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%).

The effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on seizure frequency of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis

TL;DR: Cathodal tDCS may be used as an additional treatment option in MTLE-HS patients waiting for or rejecting epilepsy surgery or even with ineffective surgery results, and no adverse effect has been reported except tingling sensation during cathodal stimulation.

Combining transcranial direct current stimulation and tailor-made notched music training to decrease tinnitus-related distress--a pilot study.

TL;DR: For the first time, tailor-made notched music training (TMNMT) with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is combined in an effort to modulate TMNMT efficacy in the treatment of 32 patients with tonal tinnitus and without severe hearing loss.

1 Hz rTMS preconditioned by tDCS over the primary motor cortex in Parkinson’s disease: effects on bradykinesia of arm and hand

TL;DR: In Parkinson’s disease the beneficial effects of 1 Hz rTMS over the primary motor cortex on bradykinesia of simple finger, hand and pointing movements is reduced by preconditioning with cathodal tDCS, but not with anodAL tDCS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparing immediate transient tinnitus suppression using tACS and tDCS : a placebo-controlled study

TL;DR: Insight is provided into the role of DLPFC in tinnitus modulation as well as the intersection between tinnitis and affective/attentional processing and whether repeated sessions can possibly be used as a treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anodal tDCS increases corticospinal output and projection strength in multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: It is shown that atDCS over M1 has the ability to increase CS output and projection strength in MS-patients, suggesting that atDCS can be considered during neural rehabilitation to facilitate motor recovery in MS.
