Identifying biomarkers for tDCS treatment response in Alzheimer's disease patients: a machine learning approach using resting-state EEG classification.

Background: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a promising treatment for Alzheimer's Disease (AD). However, identifying objective biomarkers that can predict brain stimulation efficacy, remains a challenge. The primary aim of this investigation is to delineate the cerebral regions implicated in AD, taking into account the existing lacuna in comprehension of these regions.

Impact of Pelvic Floor Muscle Training Isolated and Associated with Game Therapy on Mixed Urinary Incontinence: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

To verify whether pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) associated with game therapy (GT) can potentiate improvements in PFM pressure, urinary loss, and perception of improvement in women with mixed urinary incontinence (MUI). A randomized and blinded trial was conducted with 32 women aged between 45 to 70 years presenting diagnosis of MUI. They were randomly divided into two groups: PFMT group and PFMT+GT group.

Modulating Anxiety and Functional Capacity with Anodal tDCS Over the Left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex in Primary Dysmenorrhea.

Background: Primary dysmenorrhea is a common and often debilitating condition affecting 40-90% of menstruating women. This condition reduces functionality, quality of life, and social activities. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been used in many chronic pain syndromes, with evidence of improved pain, functionality, and mood in women with primary dysmenorrhea.

Low-level laser therapy improves pain in postcesarean section: a randomized clinical trial.

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on immediate postpartum pain relief during cesarean section. A randomized, parallel controlled trial was carried out. In total, 88 women with immediate postpartum were divided into 4 groups: control group (n = 22), placebo group (n = 22), experimental group I (n = 22, dose of 4 J/cm), and experimental group II (n = 22, dose of 2 J/cm).

Comparison of pelvic floor muscle training isolated and associated with weight loss: a randomized controlled trial.

Purpose: To analyze whether pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) associated with weight loss (WL) is better than isolated PFMT to provide additional beneficial effects to urinary symptoms in women with MUI.

Methods: A randomized, simple-blind parallel controlled trial was performed and included women with MUI aged between 40 and 65 years and body mass index between 25 and 40 kg/m. The sample was randomized into two groups: 11 PFMT + WL and 11 PFMT.

Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Treatment of Primary Dysmenorrhea: Preliminary Results of a Randomized Sham-Controlled Trial.

Objective: The aim of this trial was to investigate the effects of five consecutive sessions of anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the motor cortex (M1) on pain, mood, and physical performance in patients with primary dysmenorrhea (PDM).

Design: This is a double-blind randomized controlled trial.

Subjects: Twenty-two participants with PDM according to the No.
