The Effect of rTMS with Rehabilitation on Hand Function and Corticomotor Excitability in Sub-Acute Stroke
Objectives: Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability. Hand motor impairment resulting from chronic stroke may have extensive physical, psychological, financial, and social implications despite available rehabilitative treatments. The best time to start treatment for stroke, is in sub-acute period. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a method of stimulating and ...
متن کاملEffects of left prefrontal transcranial direct current stimulation on the acquisition of contextual and cued fear memory
Objective(s): Behavioral and neuroimaging studies have shown that transcranial direct current stimulation, as a non-invasive neuromodulatory technique, beyond regional effects can modify functionally interconnected remote cortical and subcortical areas. In this study, we hypothesized that the induced changes in cortical excitability following the application of cathodal or anodal tDCS over the ...

متن کاملGerstmann’s syndrome in a patient with left thalamic hemorrhage
A 78-year-old right-handed man presented with mild right hemiplegia and impaired deep sensation on his right side. He had no aphasia, but showed Gerstmann’s syndrome which is characterized by four primary symptoms: fi nger agnosia, right-left disorientation, agraphia, and acalculia. A cranial CT revealed hemorrhagic lesions in the left thalamus, and single photon emission CT showed decreased re...
متن کاملRight unilateral spatial neglect of the left brain-damaged patients.
Right unilateral spatial neglect (USN) was investigated on three left brain-damaged patients suffering from the right homonymous hemianopsia and hemiplegia. A test battery consisted of visuo-constructive praxis; 1) putting blocks into a box, 2) bisecting a horizontal line, 3) figure drawing, 4) drawing of a dial plate and 5) copying drawing. The investigation revealed that USN of left brain-dam...
