Beta-Range Corticomuscular Coupling Reflects Asymmetries in Hand Movement

Hand movement in humans is verified as asymmetries and lateralization, and two hemispheres make some distinct but complementary contributions in the control of hand movement. However, little research has been done on whether the information transfer of the motor system is different between left and right hand movement. Considering the importance of functional corticomuscular coupling (FCMC) between the motor cortex and contralateral muscle in movement assessment, this study aimed to explore the differences between left and right hand by investigating the interaction between muscle and brain activity. Here, we applied the transfer spectral entropy (TSE) algorithm to quantize the connection between electroencephalogram (EEG) over the brain scalp and electromyogram (EMG) from extensor digitorum (ED) and flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) muscles recorded simultaneously during a gripping task. Eight healthy subjects were enrolled in this study. Results showed that left hand yield ed narrower and lower beta synchronization compared to the right. Further analysis indicated coupling strength in EEG-EMG(FDS) combination was higher at beta band than that in EEG-EMG(ED) combination, and exhibited distinct differences between descending (EEG to EMG direction) and ascending (EMG to EEG direction) direction. This study presents the distinctions of beta-range FCMC between left and right hand, and confirms the importance of beta synchronization in understanding the mechanism of motor stability control. The cortex-muscle FCMC might be used as an evaluation approach to explore the difference between left and right movement system.
