Abstract
⺠In FHD LTP-like plasticity is abnormal (reduced after iTBS and increased after PAS25). ⺠FHD reduces early motor learning and motor retention. ⺠Simple writer's cramp patients move faster than dystonic writer's cramp patients. ⺠The degree of early motor learning correlates with dystonia duration and severity. ⺠Experimentally- and behaviorally-induced LTP-like plasticity are altered in FHD.
