Safety of repeated sessions of transcranial direct current stimulation: A systematic review.

TLDR
Little evidence was found to suggest that repeated sessions of active tDCS pose increased risk to participants compared to sham tDCS within the limits of parameters used to date, however, increased risks associated with greater levels of exposure to tDCS, or rare and under-reported AEs cannot be ruled out.

Safety and Tolerability

TL;DR: The statement that tDCS is “safe” should be tempered down considering that its adverse effects are often underreported in most studies and the risk of induction of adverse effects in special populations has not been sufficiently investigated yet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pilot trial of home-administered transcranial direct current stimulation for the treatment of depression.

TL;DR: Initial evidence is provided that home-based, remotely-supervised tDCS treatment may be efficacious and feasible for depressed patients and has high translational potential.

Increased Excitability Induced in the Primary Motor Cortex by Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation

TL;DR: The present results suggest that these same tUS devices used for internal imaging in many health care settings may also offer a promising tool for noninvasively modulating activity in the central nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Working Memory Training in Healthy Young Adults.

TL;DR: Findings show the potential that tDCS may be leveraged as an intervention to facilitate WM training, for those in need of a higher WM ability.

Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses: the PRISMA statement

TL;DR: Moher et al. as mentioned in this paper introduce PRISMA, an update of the QUOROM guidelines for reporting systematic reviews and meta-analyses, which is used in this paper.

Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses: the PRISMA Statement.

TL;DR: The QUOROM Statement (QUality Of Reporting Of Meta-analyses) as mentioned in this paper was developed to address the suboptimal reporting of systematic reviews and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conducting Meta-Analyses in R with the metafor Package

TL;DR: The metafor package provides functions for conducting meta-analyses in R and includes functions for fitting the meta-analytic fixed- and random-effects models and allows for the inclusion of moderators variables (study-level covariates) in these models.
