Dissociation between behavior and motor cortical excitability before and during ballistic wrist flexion and extension in young and old adults.
Aging is associated with slow reactive movement generation and poor termination.We examined the hypothesis that the build-up of excitability in the primary motor cortex in the agonist muscle to generate ballistic wrist flexion and extension and in the antagonist to stop the movement, is lower and sl...
