DIY tDCS: a need for an empirical look

TL;DR: In neuroscience, recent phenomenal advances in neuroscience have spurred technological progress on direct biological brain interventions and one of these intervention technologies gaining momentum is transcranial dire intervention as discussed by the authors, which is a direct brain intervention.

The Onset of Diabetes During Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Treatment of Anorexia Nervosa - A Case Report.

TL;DR: The development of hyperglycemia and the following onset of type I diabetes during a series of tDCS in a 24-year old Caucasian female patient treated with the research protocol for anorexia nervosa is outlined.

Hemispheric Asymmetries in Emotion Processing

TL;DR: The two hemispheres are thought to play different roles for processing and experiencing emotions, but the exact nature of their respective contributions is still a matter of debate.

Enhancement of semantic integration reasoning by tRNS

TL;DR: The authors investigated the specificity of the right parietal and temporal lobes for semantic integration using transcranial Random Noise Stimulation (tRNS) and found that tRNS stimulation over the right temporal lobe enhances CRA accuracy and reduces response time on the same task (−2,100 ms).

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

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

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

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

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.
