Sleep problems are common in bipolar disorder (BD) and may persist during the euthymic phase of disease. The aim study was to improve sleep quality BD patients through administration prefronto-cerebellar transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS).25 outpatients with a diagnosis Type I or II have been enrolled study. tDCS montage as follows: cathode on right cerebellar cortex anode over left dorsolateral prefrontal (DLPFC); intensity set at 2 mA delivered for 20 min/die 3 consecutive...
The aim of the study was to improve neuropsychological functioning euthymic patients with bipolar disorder (BD) using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) applied cerebellar and prefrontal cortices.Twenty-five BD outpatients underwent (anodal) (cathodal) tDCS for 3 consecutive weeks. All participants were assessed through Rey Complex Figure Test delay copy Neurological Examination Scale at baseline after therapy tDCS.After treatment, showed significant improvements in visuospatial...
The aim of the present study was to investigate P300 event-related potential components in euthymic bipolar disorder type I (BDI) and II (BDII) patients matched controls. A total 10 BDI patients, BDII healthy individuals were enrolled study. Event-related data collected according a standard auditory 'oddball' paradigm. significant groups effect both peak amplitude (P<0.001) mean observed; post-hoc comparisons showed that amplitudes significantly lower than neurophysiological patterns found...
Introduction: Neurocognitive impairments have been observed in patients with bipolar disorder (BD) even during the euthymic phase of disease, potentially representing trait-associated rather than state-associated characteristics disorder. In present study, we used transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) applied to cerebellar and prefrontal cortices improve neurophysiological performances BD. Methods: Twenty-five outpatients BD underwent open-label prefrontocerebellar tDCS for 3...
