TL;DR: The present finding supports a direct involvement of gamma oscillatory activity in the mechanisms underlying higher-order human cognition, as well as selectively enhanced performance only on more complex trials involving conditional/logical reasoning.

TL;DR: A new placebo tool is introduced here, called real electro-magnetic placebo (REMP) device, which can simulate the scalp sensation induced by the real TMS, while leaving both the visual impact and acoustic sensation of real T MS unaltered.

TL;DR: The findings strongly suggest that voluntary M1 activation by real or imagined movement of the contralateral hand increases interhemispheric motor inhibition of the opposite M1.

TL;DR: Electroencephalography recordings suggest that cortical reactivity and connectivity are severely impaired in all VS patients, whereas in most MCS patients, the TEPs are preserved but with abnormal features, which may add valuable information to the current clinical and neurophysiological assessment of chronic consciousness disorders.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that anger and disgust are the two most impaired expressions in PD patients and contactless video-based systems can be important techniques for analyzing facial expressions also in rehabilitation, in particular speech therapy, where patients could get a definite advantage from a real-time feedback about the proper facial expressions/movements to perform.
