Paired associative stimulation (PAS) is a widely used transcranial magnetic (TMS) paradigm to non-invasively induce synaptic plasticity in the human brain vivo. Altered PAS-induced has been demonstrated for several diseases. However, researchers are faced with high inter- and intra-subject variability of PAS response. Here, we pooled original data from nine studies three centers analyzed combined dataset 190 healthy subjects regard age dependency, role parameters effect different statistical...
The present study addresses the suitability of electrodermal lability as an indicator individual vulnerability to effects total sleep deprivation. During two complete circadian cycles, 48h deprivation on physiological measures (electrodermal activity and body temperature), subjective sleepiness (measured by visual analogue scale tiredness symptom scale) task performance (reaction time errors in a go/no go task) were investigated. Analyses variance with repeated revealed substantial decreases...
Abstract Theta oscillations support memory formation, but their exact contribution to the communication between prefrontal cortex (PFC) and hippocampus is unknown. We tested functional relevance of theta as a link both areas for formation using transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS). Healthy, young participants learned two lists Dutch-German word pairs retrieved them immediately with 30-min delay. In encoding group (N = 30), tACS was applied during list 1. List 2 used test...
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive brain technique that allows the modulation of excitability and plasticity human brain. Focalized tDCS setups use specific electrode arrangements to constrain flow circumscribed regions. However, effectiveness focalized can be compromised by positioning errors on scalp, resulting in significant reductions dose reaching target regions for tDCS. Electrode placement guided neuronavigation based individual's head anatomy derived from...
Growing evidence suggests a relationship between changes in sleep quality and cognitive decline aging. Specifically neurophysiological events associated with declarative memory consolidation, like slow oscillatory activity so-called spindles, are often altered older healthy adults, particularly Alzheimer's disease its precursor mild impairment (MCI). A possibility to enhance endogenous wave thereby improve consolidation is provided by transcranial oscillating stimulation (tSOS) during sleep,...
Introduction Many clinical studies reporting accelerometry data use sum score measures such as percentage of time spent in moderate to vigorous activity which do not provide insight into differences patterns over 24 hours, and thus adequately depict circadian patterns. Here, we present an improved functional analysis approach model rhythms from accelerometer data. As a case, demonstrated its application patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) age-matched healthy older volunteers (HOV)....
Zusammenfassung Nach zwei Jahren Projektlaufzeit lud der DFG-geförderte Projektverbund FDNext zu einem zweiten Community-Workshop ein. Unter dem Motto „Nachhaltiges Forschungsdatenmanagement gemeinsam umsetzen“ wurde eine projektweite Ergebnisbilanz gezogen und im Rahmen einer Online-Veranstaltung vorgestellt. Einzelne Formate ermöglichten den Austausch die Diskussion zur Vision des Kulturwandels eines ganzheitlichen FDMs durch Initiativen wie Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur (NFDI)...
Abstract Introduction Current analysis approaches of accelerometry data use sum score measures which do not provide insight in activity patterns over 24 hours, and thus adequately depict circadian patterns. Here, we used a functional approach to analyze accelerometer that models pattern rhythm. As test case, demonstrated its application patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) age-matched healthy older volunteers (HOV). Moreover, assessed the impact chronotype on distribution data....
