Home treatment against fatigue in multiple sclerosis by a personalized, bilateral whole-body somatosensory cortex stimulation

Tecchio Franca, +12 more
- 01 Apr 2022 - 
TL;DR: Faremus as discussed by the authors is a 5-day anodal tDCS over the bilateral whole-body somatosensory cortex, which can be feasibly, safely and efficaciously applied at patients' home, offering a comfortable treatment by reducing the need to travel when fatigue-related symptoms hamper the quality of life.

New Results on Brain Stimulation in Chronic Pain

Andrea Antal, +2 more
TL;DR: Here, the stimulation of the primary motor cortex (M1) plays a central role and non-invasive DC stimulation or repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) are considered effective in pain treatment.

Sensory neurologic disorders: Tinnitus.

Zeina Chemali, +2 more
- 01 Jan 2019 - 
TL;DR: With a better understanding of the etiologic factors and comorbidities of tinnitus, additional research trials and new therapeutic approaches could see the light to tackle this public health disability bringing hope to patients and doctors.

Does Cathodal vs. Sham Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Over Contralesional Motor Cortex Enhance Upper Limb Motor Recovery Post-stroke? A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Joyce L. Chen, +7 more
- 15 Apr 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of cathodal tDCS to contralesional motor cortex (M1) on motor recovery were evaluated by pooling five randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and comparing the change in Fugl-Meyer upper extremity scores between cathode and sham tDCS groups.

Bilateral Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex High-Definition Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation Improves Time-Trial Performance in Elite Cyclists

Luca Pollastri, +7 more
- 01 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that bilateral HD-tDCS on the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex improves cycling TT performance without altering the physiological and perceptual response at moderate intensity, indicating that an upregulation of the prefrontal cortex could enhance endurance exercise performance.

Excitability changes induced in the human motor cortex by weak transcranial direct current stimulation.

Michael A. Nitsche, +1 more
- 01 Sep 2000 - 
TL;DR: Transcranial electrical stimulation using weak current may be a promising tool to modulate cerebral excitability in a non‐invasive, painless, reversible, selective and focal way.

Neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease

Michael T. Heneka, +41 more
- 01 Apr 2015 - 
TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis suggests that several genes that increase the risk for sporadic Alzheimer's disease encode factors that regulate glial clearance of misfolded proteins and the inflammatory reaction.

Publication bias in clinical research

P.J Easterbrook, +3 more
- 13 Apr 1991 - 
TL;DR: The presence of publication bias in a cohort of clinical research studies is confirmed and it is suggested that conclusions based only on a review of published data should be interpreted cautiously, especially for observational studies.

Theory for the development of neuron selectivity: orientation specificity and binocular interaction in visual cortex

Elie Bienenstock, +2 more
TL;DR: The development of stimulus selectivity in the primary sensory cortex of higher vertebrates is considered in a general mathematical framework and a synaptic evolution scheme of a new kind is proposed in which incoming patterns rather than converging afferents compete.

Drug Addiction and Its Underlying Neurobiological Basis: Neuroimaging Evidence for the Involvement of the Frontal Cortex

Rita Z. Goldstein, +1 more
- 01 Oct 2002 - 
TL;DR: An integrated model of drug addiction that encompasses intoxication, bingeing, withdrawal, and craving is proposed, and results imply that addiction connotes cortically regulated cognitive and emotional processes, which result in the overvaluing of drug reinforcers, the undervalued of alternative rein forcers, and deficits in inhibitory control for drug responses.
