Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is known as the most effective technique in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, especially Parkinson disease (PD) and epilepsy. Relative healing and effective control of disease symptoms are the most significant reasons for the tangible tendency in use and development of this technology. Nevertheless, more cellular and molecular investigations are required ...

Abstract Direct cortical stimulation holds the potential to treat a range of neuropsychiatric disorders in which connectivity distributed networks functions abnormally. Mapping cortico-cortical evoked potentials (CCEPs) response direct electrical brain provides powerful insight into organization networks. Despite many advances quantifying with CCEPs, timing, direction, and magnitude responses a...

Abstract Stroke remains a leading cause of long-term disability in developed countries and the second death worldwide. Recent decades have witnessed substantial progress understanding pathophysiology ischemic stroke treatment stroke-related motor deficit. However, current therapies fail to offer patients satisfactory improvements. Therefore, more effective approach for treating deficit is still...

A fairly large number of studies to date have investigated the nature of learning and memory processes in brain-injured and healthy subjects with noninvasive brain stimulation (NBS) methods. NBS techniques, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), can alter brain activity in targeted cortical areas and distributed brain networks. The ef...

background & aim: dbs (deep brain stimulation) is a new and successful technique in treatment of symptoms of parkinsonism especially after drug resistance. research in this field is mostly designed for evolution of this technique. the present study aimed at evaluating the relationship between the angle formed in midsagittal and stn (sub-thalamic nucleus) axis line and recording length in the fi...

Deep-brain Magnetic Stimulation (DMS) is a noninvasive brain modulation method that improves hippocampal neural activity. The frequency of DMS has significant effect on the induced electric field. In this paper, we investigate relationship between stimulation and DMS-induced sensitivity distribution uniformity field are calculated to quantify relationship. results show frequency-dependent prope...

Background: The first three years of life have a pivotal role in growth and development of infants. Extra-uterine environment largely affects brain development of infants during the first year of life.However,no specific programs are available for brain development stimulation in foster homes. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of motor development stimulation package on anthropometr...
