DOI: 10.1007/s00415-020-09852-x
Abstract: Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) has increasingly been used to stimulate the vestibular system in health and disease. While perceptible supra-threshold GVS destabilizes postural control in healthy control (HC) subjects, imperceptible ‘noisy’ GVS (nGVS) is reported… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00520-017-3881-7
Abstract: PurposeHematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is potentially curative for a number of hematologic malignancies, but is associated with high symptom burden. We conducted a randomized sham-controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate efficacy and safety of acupuncture… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bandc.2021.105809
Abstract: Action monitoring deficit is a core underlying characteristic and endophenotype of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) is heavily involved in error monitoring and cognitive control, and the hyperactivity in this region… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brs.2018.04.014
Abstract: BACKGROUND Theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (TBS) can quickly modulate brain activity and can be used to treat treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Whole-brain analytical research has revealed that left high-frequency PFC rTMS modulates brain activity in anterior… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brs.2020.06.007
Abstract: BACKGROUND Previous studies have found that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the left dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (LDLPFC) transiently reduces smoking craving, decreases cigarette consumption, and increases abstinence rates. OBJECTIVE We investigated whether 10… read more here.
