Abstract
Investigators at the Clinical Epilepsy and Neurorehabilitation Sections, NIH, Bethesda, MD; Albert Ludwigs University, Freiberg, Germany; and Children's National Medical Center, Washington, DC used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to quantify the excitation and inhibition in primary motor cortex in 8 patients (mean age 15.4 years) with succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency.
Highlights
Researchers in the Departments of Medicine and Neurology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, IL evaluated the effect of simulation
Long interval intracortical inhibition was significantly reduced and the cortical silent period was significantly shortened in patients with succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency compared to heterozygous parents and controls
transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) may be helpful in detection of homozygous carriers and in diagnosis of SSADH deficiency
