introduction: electrical low-frequency stimulation (lfs) has antiepileptic effect, but the role of different stimulation parameters on this effect has not been determined. in this study the effect of different lfs parameters (intensity, pulse duration and train duration) on piriform-cortex kindled seizures was investigated. methods: seizure was produced in animals using kindling model of epilep...

background: centre of pressure displacement is an indicator of postural control. children with cerebral palsy have poor postural control. one common intervention to enhance their balance is vestibular stimulation. the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of vestibular stimulation on cop parameters in children with cerebral palsy (3-10 years old). methods: this study was a randomiz...

epilepsy is among the most common disorders of the central nervous system and there is not an absolute method for its treatment. it has been shown that each seizure has a depressing effect on the following seizure. thus, finding the mechanisms responsible in this phenomenon can improve our knowledge toward new ways for epilepsy treatment. in this study, the role of adenosine a1 receptors in pos...

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...

the use of deep brain stimulation in psychiatric disorders has received great interest owing to the small risk of the operation, the reversible nature of the technique, and the possibility of optimizing treatment postoperatively. currently deep brain stimulation in psychiatry is investigated for obsessive-compulsive disorder, gilles de la tourette’s syndrome and major depression. this presentat...
