Cortical stimulation in pharmacoresistant focal epilepsies

open access: yesBioelectronic Medicine, 2020
Pharmacoresistance and adverse drug events designate a considerable group of patients with focal epilepsies that require alternative treatments such as neurosurgical intervention and neurostimulation. Electrical or magnetic stimulations of cortical brain

Direct Measurement of the Electric Field Induced by a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulator

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2023
This work proposes a simple method to carry out in the laboratory a direct measurement of the primary solenoidal electric field that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) coils generate in the brain. This method avoids indirect estimation of this electric field from measurements of magnetic fields and, at the same time, overcomes the difficulty posed

Enhancing osteoblast survival through pulsed electrical stimulation and implications for osseointegration

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Electrical stimulation has been suggested as a means for promoting the direct structural and functional bonding of bone tissue to an artificial implant, known as osseointegration.

Electrical Stimulation of Acute Fractures: A Narrative Review of Stimulation Protocols and Device Specifications

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Orthopedic fractures have a significant impact on patients in the form of economic loss and functional impairment. Beyond the standard methods of reduction and fixation, one adjunct that has been explored since the late 1970s is electrical stimulation ...

Direct Stimulation of Human Hippocampus During Verbal Associative Encoding Enhances Subsequent Memory Recollection

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
Previous studies have reported conflicting results regarding the effect of direct electrical stimulation of the human hippocampus on memory performance. A major function of the hippocampus is to form associations between individual elements of experience.

A simple electrical stimulation cell culture system on the myelination of dorsal root ganglia and Schwann cells

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2019
A large number of animal experiments and clinical trials have confirmed that electrical stimulation can accelerate the growth of axons and recovery of motor function, all of which are inseparable from the formation of myelin.

Effects of Ocular Direct Current Stimulation on Full Field Electroretinogram

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Studies on weak current stimulation (1–2 mA) examine effects on neuronal cells for the treatment of neurological diseases, like depression. Ocular current stimulation showed positive effects on retinal nerve cells which indicate that neurodegenerative ...
