Low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation for visual spatial neglect: a pilot study.
OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on patients with visual spatial neglect and to explore the potential mechanisms of visual spatial neglect. METHODS A total of 14 patients with prior stroke and visual spatial neglect were divided into a control group and a treatment group. The treatment group was expo...
متن کاملRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in delirium: A double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled, pilot study
Purpose: Delirium is a fatal but potentially reversible disorder of Central Nervous System that adds a lot of costs on health systems. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of intermittent theta burst stimulation on severity and course of delirium. Methods: This was a double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled, pilot study. The participants were randomly allocated into two groups of ...
متن کاملRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation to hemispatial neglect in patients after stroke: an open-label pilot study.
OBJECTIVE To test whether multiple sessions of inhibitory low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) applied to the left parietal area can improve hemispatial neglect after stroke. DESIGN An open-label design. PATIENTS Seven consecutive patients with hemispatial neglect after right hemispheric stroke were compared with 7 retrospectively recruited control patients. M...
متن کاملLow-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for seizure suppression in patients with extratemporal lobe epilepsy—A pilot study
We evaluated the effect of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on seizure frequency in adult patients with medically intractable extratemporal lobe epilepsy (ETLE). Seven patients with medically intractable ETLE received low-frequency rTMS at 0.9 Hz, basically two sets of 15 min stimulation per day for five days in a week, with the stimulus intensity of 90% of rest...
متن کاملRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in anorexia nervosa: a pilot study.
The search for new treatments to improve outcome in people with anorexia nervosa continues. This pilot study investigated whether one session of high frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) delivered to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex reduces eating disorder related symptoms following exposure to visual and real food stimuli. Safety and tolerability were also asses...
