## Abstract Somesthetic temporal discrimination (STD) is impaired in focal hand dystonia (FHD). We explored the electrophysiological correlate of the STD deficit to assess whether this is due to dysfunction of temporal inhibition in the somatosensory inhibitory pathway or due to dysfunction in stru

## Abstract Focal hand dystonia (FHD) is a movement disorder that is also associated with impaired sensory function and sensorimotor integration. The aim of this study was to assess the modulation of inhibitory function in the motor cortex during the performance of four motor tasks (isometric pinch
## Abstract We looked for an impaired interaction in the primary motor cortex between intracortical inhibitory circuits and circuits fed by somatosensory inputs in patients with writer's cramp. Shortβinterval intracortical inhibition (sICI) to wrist extensor carpi radialis muscle (ECR) was conditio
