However, the subjective nature of current intraoperative hand motor assessments do not offer a comprehensive understanding of how hand strength and function may be impacted by resection. Additionally, there is a paucity of data to inform how altering DES parameters may effect motor mapping. Here, the investigators seek to demonstrate a feasible, standardized protocol to quantitatively assess hand strength and function and systematically assess several stimulation parameters to improve intraoperative measurements and better understand how cortical stimulation interacts with underlying neural function.",[28,29,30],"Brain Tumor","Brain Cancer","Motor Cortex; Lesion",[32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41],"Brain Stimulation","Cortex Stimulation","Hand Motor Cortex","Primary Motor Cortex","M1","Resection","Surgery","Healthy Volunteers","Hand Strength","Hand Function","RECRUITING","2026-05-05",{"date":45,"type":46},"2026-05-11","ACTUAL",{"date":48,"type":46},"2023-04-17",{"date":50,"type":22},"2028-12-01",{"name":52,"class":53},"Medical College of Wisconsin","OTHER",1,{"id":56,"slug":57,"hasResults":11,"nctId":58,"briefTitle":59,"officialTitle":60,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":61,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":17,"minAge":18,"maxAge":62,"enrollmentInfo":63,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":65,"briefSummary":66,"conditions":67,"keywords":71,"overallStatus":78,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":79,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":80,"startDateStruct":82,"completionDateStruct":84,"leadSponsor":86,"locationsCount":4},"100419702","a-study-using-brain-stimulation-and-behavioral-therapy-to-increase-extent-of-resection-in-low-grade-gliomas-100419702","NCT04745156","A Study Using Brain Stimulation and Behavioral Therapy to Increase Extent of Resection in Low-Grade Gliomas","Inducing Functional Plasticity in Glioma-Involved Functional Cortex With Deficit-Inducing Cortical Stimulation and Targeted Behavioral Therapy to Increase Extent of Resection","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
