Fig. 2From: The association of motor imagery and kinesthetic illusion prolongs the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on corticospinal tract excitabilityExperimental timeline. Interventions were conducted for 15 min each. Cortical excitability was examined using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) prior to the intervention to establish control conditions (Baseline MEP = pre-intervention, PRE = 15 min after baseline MEP) and at timed intervals after the intervention (Post0 = 0 min post-intervention, Post30 = 30 min, and Post60 = 60 min). We calculated the ratio of MEP amplitudes at each post-intervention time-point relative to baseline MEPs [(MEP amplitude at each stage – baseline MEP amplitude)/baseline MEP amplitude × 100]Back to article page
