirror activity is a common phenomenon in ALS. Mirror activity intensity corresponds to the severity of UMN dysfunction, as measured by TMS, and probably derives from the abnormal transcallosal inhibition as mirrored by iSP abnormality.SIGNIFICANCE: Mirror activity is increased in ALS and is associated with abnormal transcallosal inhibition and UMN dysfunction.PMID:38142663 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2023.12.002
