Values are means ± SD from six subjects. Resting motor threshold is given as a percentage of maximal stimulator output, MEP size is in millivolts, and ICI is given as a percentage of control MEP size. MT(BB), Motor threshold for biceps brachii muscle; MT(APB), motor threshold for abductor pollicis brevis muscle.
