Simultaneous tDCS‐rTMS stimulation to regulate the language network and improve language ability in Landau–Kleffner syndrome

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Landau–Kleffner syndrome (LKS) is a rare epileptic syndrome causing language regression. In this preliminary study, we investigated the effects of simultaneous transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on LKS patients and the underlying mechanism based on magnetoencephalography (MEG) network ...

Taking Sides: An Integrative Review of the Impact of Laterality and Polarity on Efficacy of Therapeutic Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Anomia in Chronic Poststroke Aphasia

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2016
Anomia is a frequent and persistent symptom of poststroke aphasia, resulting from damage to areas of the brain involved in language production. Cortical neuroplasticity plays a significant role in language recovery following stroke and can be facilitated

The role of neuropsychology in stereo‐EEG: A narrative review

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Stereo‐EEG is accompanied by unique neuropsychological challenges in the workup, during the admission, and following the procedure. While established principles from epilepsy surgery programs provide a guiding framework for clinical practice, specialized guidelines to inform the role of neuropsychology in stereo‐EEG warrant further ...
