Transcranial direct current stimulation: State of the art 2008
Michael A. Nitsche,Leonardo G. Cohen,Eric M. Wassermann,Alberto Priori,Nicolas Lang,Andrea Antal,Walter Paulus,Friedhelm C. Hummel,Paulo S. Boggio,Felipe Fregni,Alvaro Pascual-Leone +10 more
TL;DR: An overview of the state of the art for transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is offered, which suggests that it can induce beneficial effects in brain disorders and facilitate and standardize future tDCS studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depression of motor cortex excitability by low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation.
Robert Chen,Joseph Classen,Christian Gerloff,Pablo Celnik,Eric M. Wassermann,Mark Hallett,Leonardo G. Cohen +6 more
TL;DR: Spread of excitation, which may be a warning sign for seizures, occurred in one subject and was not accompanied by increased MEP amplitude, suggesting that spread ofexcitation and amplitude changes are different phenomena and also indicating the need for adequate monitoring even with stimulations at low frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcranial DC stimulation (tDCS): a tool for double-blind sham-controlled clinical studies in brain stimulation.
TL;DR: The feasibility of using tDCS in double-blind, sham-controlled randomized trials in clinical Neurorehabilitation is supported and tDCS could evolve into a useful tool, in addition to TMS, to modulate cortical activity in Neurore Rehabilitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of plasticity in the human motor cortex by paired associative stimulation.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the induced plasticity may represent a signature of associative long-term potentiation of cortical synapses or closely related neuronal mechanisms in the human cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of interhemispheric interactions on motor function in chronic stroke
Nagako Murase,Julie Duque,Julie Duque,Riccardo Mazzocchio,Riccardo Mazzocchio,Leonardo G. Cohen +5 more
TL;DR: An abnormally high interhemispheric inhibitory drive from M1intact hemisphere to M1lesioned hemisphere in the process of generation of a voluntary movement by the paretic hand is document, conceivable that this abnormality could adversely influence motor recovery in some patients with subcortical stroke.
