Improving visuo-motor learning with cerebellar theta burst stimulation: Behavioral and neurophysiological evidence

NeuroImage, 2020
The cerebellum is strongly implicated in learning new motor skills. Theta burst stimulation (TBS), a form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, can be used to influence cerebellar activity.

LTP-like cortical plasticity predicts conversion to dementia in patients with memory impairment

Brain Stimulation, 2020
Background: New diagnostic criteria consider Alzheimer’s disease (AD) as a clinico-biological entity identifiable in vivo on the presence of specific patterns of CSF biomarkers. Objective: Here we used transcranial magnetic stimulation to investigate the

Impact of multisession 40Hz tACS on hippocampal perfusion in patients with Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with alterations in cortical perfusion that correlate with cognitive impairment. Recently, neural activity in the gamma band has been identified as a driver of arteriolar vasomotion while, on the other ...

Predicting Individual Treatment Response to rTMS for Motor Recovery After Stroke: A Review and the CanStim Perspective

Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, 2022
BackgroundRehabilitation is critical for reducing stroke-related disability and improving quality-of-life post-stroke. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-invasive neuromodulation technique used as stand-alone or adjunct treatment ...

Non-invasive brain stimulation in rehabilitation

Turkish Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2022
Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) has been seen more common in rehabilitation settings. It can be used for the treatment of stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury and multiple sclerosis, as well as for some diagnostic neurophysiological measurements.

Gamma‐induction in frontotemporal dementia (GIFTeD) randomized placebo‐controlled trial: Rationale, noninvasive brain stimulation protocol, and study design

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions, 2021
Introduction Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a neurodegenerative disorder for which there is no effective pharmacological treatment. Recently, interneuron activity responsible for fast oscillatory brain activity has been found to be impaired in a mouse ...

Phase dependent modulation of tremor amplitude in essential tremor through thalamic stimulation [PDF]

, 2013
High frequency deep brain stimulation of the thalamus can help ameliorate severe essential tremor. Here we explore how the efficacy, efficiency and selectivity of thalamic deep brain stimulation might be improved in this condition.
