Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is known to have a modulatory effect on neural tissue and that it is polarity specific. It is also shown that tDCS demonstrated the lasting effect in therapeutic applications. The main aim of…
Whether transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) benefits stroke rehabilitation remains unclear. To investigate how tDCS reorganizes brain circuitry, nineteen post-stroke patients underwent rehabilitation sessions with bi-hemispheric…
The present literature about possible mechanisms behind the effectivity of noninvasive electromagnetic stimulation in major depressive disorder (MDD) is not very rich. Despite extensive research in applications for clinical practice, the…
Electro-stimulation or modulation of deep brain regions is commonly used in clinical procedures for the treatment of several nervous system disorders. In particular, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is widely used as an…
Negative emotional responses to the daily life stresses have cumulative effects which, in turn, impose wide-ranging negative constraints on emotional well being and neurocognitive performance (Kalueff:2007cp, Charles:2013eq, Nadler:2010hk).…
Predicting and understanding the changes in cognitive performance, especially after a longitudinal intervention, is a fundamental goal in neuroscience. Longitudinal brain stimulation-based interventions like transcranial direct current…
Executive functioning is a cognitive process that enables humans to plan, organize, and regulate their behavior in a goal-directed manner. Understanding and classifying the changes in executive functioning after longitudinal interventions…
Functional connectivity (FC) between brain regions tracks symptom severity in many neuropsychiatric disorders. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) directly alters regional activity and indirectly alters FC. Predicting how FC will change…
Objective: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique used to generate conduction currents in the head and disrupt brain functions. To rapidly evaluate the tDCS-induced current density in…
Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (TCES) and Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) are two different applications of electrical current to the brain used in different areas of medicine. Both have a similar frequency dependence of their efficiency,…
Our findings indicated that brain stimulation exerted no effect on the patients cognitive functions. The study outcome suggest that tDCS over primary motor cortex may be considered as a potential nonpharmochological treatment add-on in MG.…
Emerging evidence showed that major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with disruptions of brain structural and functional networks, rather than impairment of isolated brain region. Thus, connectome-based models capable of predicting…
For decades, focal non-invasive neuromodulation of deep brain regions has not been possible because of the steep depth-focality trade-off of conventional non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques, such as transcranial magnetic…
Background: The treatment of depressive episodes is well established, with clearly demonstrated effectiveness of antidepressants and psychotherapies. However, more than one-third of depressed patients do not respond to treatment.…
Background: Real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging neurofeedback (rtfMRI-nf) has proven to be a powerful technique to help subjects to gauge and enhance emotional control. Traditionally, rtfMRI-nf has focused on emotional…
Functional magnetic resonance imaging recordings in the resting-state (RS) from the human brain are characterized by spontaneous low-frequency fluctuations in the blood oxygenation level dependent signal that reveal functional connectivity…
On the increase of major depressive disorders (MDD), many researchers paid attention to their recognition and treatment. Existing MDD recognition algorithms always use a single time-frequency domain method method, but the single…
Acquisition of fine motor skills is a time-consuming process as it requires frequent repetitions. Transcranial electrical stimulation is a promising means of enhancing simple motor skill development via neuromodulatory mechanisms. Here, we…
Personalized treatments are gaining momentum across all fields of medicine. Precision medicine can be applied to neuromodulatory techniques, where focused brain stimulation treatments such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation…
Diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) primarily relies on the patient's self-reported symptoms and a clinical evaluation. Effective connectivity (EC) from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) analysis can…
