... of transcranial magnetic stimulation and cognition. Cognitive processing and central nervous function can be studied by event-related potentials (ERPs). One of the most used is the auditory P300, an ERP component with a major neural generator in the prefrontal cortex, which is linked to decision-making...

...Taylor Marzouk; Stephanie Winkelbeiner; Heela Azizi; Anil K. Malhotra; Philipp Homan Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been proposed as a potential treatment add-on for positive symptoms in schizophrenia. To summarize the current evidence for its efficacy, we reviewed clinical trials from...

.... Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the left and right hemispheres was performed at baseline and at the end of the intervention. We evaluated the intensity to induce a motor-evoked potential of 1 mV (S1mV), the resting motor threshold (RMT), the cortical silent period (CSP) at an intensity of 120 and 150...

..., we investigated the effects of a single dose of VE on cortical excitability as assessed with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Methods: Fifteen healthy volunteers participated in a double-blind, randomized, cross-over, placebo-controlled study. Subjects were required to take either 900 mg...

...Attila Makkos; Endre Pál; Zsuzsanna Aschermann; József Janszky; Éva Balázs; Katalin Takács; Kázmér Karádi; Sámuel Komoly; Norbert Kovács Background: A recent evidence-based guideline demonstrated that bilateral repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the motor cortex (M1) can...

... dopaminergic transmission. Though displaying different clinical phenotypes, a common pathophysiological pathway is discussed controversially. Several studies using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) revealed abnormalities in human motor cortex excitability in both schizophrenia and ADHD patients. Studies...

...Didier L. Schrijvers; Chris Baeken; Rudi De Raedt; Bernard G.C. Sabbe Objectives: Although high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (HF-rTMS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has been reported to improve mood symptoms in major depressive disorder (MDD...

...S. Pallanti; A. Di Rollo; S. Antonini; G. Cauli; E. Hollander; L. Quercioli Background: Clinical studies have shown that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is effective in a certain percentage of treatment-resistant depression (TRD). The left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC...

...Charlotte L. Allan; Lucie L. Herrmann; Klaus P. Ebmeier Background: Many trials of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) have used small samples and, therefore, lack power. Here we present an up-to-date meta-analysis of TMS in the treatment of depression. Methods: We searched Medline and Embase...

... with transcranial magnetic stimulation on a sample of violent offenders in order to measure cortical inhibition in the motor neuron system that is part of the frontal cortex. Methods: To investigate intracortical inhibition and intracortical facilitation, we conducted paired-pulse stimulation according...

...D. Rossini; A. Lucca; L. Magri; A. Malaguti; E. Smeraldi; C. Colombo; R. Zanardi Background: We have investigated the efficacy of high-frequency left (HFL) versus low-frequency right (LFR) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in depression, focusing on specific symptoms as possible...

...A. Conca; St. Koppi; P. König; E. Swoboda; N. Krecke Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a well-established diagnostic probe in neurological practice. The increasing knowledge of biological mechanisms in electroconvulsive therapy presents a clear case for studying the applicability of TMS...

...Shinsuke Kito; Kenichi Fujita; Yoshihiko Koga Several studies have proved that low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) showed an antidepressant effect, although its mechanism is still not completely elucidated. The aim of the present...

... investigates transcallosal inhibition in alexithymic and nonalexithymic psychiatric inpatients. Method: Transcallosal inhibition was elicited by means of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the primary motor cortex. Seven right-handed male and 12 female psychiatric patients with Toronto Alexithymia...

... of cortical motoneurons determined by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). We studied 12 male healthy volunteers (mean age 29.5 years, SD = 4.8) who were either treated with 6 tablets of acamprosate (each containing 333 mg verum) per day or placebo (randomized cross-over design) for 1 week. TMS...
