Transforming Brain Health With Neurotechnology Convergence (Part II): Intelligent Neurointervention Systems for Neurological Disorders

Brain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurological disorders represent a critical domain within global health, necessitating advanced interventions to address complex pathologies such as tumors, functional disorders, and cerebrovascular diseases. Despite the proven benefits of early intervention, current treatment paradigms face significant challenges: (1) limited precision in ...

Vicarious Touch: A Potential Substitute for Social Touch During Touch Deprivation

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Restricted interpersonal touch experiences, for instance due to COVID‐19 social distancing measures, result in detrimental effects on anxiety, loneliness and psychological well‐being. Yet, interventions capable of mitigating the impact of social touch deprivation, as experienced during the COVID‐19 pandemic, remain insufficient. In this study,

Synchrotron‐generated microbeams as a radiosurgical alternative for drug‐resistant epilepsies: Proof of concept in a mouse model of mesiotemporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective One‐third of patients with epilepsy, particularly those with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), remain resistant to medication. Resective surgery, the gold standard, is highly invasive and carries significant risks. Here, using a mouse model, we explored the potential of microbeam radiation therapy (MRT), a new technique based on ...

Analgesic Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation at Different Stimulus Parameters for Neuropathic Pain: A Randomized Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives The aim of the present study was to investigate the analgesic effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over the primary motor cortex (M1‐rTMS) using different stimulation parameters to explore the optimal stimulus condition for treating neuropathic pain.

Creativity and its link to epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

A Randomized, Sham‐Controlled Trial of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Targeting M1 and S2 in Central Poststroke Pain: A Pilot Trial

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Central poststroke pain (CPSP), a neuropathic pain condition, is difficult to treat. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeted to the primary motor cortex (M1) can alleviate the condition, but not all patients respond. We aimed to assess a promising alternative rTMS target, the secondary somatosensory cortex (S2),

The somatosensory side of the affordance: How seeing an object influences touch

NeuroImage
Object perception is inherently multisensory, as the brain integrates information across sensory modalities to facilitate the interaction with them. This intrinsic ‘action potential’ of objects is described by the concept of affordance, which refers to ...

High frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex modulates sensorimotor cortex function in the transition to sustained muscle pain [PDF]

, 2019
Based on reciprocal connections between the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and basal-ganglia regions associated with sensorimotor cortical excitability, it was hypothesized that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the left ...

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.
