Proprioceptive afference can be investigated using corticokinematic coherence (CKC), which indicates coupling between limb kinematics and cortical activity. CKC has been quantified using proprioceptive stimulation (movement actuators) with fixed inter-stimulus interval (ISI). However, it is unclear how regularity of the stimulus sequence (jitter) affects CKC strength. Eighteen healthy volunteers (16 right-handed, 27.8±5.0 yrs, 7 females) participated in magnetoencephalography (MEG) session in which their right-index finger was continuously moved at ~3-Hz with constant 333 ms ISI or with 20% jitter (ISI 333±66 ms) using a pneumatic-movement actuator. Three minutes of data per condition was collected. Finger kinematics were recorded with a 3-axis accelerometer. CKC strength was defined as the peak coherence value in the Rolandic MEG gradiometer pair contralateral to the movement at 3-Hz. Both conditions resulted in significant coherence peaking in the gradiometers over the primary sensorimotor cortex. Constant stimulation yielded stronger CKC at 3 Hz (0.78±0.11 vs. 0.66±0.13, p<0.001) and its first harmonic (0.60±0.19 vs. 0.27±0.11, p<0.001) than irregular stimulation. Similarly, the respective sustained-movement evoked field was also stronger for constant stimulation. The results emphasize the importance of temporal stability of the proprioceptive stimulation sequence when quantifying CKC strength. The weaker CKC during irregular stimulation can be explained with temporal and thus spectral scattering of the paired peripheral and cortical events beyond the mean stimulation frequency. This impairs the signal-to-noise ratio of respective MEG signal and thus CKC strength. When accurately estimating and following changes in CKC strength, we suggest using precise movement actuators with constant stimulation sequence.

Proprioceptive response strength in the primary sensorimotor cortex is invariant to the range of finger movement
Nurmi, Timo; Hakonen, Maria; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Piitulainen, Harri (Elsevier, 2023)Proprioception is the sense of body position and movement that relies on afference from the proprioceptors in muscles and joints. Proprioceptive responses in the primary sensorimotor (SM1) cortex can be elicited by stimulating ... -

We studied whether ... -
Volitional muscle activation intensifies neuronal processing of proprioceptive afference in the primary sensorimotor cortex : an EEG study
Giangrande, Alessandra; Cerone, Giacinto Luigi; Botter, Alberto; Piitulainen, Harri (American Physiological Society, 2024)Proprioception refers to the ability to perceive the position and movement of body segments in space. The cortical aspects of the proprioceptive afference from the body can be investigated using corticokinematic coherence ... -
