Cortical excitation does not drive changes in skin sympathetic nerve activity during single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation in humans.

We have shown that single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) inhibits muscle sympathetic nerve activity. However, this was likely due to arousal caused by the TMS pulses themselves, rather than…
