TL;DR: New operational guidelines are provided for safety in planning future trials based on traditional and patterned TMS protocols, as well as a summary of the minimal training requirements for operators, and a note on ethics of neuroenhancement.

Improved naming after transcranial direct current stimulation in aphasia. Commentaries
Stefano F. Cappa,Alessia Monti,Filippo Cogiamanian,Sara Marceglia,Roberta Ferrucci,F. Mameli,Simona Mrakic-Sposta,Maurizio Vergari,Stefano Zago +8 more
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%).

TL;DR: Work is ongoing to test whether the reliability and consistency of non-invasive transcranial brain stimulation can be improved by controlling or monitoring neuronal state and by optimizing the protocol and timing of stimulation.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Effects in Disorders of Consciousness
Efthymios Angelakis,Evangelia Liouta,Nikos Andreadis,Stephanos Korfias,Periklis Ktonas,George Stranjalis,Damianos E. Sakas +6 more
TL;DR: tDCS seems promising for the rehabilitation of patients with severe disorders of consciousness, but 1 patient who was in a PVS/UWS for 6 years before treatment showed improvement and change of status to an MCS at 12 months follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcranial direct current stimulation of the affected hemisphere does not accelerate recovery of acute stroke patients
TL;DR: Transcranial direct current stimulation is a potential tool to improve motor deficits in chronic stroke patients and safety and efficacy of this procedure in acute stroke patients are not yet addressed.

Modelling the electric field and the current density generated by cerebellar transcranial DC stimulation in humans.
Marta Parazzini,Elena Rossi,Roberta Ferrucci,Roberta Ferrucci,Ilaria Liorni,Alberto Priori,Alberto Priori,Paolo Ravazzani +7 more
TL;DR: Modeling approach reveals that during cerebellar tDCS the current spread to other structures outside the cerebellum is unlike to produce functional effects, thus further supporting the safety of this technique.

Ipsilateral activation of the unaffected motor cortex in patients with hemiparetic stroke.
M.Donatella Caramia,M.Giuseppina Palmieri,Patrizia Giacomini,Cesare Iani,Leonard Dally,Mauro Silvestrini +5 more
TL;DR: TMS reveals a specific area in the motor cortex from which ipsilateral MEPs can be elicited and both TMS and TCD indicate that an ips bilateral corticospinal tract can be accessible in some adult controls or becomes unmasked after cerebral damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methods of therapeutic cortical stimulation.
TL;DR: This review presents the methods of therapeutic cortical stimulation that are currently applicable and some of their principles and it must be emphasized that the site(s) of action can be distant from the site of stimulation because axons with remote projections are more prone to be activated than local cell bodies.
