Effects of repetitive mechanical tactile stimulation interventions with stationary and moving patterns on paired-pulse depression

Abstract Background Repetitive somatosensory stimulation (RSS) reduces paired-pulse depression (PPD), reflecting GABAergic inhibition in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1). This effect may vary by tactile stimulation pattern. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify the effects of RSS intervention...
