Brain stimulation in migraine

2013
Migraine is a very prevalent disease with great individual disability and socioeconomic burden. Despite intensive research effort in recent years, the etiopathogenesis of the disease remains to be elucidated. Recently, much importance has been given to mechanisms underlying the cortical excitability that has been suggested to be dysfunctional in ...

Brain Stimulation

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1990
Electrical stimulation in the PAG has been shown to elicit profound analgesia in experimental animals that is at least in part due to the release of endogenous opioid substances. Electrical stimulation in the thalamic nuclei VPL and VPM inhibits the activation of spinal dorsal horn neurons by noxious stimuli.

Brain Stimulation Revisited

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1990
The results of the following selected studies using magnetic coil (MC) stimulation are presented: (1) evidence for focality of MC stimulation, (2) MC stimulation of frontal areas related to speech, (3) transcallosal responses evoked by MC stimulation, and (4) suppression of visual perception with MC stimulation over occipital cortex. The authors served

Brain stimulation in obesity

International Journal of Obesity, 2017
Obesity is taking up epidemic proportions worldwide with significant impacts on the health of both the affected individual and on society as a whole. Treatment approaches consist of behavioural and pharmacological approaches, however, these are often found to be ineffective. In severe obesity, bariatric surgery is frequently performed.

Brain stimulation for epilepsy [PDF]

open access: possibleNature Clinical Practice Neurology, 2005
It is estimated that epilepsy affects up to 1% of the world's population, and although many patients derive considerable benefits from antiepileptic drugs or resective surgery, new therapeutic approaches are still needed. In this Viewpoint, William Theodore assesses the potential of techniques that involve direct or indirect electrical stimulation of ...

Deep brain stimulation

Cell and Tissue Research, 2004
During the last decade deep brain stimulation (DBS) has become a routine method for the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), leading to striking improvements in motor function and quality of life of PD patients. It is associated with minimal morbidity.

Brain Stimulation and the NUMERICAL Brain

2023
Abstract Here we review the contribution of brain stimulation studies to the understanding of number and arithmetic processes. We show that these studies have significantly contributed to detail the architecture of numerical processing and its critical relation with brain regions such as the parietal and the frontal areas.

Neurophysiology of Deep Brain Stimulation

2012
We review the data concerning the neurophysiology of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in humans, especially in reference to Parkinson's disease. The electric field generated by DBS interacts with the brain in complex ways, and several variables could influence the DBS-induced biophysical and clinical effects.

Stimulants and the developing brain

Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2005
For almost 70 years, children have received stimulants for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder [ADHD (initially called hyperkinetic syndrome)], with little understanding of the long-term effects of these drugs on brain development.
