Intramuscular electrical stimulus potentiates the motor cortex modulation effects on pain and descending inhibitory systems in knee osteoarthritis: a randomized, factorial, sham-controlled study
Maria da Graca-Tarragó,Mateus Correa Lech,Leticia Dal Moro Angoleri,Daniela Silva Santos,Alícia Deitos,Aline Patrícia Brietzke,Iraci Ls Torres,Felipe Fregni,Wolnei Caumo +8 more
TL;DR: This study provides additional evidence regarding additive clinical effects to improve pain measures and descending pain inhibitory controls when the neuromodulation of the primary motor cortex with tDCS is combined with a bottom-up modulation with EIMS in KOA.

TL;DR: Preliminary efficacy results demonstrate promising clinical efficacy of home-based tDCS paired with MBM for older adults with knee OA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined transcranial direct current stimulation and psychological interventions: State of the art and promising perspectives for clinical psychology.
TL;DR: More basic mechanisms related to the brain state-dependency of tDCS are explored and how future studies may contribute to the development of personally-tailored dual active treatments by adhering to the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) framework is discussed.

Strengthening of Existing Episodic Memories Through Non-invasive Stimulation of Prefrontal Cortex in Older Adults with Subjective Memory Complaints.
Rosa Manenti,Marco Sandrini,Elena Gobbi,Chiara Cobelli,Michela Brambilla,Giuliano Binetti,Maria Cotelli +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that tDCS after a contextual reminder can induce long-lasting beneficial effects by facilitating the consolidation processes and opens up the possibility to design specific non-invasive interventions aimed at preventing memory decline in this at-risk population.

TL;DR: The first report on a patient with treatment-refractory OC disorder treated with sertraline and an enhanced prefrontal tDCS protocol with a classic left-anodal/right cathodal montage experiencing a 22% reduction of OC symptoms as well as reduction in depression and anxiety symptoms is provided.

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
Rita Z. Goldstein,Nora D. Volkow +1 more
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.
