Comparing the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and electroconvulsive therapy in the treatment of depression : a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is the longest standing psychiatric treatment available and has unequivocal benefit in severe depression. However this treatment comes with a number of side effects such as memory impairment.

Noninvasive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in Chronic Refractory Pain: A Systematic Review
Efficacy and tolerance of pharmacological medications in chronic pain are limited. Therefore, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is regarded as a secure therapeutic option for pain relief, and it was proven to produce an analgesic effect.

NSSI is addictive in adolescents with depression disorders. It may be related to the decrease of serum beta‐endorphin concentration and the activation of brain reward system. ABSTRACT Background Nonsuicidal self‐injury (NSSI) in adolescents with depression disorders often exhibits addictive patterns, potentially linked to serum beta‐endorphin levels ...

Task-dependent Modulation of Cortical Excitability and Balance Control in Individuals with Post-concussion Syndrome [PDF]
In most cases, symptoms resolve between 7-10 days post-concussion. However, in 10-15% of the concussed population, symptoms can remain unresolved for months to years following the head injury.

We applied functional near‐infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to detect the brain function within the prefrontal cortex in the 23 typically developing (TD) preschool children and 48 children with high‐functioning autism (HFA), aiming to observe the differences in brain function within the prefrontal cortex between the two groups.

Excitability of the motor cortex in patients with migraine changes with the time elapsed from the last attack [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) produced by single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the motor cortex can be an objective measure of cortical excitability.

Parameterization of transcranial magnetic stimulation
A recent study (Di Lazzaro et al. J Neurophysiol 105: 2150–2156, 2011) describes the findings from a rigorous comparison on the effects of several popular variations of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) protocols. The results demonstrate that excitatory and inhibitory neural networks may be independently modulated based on TMS protocol selection.

Abstract Aspiration pneumonia (AP) is a major concern in aging populations. AP management requires a comprehensive, multimodal approach—notably including swallowing rehabilitation, oral care, and risk factor management. This scoping review evaluates evidence on swallowing rehabilitation for AP, which consists of compensatory strategies and exercise ...
