Neuronal dysfunction plays an important role in the high prevalence of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) in people with HIV (PWH). Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)-with its ...
Eleven PWH (47-69 years old, 2 females, 100% African Americans, disease duration 16-36 years) participated in the study, which had two phases, Phase 1 and Phase 2. During Phase 1, participants were ra...
Compared to sham tDCS, cingulate tDCS led to a decrease in Perseverative Errors in Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), but not Non-Perseverative Errors, as well as a decrease in the ratio score of Tra...
Cingulate tDCS is safe and well-tolerated in PWH, and may have the potential to improve cognitive performance and brain function. A future study with a larger sample is warranted....
Transcranial magnetic stimulation is a safe, effective, and well-tolerated intervention for depression; it is currently approved for treatment-resistant depression. This article summarizes the mechani...
Insula is considered an important region of the brain in the generation and maintenance of a wide range of psychiatric symptoms, possibly due to being key in fundamental functions such as interoceptio...
Emotion regulation (ER) refers to the process through which people influence the occurrence, experience, and expression of emotions. It can be established in an explicit (voluntary) or implicit (autom...
Advances in neurotechnologies are revolutionizing our understanding of complex neural circuits and enabling new treatments for disorders of the human brain. In the vestibular system, electromagnetic s...
In this narrative review, we describe evolving neuromodulatory techniques including magnetic vestibular stimulation (MVS), deep brain stimulation (DBS), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and tr...
MVS triggers both vestibular nystagmic (persistent) and perceptual (lasting ∼1 min) responses that may serve as a model to study central adaptational mechanisms and pathomechanisms of hemispatial negl...
Neuromodulation has a bright future as a potential treatment of vestibular dysfunction. MVS, DBS and TMS may provide new and sophisticated, customizable, and specific treatment options of vestibular s...
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique used in neurorehabilitation to enhance motor training. However, its benefits to motor training can be diffi...
Previous studies showed that the application of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) during stroke rehabilitation improve the depressi...
Articles published before July 2021 were searched in databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. STATA 12.0 software was utilized to make meta-analysis. We extracted or calculated mean valu...
The study showed increased immediate and long-term improvement in depression in rTMS group compared with sham rTMS group after treatment with random-effects models (immediate: SMD=4.92, 95% CI=2.69-7....
rTMS and tDCS were demonstrated to be effective and safe treatment techniques for PSD. More large-scale studies were essential to explore the effect of rTMS with different frequencies and tDCS on PSD....
Transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) is a promising adjunct to therapy for chronic aphasia....
This single-center, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled efficacy trial tested the hypothesis that anodal tDCS augments language therapy in subacute aphasia. Secondarily, we compared the effect o...
Baseline characteristics were similar between the tDCS (N=30) and sham (N=28) groups: patients were 65 years old, 53% male, and 2 months from stroke onset on average. In intent-to-treat analysis, the ...
tDCS did not improve recovery of picture naming but did improve recovery of discourse. Discourse skills are critical to participation. Future research should examine tDCS in a larger sample with riche...

To characterize motor excitability changes and changes of motor performance induced by a single anodal and cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) session in stroke patients....
Twenty subacute stroke patients participated. Motor performance was tested with the Box and Block Test [BBT]. Motor cortex excitability (short interval intracortical inhibition [SICI], intracortical f...
Anodal tDCS significantly reduced SICI without changing ICF or LICI. Cathodal tDCS did not change motor excitability. Both types of tDCS did not alter motor performance. Even prior to anodal tDCS, SIC...
Anodal, but not cathodal tDCS specifically modulated intracortical inhibitory circuits, leading to a disinhibition....
The results amplify our knowledge on excitability modulations of tDCS in stroke patients....
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique involving administration of well-tolerated electrical current to the brain through scalp electrodes. TDCS may...
