Summary

Corticomuscular coherence (CMC) in the beta range strengthens with increased dynamic force levels. This indicates the sensorimotor system uses enhanced beta-band CMC for stable corticospinal interaction during dynamic tasks.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Motor Control
  • Human Physiology

Background:

  • Corticomuscular synchronization, measured by corticomuscular coherence (CMC), is observed in beta and gamma frequency bands during force compensation.
  • Previous research linked beta-band CMC to static forces and gamma-band CMC to dynamic forces, but its modulation with increasing dynamic force levels remained unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate how corticomuscular coherence (CMC) in beta and gamma ranges is affected by increasing levels of dynamic force compensation.
  • To examine changes in cortical and muscular spectral power under varying dynamic force conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Investigated CMC between electroencephalogram (EEG) and electromyogram (EMG) of the first dorsal interosseus (FDI) muscle.
  • Participants (N=7) performed isometric force compensation at 8%, 16%, and 24% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) in a visuomotor task.
  • Analyzed cortical and muscular spectral power alongside CMC.

Main Results:

  • A broad-band CMC, encompassing beta and gamma ranges and peaking around 22 Hz in the beta band, was observed across all force levels.
  • This broad-band CMC increased linearly with higher force levels.
  • No significant modulation of gamma-band CMC or significant differences in EEG/EMG spectral power were found across force conditions.

Conclusions:

  • The function of beta-range CMC extends beyond static forces, playing a role in dynamic force compensation.
  • The sensorimotor system utilizes stronger and broader beta-range CMC for stable corticospinal interaction during increased and dynamic force demands.
  • Beta-range EEG-EMG coherence is crucial for sensorimotor integration, particularly under challenging motor tasks.
