Impaired short-term plasticity in Restless Legs Syndrome: a pilot rTMS study

Previous studies showed an impairment of the LTP-like plasticity to TMS in Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Clinically, repetitive TMS (rTMS) was effective in alleviating the sensory-motor complaints of patients, although the effects induced by low-frequency (inhibitory) rTMS have not been investigated yet. An impaired LTD-like mechanism of cortical plasticity has been hypothesized, which we have directly assessed in this pilot study.
