A recent study has found a correlation between the different phases of a heartbeat and brain excitability. Conducted on a sample group of 37 individuals, the research employed transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to monitor changes in the cortical and corticospinal systems. The findings indicate that certain phases of the heartbeat are associated with increased brain and motor system excitability, which could have significant implications for understanding and treating neurological disorders. The study sheds new light on the complex relationship between the heart and the brain, emphasizing the importance of considering cardiovascular factors in evaluating brain function and potential treatments.
