A novel pulse-current waveform circuit for low-energy consumption and low-noise transcranial magnetic stimulation by Xinhua Tan, Ao Guo, Jiasheng Tian, Yingwei Li, Yingwei Li, Jian Shi

“…It utilizes a pulsed magnetic field to induce electric pulses that act on the central nervous system, altering the membrane potential of nerve cells in the cerebral cortex to treat certain mental diseases. However, the effectiveness of TMS can be compromised by significant heat generation and the clicking noise produced by the pulse in the TMS coil. …”

NF-κB Signaling in the Brain of Autistic Subjects by Mazhar Malik, Zujaja Tauqeer, Ashfaq M. Sheikh, Guang Wen, Amenah Nagori, Kun Yang, W. Ted Brown, Xiaohong Li

“…In addition, our results demonstrated that the expression of NF-κB (p65), and the phosphorylation/activation of NF-κB (p65) at Ser536 are not significantly changed in the cerebellum and cortex of both autistic subjects and BTBR mice. Our findings suggest that the NF-κB signaling pathway is not disregulated in the brain of autistic subjects and thus may not be significantly involved in the processes of abnormal inflammatory responses suggested in autistic brain.…”

Deluisi, Michael Thase, Mario Cristancho, Julie Grier, Camille Blaine, Almaris Figueroa-González, Desmond J. Oathes

“…Background: Depression alleviation following treatment with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) tends to be more effective when TMS is targeted to cortical areas with high (negative) resting state functional connectivity (rsFC) with the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (sgACC). However, the relationship between sgACC-cortex rsFC and the TMS-evoked response in the sgACC is still being explored and has not yet been established in depressed patients. …”
