Sensorimotor Robotic Measures of tDCS- and HD-tDCS-Enhanced Motor Learning in Children.

Neural plasticity
Transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) enhances motor learning in adults. We have demonstrated that anodal tDCS and high-definition (HD) tDCS of the motor cortex can enhance motor skill acquisition in children, but behavioral mechanisms remai...

The Combined Use of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Robotic Therapy for the Upper Limb.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Neurologic disorders such as stroke and cerebral palsy are leading causes of long-term disability and can lead to severe incapacity and restriction of daily activities due to lower and upper limb impairments. Intensive physical and occupational thera...

tDCS and Robotics on Upper Limb Stroke Rehabilitation: Effect Modification by Stroke Duration and Type of Stroke.

BioMed research international
Objective. The aim of this exploratory pilot study is to test the effects of bilateral tDCS combined with upper extremity robot-assisted therapy (RAT) on stroke survivors. Methods. We enrolled 23 subjects who were allocated to 2 groups: RAT + real tD...

Multimodal personalization of transcranial direct current stimulation for modulation of sensorimotor integration.

NeuroImage
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) for the modulation of smooth pursuit eye movements provides an ideal model for investigating sensorimotor integration. Within neural networks subserving smooth pursuit, visual area V5 is a core hub where...

Distinct processing stages of cross-modal conflict in schizophrenia: The role of auditory cortex underactivation.

Schizophrenia research
BACKGROUND: The cross-modal conflict deficit is a key feature of schizophrenia. However, it remains largely unknown whether cross-modal conflict in schizophrenia diverges at distinct processing stages and its potential association with the auditory c...

Cathodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Does Not Change Implicit Associations Against Alcohol in Alcohol Use Disorder: A Preregistered Clinical Trial.

Addiction biology
Addictive behaviour is shaped by the dynamic interaction of implicit, bottom-up and explicit, top-down cognitive processes. In alcohol use disorder (AUD), implicit alcohol-related associations have been shown to predict increased subsequent alcohol c...

Modulating hierarchical learning by high-definition transcranial alternating current stimulation at theta frequency.

Cerebral cortex (New York, N.Y. : 1991)
Considerable evidence highlights the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) as a key region for hierarchical (i.e. multilevel) learning. In a previous electroencephalography (EEG) study, we found that the low-level prediction errors were encoded by f...

May Dual Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Enhance the Efficacy of Robot-Assisted Therapy for Promoting Upper Limb Recovery in Chronic Stroke?

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether dual transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may enhance the efficacy of exoskeleton robotic training on upper limb motor functions in patients with chronic stroke.

Combined transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and robot-assisted arm training in patients with stroke: a systematic review.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Upper limb motor deficits in patients with severe stroke often remain unresolved over time. Combining transcranial Direct Current Stimulation with robotic therapy is an innovative neurorehabilitation approach that holds promise to improve...

Robotic treatment of the upper limb in chronic stroke and cerebral neuroplasticity: a systematic review.

Journal of biological regulators and homeostatic agents
Stroke is the second cause of mortality and the third cause of long-term disability worldwide. Deficits in upper limb (UL) capacity persist at 6 months post-stroke in 30-66% of hemiplegic stroke patients with major limitations in activity of daily li...
