Improved naming after transcranial direct current stimulation in aphasia. Commentaries

TL;DR: Whereas anodal and sham tDCS failed to induce any changes, cathodal tDCS significantly improved the accuracy of the picture naming task by a mean of 33.6% (SEM 13.8%).

Is Resting Anterior EEG Alpha Asymmetry a Trait Marker for Depression

TL;DR: Increased variability of anterior EEG asymmetry may be a characteristic feature for depression, and, if so, this would challenge the notion that anterior EEG alpha asymmetry is a trait marker for depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resting frontal electroencephalographic asymmetry in depression: Inconsistencies suggest the need to identify mediating factors

TL;DR: Two studies of the relationship between depression and resting frontal electroencephalographic (EEG) activity are reported and results are discussed in light of methodological considerations and mediating variables such as temperament and coping styles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emerging concepts in the physiological basis of dystonia

TL;DR: It is speculated that during motor learning this abnormal plasticity may lead to an abnormal sensorimotor integration, leading to consolidation of abnormal motor engrams, which might explain the delayed clinical effects of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with generalized dystonia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved naming after transcranial direct current stimulation in aphasia

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the effect of tDCS over the left frontotemporal areas in eight chronic non-fluent post-stroke aphasic patients and found that cathodal tDCS significantly improved the accuracy of picture naming task by a mean of 33.6% (SEM 13.8%).

Prefrontal cortex modulation using transcranial DC stimulation reduces alcohol craving: a double-blind, sham-controlled study

TL;DR: The findings showed that tDCS treatment to DLPFC can reduce alcohol craving, extending the results of previous studies using noninvasive brain stimulation to reduce craving in humans.
