Specific effects of EEG based neurofeedback training on memory functions in post-stroke victims
Abstract: Background: Using EEG based neurofeedback (NF), the activity of the brain is modulated directly and, therefore, the cortical substrates of cognitive functions themselves. In the present study, we investigated the ability of stroke patients to control their...
The mechanism of neurofeedback training for treatment of central neuropathic pain in paraplegia: a pilot study
Abstract Background: Central neuropathic pain has a prevalence of 40% in patients with spinal cord injury. Electroencephalography (EEG) studies showed that this type of pain has identifiable signatures, that could potentially be targeted by a neuromodulation therapy....
