Montage Matters: The Influence of Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation on Human Physiological Tremor
BACKGROUND Classically, studies adopting non-invasive transcranial electrical stimulation have placed greater importance on the position of the primary "stimulating" electrode than the secondary "reference" electrode. However, recent current density modeling suggests that ascribing a neutral role to the reference electrode may prove an inappropriate oversimplification. HYPOTHESIS We set out t...
متن کاملThe selective influence of rhythmic cortical versus cerebellar transcranial stimulation on human physiological tremor.
The influence of central neuronal oscillators on human physiological tremor is controversial. To address this, transcranial alternating current stimulation (TACS) was delivered at peak tremor frequency to 12 healthy volunteers in a 2 × 2 crossover study. Two sites were stimulated [contralateral primary motor cortex (M1), vs ipsilateral cerebellum] while participants performed two types of tasks...
متن کاملTranscranial alternating current stimulation (tACS)
Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) seems likely to open a new era of the field of noninvasive electrical stimulation of the human brain by directly interfering with cortical rhythms. It is expected to synchronize (by one single resonance frequency) or desynchronize (e.g., by the application of several frequencies) cortical oscillations. If applied long enough it may cause neuro...
متن کاملTremor Suppression by Rhythmic Transcranial Current Stimulation
Tremor can dominate Parkinson's disease and yet responds less well to dopaminergic medications than do other cardinal symptoms of this condition. Deep brain stimulation can provide striking tremor relief, but the introduction of stimulating electrodes deep in the substance of the brain carries significant risks, including those of hemorrhage. Here, we pioneer an alternative approach in which we...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF TRANSCRANIAL ALTERNATING CURRENT STIMULATION (TACS) ON ATTENTION IN STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL LEARNING DISORDER: SEMI-EXPERIMENTAL STUDY
Background & Aims: This main aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) on attention in students with specific learning disorder. Materials & Methods: Twenty students of elementary school with specific learning disorders were selected through purposive sampling method and randomly divided into two groups, the experimental and co...
