Pulsed transcranial electric brain stimulation enhances speech comprehension [PDF]
One key mechanism thought to underlie speech processing is the alignment of cortical brain rhythms to the acoustic input, a mechanism termed entrainment. Recent work showed that transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) in speech relevant frequencies or adapted to the speech envelope can in fact enhance speech processing. However, it is unclear whether

Neuroplastic effects of transcranial near-infrared stimulation (tNIRS) on the motor cortex
Near-infrared light stimulation of the brain has been claimed to improve deficits caused by traumatic brain injury and stroke. Here, we exploit the effect of transcranial near-infrared stimulation (tNIRS) as a tool to modulate cortical excitability in ...

Diagnosis of Nonorganic Monoplegia With Single-Pulse Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation [PDF]
Sir: Single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (spTMS) is used in clinical practice to evaluate the integrity of the corticospinal tracts.1 Here, we describe how spTMS assisted in proving that a patient with plegia of an upper limb and ipsilateral ptosis was malingering.

Afferent input caused by electrical stimulation of a peripheral nerve increases corticospinal excitability during voluntary contractions, indicating that proprioceptive sensory input arriving at the cortex plays a fundamental role in modulating ...

Caffeine and cortical excitability, as measured with paired‐pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation
AbstractIntroduction/AimsThe transcranial magnetic stimulation tests of short‐interval intracortical inhibition (SICI) by both conventional amplitude measurements (A‐SICI) and threshold‐tracking (T‐SICI) are important methods to investigate intracortical inhibitory circuits, and T‐SICI has been proposed to aid the diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral ...

Clinical Application of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Stroke Rehabilitation
As a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS)can change the membrane potential of neurocytes and generate induced current through time-varying pulse magnetic field acting on central nervous system, which can also ...
