Stroke is the leading cause of severe chronic disability and the second cause of death worldwide with 15 million new cases and 50 million stroke survivors. The poststroke chronic disability may be ameliorated with early neuro rehabilitation where non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques can be used as an adjuvant treatment to hasten the effects. However, the heterogeneity in the lesione...

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques can significantly modulate cognitive functions in healthy subjects and patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. Recently, they have been applied in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and subjective cognitive impairment (SCI) to prevent or delay the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here we review this emerging empirical corpus ...

Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques (NIBS) have been widely used in both clinical and research contexts neuropsychiatry. They are safe well-tolerated, making NIBS an interesting option for application different settings. Transcranial magnetic (TMS) is one of these strategies. It uses electromagnetic pulses focal modulate ion neuronal activity cortical regions. When applied repeatedly (rep...

Abstract Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) interventions are promising for the treatment of psychiatry disorders. Notwithstanding, mechanisms action NIBS over dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), a hub that modulates affective and cognitive processes, have not been completely mapped. We aimed to investigate regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) changes DLPFC interconnected subgenual anteri...

Symposium title: Non-invasive brain stimulation in pediatric epilepsy: Diagnostic, biomarker, and therapeutic applications of TMS description: Many diagnostic approaches for epilepsy require invasive approaches. However, populations, non-invasive are preferred. Hence, centers have begun using the (NIBS) technique transcranial magnetic (TMS) functional, mapping eloquent cortex prior to surgery. ...

Over the last two decades, age-related anatomical and functional brain changes have been characterized by evidence acquired primarily by means of non-invasive functional neuroimaging. These functional changes are believed to favor positive reorganization driven by adaptations to system changes as compensation for cognitive decline. These functional modifications have been linked to residual bra...

Homeostatic plasticity complements synaptic by stabilising neural activity within a physiological range. In humans, homeostatic is investigated using two blocks of non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) with an interval without between blocks. The aim this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the effect induction protocols on motor evoked potentials (MEP) in healthy participant...

The primary aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of two specific Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) paradigms, the repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS), and transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), in the upper limb rehabilitation of patients with stroke. Short and long term outcomes (after 3 and 6 months, respectively) were evaluated. We meas...

Abstract Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS), such as transcranial electrical (tES), has been proposed a promising treatment strategy for neuropsychiatric pathologies in addition to conventional methods. To achieve larger outreach and ensure regular, high-frequency exposure, home-based, self-applied solutions have promoted new strategy. There are currently no available assess the correct plac...

Recent studies have used non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques, such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), to increase dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) activity and, consequently, working memory (WM) performance. However, such experiments have yielded mixed results, possibly due to small sample sizes and heter...
