Improving visual functions in adult amblyopia with combined perceptual training and transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS)

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014
Amblyopia is a visual disorder due to an abnormal pattern of functional connectivity of the visual cortex and characterized by several visual deficits of spatial vision including impairments of visual acuity (VA) and of the contrast sensitivity function (CSF). Despite being a developmental disorder caused by reduced visual stimulation during early life

Differing effectiveness of transcranial random noise stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation for enhancing working memory in healthy individuals: a randomized controlled trial

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation
Background Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) applied to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is a promising technique for enhancing working memory (WM) performance in healthy and psychiatric populations.

Bilateral parietal tRNS improves processing speed on the paced auditory serial addition test (PASAT): behavioral and ERP evidence

Behavioral and Brain Functions
Objective Cognitive control is essential for goal-directed behavior and is often impaired in neurological conditions. Transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) has shown potential for cognitive enhancement, but its electrophysiological mechanisms ...

Occipital and parietal non-invasive brain stimulation enhances perceptual learning and transfer: evidence from high-frequency tRNS

Frontiers in Neuroscience
Perceptual training yields specific, long-lasting improvements, yet its transfer to untrained conditions is often limited. This tension has been proposed to involve interactions between early sensory plasticity and higher-order parietal processes, with ...

The Effect of Transcranial Random Noise Stimulation (tRNS) over Bilateral Parietal Cortex in Visual Cross-Modal Conflict

Background: Visual cross-modal conflict impairs performance in auditory working memory tasks, and the bilateral inferior parietal cortex (IPC) plays a pivotal role in inhibiting this conflict. However, fewer studies have investigated the role of bilateral IPC in visual cross-modal conflict with semantic and non-semantic distractors. Transcranial random

Improvement of uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and contrast sensitivity (UCCS) with perceptual learning and transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) in individuals with mild myopia

, 2014
Perceptual learning has been shown to produce an improvement of visual acuity (VA) and contrast sensitivity (CS) both in subjects with amblyopia and refractive defects such as myopia or presbyopia. Transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) has proven to be efficacious in accelerating neural plasticity and boosting perceptual learning in healthy ...
