Studying and modifying brain function with non-invasive brain stimulation.

Rafael Polania, +3 more
- 08 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: The state of non-invasive brain stimulation research in humans is summarized, some current debates about properties and limitations of these methods are discussed, and recommendations for how these challenges may be addressed are given.

International Parkinson and movement disorder society evidence‐based medicine review: Update on treatments for the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease

Susan H. Fox, +7 more
- 01 Aug 2018 - 
TL;DR: The objective of this review was to update evidence‐based medicine recommendations for treating motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease with new recommendations for treatment of central nervous system symptoms.

Safety and recommendations for TMS use in healthy subjects and patient populations, with updates on training, ethical and regulatory issues: Expert Guidelines

Simone Rossi, +36 more
- 01 Jan 2021 - 
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, +8 more
- 01 Jan 2008 - 
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%).

Plasticity induced by non-invasive transcranial brain stimulation: A position paper.

Ying-Zu Huang, +14 more
- 01 Nov 2017 - 
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.

Migraine prophylaxis by anodal transcranial direct current stimulation, a randomized, placebo-controlled trial.

Paradee Auvichayapat, +8 more
- 01 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: Anodal M1 tDCS may be a safe and useful clinical tool in migraine prophylaxis and the mechanism of action of anodal tDCS on neuromodulation in migraine patients needs further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy and interindividual variability in motor-cortex plasticity following anodal tDCS and paired-associative stimulation.

Wolfgang Strube, +3 more
- 17 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: The findings highlight the need to define sufficient physiological read-outs for a given plasticity protocol and to develop predictive markers for targeted stimulation after significant group-level efficacy following both stimulation protocols confirming older studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intra- and interindividual variability of motor responses to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation.

Martin Sommer, +3 more
- 01 Feb 2002 - 
TL;DR: Motor responses to rTMS show a high interindividual, but a low intraindividual variability, and whether repeated paired-pulses yield less variability than repeated single-pulse rT MS is investigated.

Transcutaneous spinal direct current stimulation modulates human corticospinal system excitability.

Tommaso Bocci, +6 more
- 01 Jul 2015 - 
TL;DR: The results show that tsDCS induces polarity-specific changes in corticospinal excitability that last for >30 min after tsDCS offset and selectively affect responses in lower limb muscles innervated by lumbar and sacral motor neurons.

“Unfocus” on foc.us : commercial tDCS headset impairs working memory

Laura Steenbergen, +5 more
- 01 Mar 2016 - 
TL;DR: For both online and off-line stimulation protocols, results showed that active stimulation with foc.us, compared to sham stimulation, significantly decreased accuracy performance in a well-established task tapping WM updating and monitoring.
