I'm so grateful that @roselynechauvin.bsky.social analyzed subcortical effects of limb-casting on resting-state brain activity! These effects mirror those seen in Parkinson's disease, perhaps because both conditions involve disuse and plasticity that suppresses future limb movements

It turns out the brain🧠is silently🤫working when your arm is in a cast. 🩼 🚧
Plastic changes occur, and revert again when the cast is removed … not just in cortex.
