Abstract:Short‐ and long‐latency afferent inhibition (SAI and LAI respectively) are phenomenon whereby the motor evoked potential induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is inhibited by a sensory afferent volley consequent to nerve stimulation. It remains unclear whether dopamine participates in the genesis or modulation of SAI and LAI. The present study aimed to determine if SAI and LAI are modulated by levodopa (l‐DOPA). In this placebo‐controlled, double‐anonymized study Apo‐Levocarb (100 mg l‐DOPA in com… Show more
