PHARMACOKINETICS OF RESVERATROL, ITS MONOCONJUGATES AND ITS TRIMETHOXY ANALOG TMS
… a potent RES analog, trimethoxy-trans-stilbene (TMS). Chapter 1 presents a detailed introduction, hypothesis and significance of my work. Chapter 2 includes the development and validation of a bioanalytical method for quantitation of RES and its metabolites on LC/MS/MS. We were able to develop …

TMS and fMRI studies investigating the neural mechanisms of tool perception
… location associated with a tool). Importantly, TMS over lLOTC led to a specific decrease in accuracy for action judgments but not for contextual judgments, supporting a causal role for lLOTC in processing tool actions. We investigated lLOTC-IPS connections by interleaving repetitive TMS with …

Revealing Connections in Object and Scene Processing Using Consecutive TMS and fMR-Adaptation
… repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and functional magnetic resonance-adaptation (fMR-A) were paired together. rTMS was applied to object-selective lateral occipital (LO) and scene-selective transverse occipital sulcus (TOS). Immediately after stimulation, participants underwent …

Comparison of muscle synergies elicited from transcranial meganetic stimulation (tms) and voluntary movements
… whether Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) can elicit muscle synergies matching ones observed in voluntary movements in healthy human subjects and whether these synergies can serve as frameworks to predict EMG patterns evoked by either TMS or voluntary movements. Five healthy …

Optimizing Treatment for Depression: Integrating TMS and Ketamine Through Provider and Clinical Staff Education
… use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and ketamine for treating treatment-resistant depression (TRD). TRD affects a significant number of individuals who have Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and often do not respond to traditional antidepressant therapies, thus leading to a need …

In-vitro experiments on neuronal cells and computer modeling over realistic head models in TMS
… neurological disorders. The major principle of TMS is the Faraday’s law stating that time varying magnetic field induces electric field in nearby conductors. More specifically, magnetic field generated by TMS stimulator induces electric current in the conductive brain tissue. Numerous studies …

An fMRI and TMS investigation of response, semantic, and task conflict in the Stroop task.
… Experiment 1 (n=20) used high frequency rTMS to stimulate the left DLPFC and observed the behavioural effect on each of the various forms of cognitive conflict. Our results showed a significant main effect of stimulation in reducing response times (RTs) compared to sham-stimulation, …

Eine TMS-Studie zur funktionellen Verbindung zwischen kortikalem motorischem Handareal und Sprachareal bei Schlaganfallpatienten mit Restaphasie
Previous studies showed that in healthy subjects the excitability of the hand area of the motor cortex is enhanced during reading aloud, but only on the language-dominant hemisphere. These results indicate that there is a functional connectivity between cortical areas for hand movement and language …

Testing the Efficacy of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in Treating Depression in Patients with Cognitive Impairment
… efficacy of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in treating depression among individuals with cognitive impairment and (2) to examine if TMS is capable of facilitating cognitive improvements independent of mood improvements. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is often seen as a pre-clinical …

The Functional Dissection of Motion Processing Pathways in the Human Visual Cortex Using fMRI-Guided TMS
… by using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to transiently disrupt cortical activations within these areas during psychophysical tasks of motion perception. The tasks were chosen to coincide with previous non-human primate and human neuroimaging literature; translational, radial and …

PTSD Symptom Severity and Neurocognitive Performance as a Function of Combined TMS and Imaginal Exposure in OIF/OEF Combat Veterans with Treatment Resistant PTSD
… combines transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and the supplementary motor area (SMA) with a standardized exposure protocol for the treatment of chronic, treatment-resistant PTSD. The aims are to (1) determine if the treatment is safe and …

Improving the reliability of transcranial magnetic stimulation targeting
… with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). TMS is applied to study brain dynamics, to map cortical functions, and to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders. In TMS, an electric field is induced in the brain. The location of the electric field maximum is targeted with a …

An Investigation of multisensory integration: Does peak occipital beta frequency directly influence the Flash Tap illusion?
… from the University of Essex underwent a TMS protocol in order to experimentally reduce their peak occipital beta frequency. Measurements for the temporal window were investigated Pre- and Post-TMS in order to ascertain whether changing the peak beta frequency also directly resulted in a …

Trace metals in upper Susquehanna River ecosystem: environmental distribution, urban impacts, and interaction with sediment materials
… and analyzed for the following Trace Metals (TMs), as appropriate: Pb, Cd, Co, Ni, Cr, Cu, Zn, and total and inorganic Hg. The median and range of TMs found in RW samples help establish baseline values for the Susquehanna River near Binghamton, N.Y. Average total TMs at normal flow ranged from …

The Influence of Task Process and Task Structure on Transactive Memory Systems and Team Outcomes: A Meta-Regression Analysis
… on the presence of Transactive Memory Systems (TMS), a shared cognitive mechanism that facilitates the distribution and retrieval of specialized knowledge within teams. However, gaps remain in understanding the dynamics of how TMS influences team outcomes, especially in the context of varying …

Development of New Regeneration Methods in Animal Models with Chronic Tympanic membrane Perforations Using Tissue Engineering Techniques
… Rat models for acute or chronic perforations in TMs were prepared. Chronic perforations were produced by a new method - ‘Choung’s COM model I’. The TMs were regularly obtained from rat models with acute or chronic perforations and immunostained with CK19, INGβ1, and DAPI. For the third purpose, …
