Paired burst stimulation causes GABAA receptor-dependent spike firing facilitation in CA1 of rat hippocampal slices

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
The theta oscillation (4–8 Hz) is a pivotal form of oscillatory activity in the hippocampus that is intermittently concurrent with gamma (25–100 Hz) burst events.

Is theta burst stimulation applied to visual cortex able to modulate peripheral visual acuity? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation is usually applied to visual cortex to explore the effects on cortical excitability. Most researchers therefore concentrate on changes of phosphene threshold, rarely on consequences for visual performance ...

Early Intervention via Stimulation of the Medial Septal Nucleus Improves Cognition and Alters Markers of Epileptogenesis in Pilocarpine-Induced Epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Over one-third of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy are refractory to medication. In addition, anti-epileptic drugs often exacerbate cognitive comorbidities.

Inactivation of presenilins causes pre-synaptic impairment prior to post-synaptic dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Synaptic dysfunction is widely thought to be a pathogenic precursor to neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and the extent of synaptic loss provides the best correlate for the severity of dementia in AD patients.

Pain-motor integration in the primary motor cortex in Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In Parkinson's disease (PD), the influence of chronic pain on motor features has never been investigated. We have recently designed a technique that combines nociceptive system activation by laser stimuli and primary motor cortex (M1) activation through ...

Variation in left posterior parietal-motor cortex interhemispheric facilitation following right parietal continuous theta-burst stimulation in healthy adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© 2016 IBRO. Spatial neglect is modeled on an imbalance of interhemispheric inhibition (IHI); however evidence is emerging that it may not explain neglect in all cases. The aim of this study was to investigate the IHI imbalance model of visual neglect in

Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques for chronic pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Copyright © 2014 The Cochrane Collaboration.Various devices are available that can electrically stimulate the brain without the need for surgery or any invasive treatment in order to manage chronic pain.

Cerebellar Theta Burst Stimulation Impairs Working Memory

open access: yesThe Cerebellum
Abstract Introduction Working memory refers to the process of temporarily storing and manipulating information. The role of the cerebellum in working memory is thought to be achieved through its connections with the prefrontal cortex. Previous studies showed that theta burst stimulation (TBS), a form of repetitive transcranial magnetic ...

Theta-Burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Psychiatry, 2019
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a highly prevalent psychiatric disorder associated with disruption in social and occupational function. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) represents a novel approach to PTSD, and intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) is a new, more rapid administration protocol with data supporting efficacy in ...

Numerical modelling of plasticity induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We use neural field theory and spike-timing dependent plasticity to make a simple but biophysically reasonable model of long-term plasticity changes in the cortex due to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
