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%).

Noninvasive DC stimulation on neck changes MEP.
Chai-Young Lim,Hyung Ik Shin +1 more
TL;DR: It is found that noninvasive cervical application of DCS could increase the motor-evoked potential amplitudes which reflected corticospinal tract excitability, which remained for 2 h after stimulation had ceased.

Andre R. Brunoni,Renério Fráguas Júnior,Andrew H. Kemp,Andrew H. Kemp,Paulo A. Lotufo,Isabela M. Benseñor,Felipe Fregni,Felipe Fregni +7 more
TL;DR: Brunoni et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the pattern of improvement in symptoms of depression from the Montgomery-Asberg depression scale (MADRS) using data from a recent factorial, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial applying tDCS-alone and combined with sertraline to treat 120 depressed outpatients over 6 weeks.

Serotonin affects transcranial direct current-induced neuroplasticity in humans
TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of the serotonin reuptake blocker citalopram on plasticity induced by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in humans was explored in a single-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized crossover study.

Failure of cathodal direct current stimulation to improve fine motor control in musician's dystonia
Franziska Buttkus,Matthias Weidenmüller,Sabine Schneider,Hans-Christian Jabusch,Michael A. Nitsche,Walter Paulus,Eckart Altenmüller +6 more
TL;DR: No beneficial effect of ctDCS on fine motor control was found for the entire group, however, motor control of one guitarist improved after stimulation, and this patient suffered from arm dystonia, whereas the other guitarists suffered from hand dySTONia.
