In this study, we first analyzed data from 147 patients with solitary plasmacytomas treated at the Mayo Clinic between 2005 and 2022 and then expanded our investigation through a systematic review and meta-analysis of 62 studies, encompassing 3,487 patients from the years 1960 to 2022. Our findings reveal that patients with up to 10% clonal plasma cells in their bone marrow (BM), denoted as plasmacytoma +, had a significantly reduced median disease-free survival (DFS) of 15.7 months vs.

Associative memory (AM) plays a crucial role in our ability to link disparate elements of our experiences, yet it is especially vulnerable to age-related decline and pathological conditions. Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS), particularly transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), has been investigated as a potential intervention to enhance cognitive functions, including AM. Previous tDCS studies yielded inconsistent results, often due to variations in stimulation sites and protocols.
