Analysis of the stable correlation of asymmetry of the acoustic stem evoked potentials intervals with parameters of bimanual coordination was performed. Different mechanisms of the auditory asymmetry at the stem level were found in men and women. Optimum bimanual performance in men is provided by adequate co-adjustment of sensor-motor system elements, and is connected with sensory input and the feature of its bilateral irradiation through the right input. The left channel input and its sensory asymmetry is much more important in women. Bilateral irradiation in this case does not lead to adequate integration of the systems elements in performance of the motor task, that indicates the lower level of bimanual coordination.

When engaged in dynamic or continuous movements, action initiation involves modifying an ongoing motor program rather than initiating it from rest. Event-related theta synchronization over sensorimotor areas is a neurophysiological marker for modifying motor programs. We used electroencephalography (EEG) to examine how task complexity and age affect event-related synchronization (ERS) in the theta band during a dynamic bimanual, visuomotor pinch force task.

Most activities of daily life involve some degree of coordinated, bimanual activity from the upper limbs. However, compared to single-handed movements, bimanual movements are processed, learned, and controlled from both hemispheres of the brain. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that enhances motor learning by modulating the activity of movement-associated brain regions.

The Bimanual Observation of The Hands (BOTH): Development, reliability, and validity for stroke rehabilitation.

PLoS One

Department of Occupational Therapy, School of Health Professions, Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel.

Importance: To efficiently perform bimanual daily tasks, bimanual coordination is needed. Bimanual coordination is the interaction between an individual's hands, which may be impaired post-stroke, however clinical and functional assessments are lacking and research is limited.

Objectives: To develop a valid and reliable observation tool to assess bimanual coordination of individuals post-stroke.

Hand-arm bimanual intensive therapy (HABIT) enhances upper extremity (UE) function and bimanual coordination in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP). Previous studies assessed immediate improvements in UE function using clinical and self-reported measures, which may not accurately reflect real-world UE performance and their long-term retention effects. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the retention of real-world bimanual performance gains over time following HABIT in children with UCP.

In current neuroscience, there is a pressing need to evaluate the effectiveness of treatments for motor and cognitive disorders. In addition, there is a gap in the literature on assessing this type of rehabilitation. This review proposes using Movement-Related Potentials (MRPs) as a relevant marker for such evaluations.
