SCS Stimulation Clamp to Assess Impact of Stimulation on Glucose Metabolism
In 1967 spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for the treatment of chronic neuropathic pain was established. Today various pain syndromes like the failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), the complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), ischemic pain or phantom limb pain are treated with SCS. The development of this technique based on the …

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
The objective of this proposal is to investigate the effect of non-invasive repetitive cerebellar transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on motor control in progressive supranuclear (PSP). The central hypothesis is that augmenting cerebellar inhibition via cerebellar rTMS will decrease postural instability in patients with PSP by increasing functional connectivity between the …

Testing the Noradrenergic Hypothesis of Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation
This study investigates the capacity of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation, applied at the ear, to alter to measures of locus coeruleus output pupil diameter and EEG alpha power. Non-invasive alteration in locus coeruleus output is of interest in regard to basic science and has potential clinical implications in a number …

SPRINT Peripheral Nerve Stimulation for the Treatment of Back Pain
The purpose of this study is to compare standard of care treatments for back pain to electrical stimulation. Electrical stimulation is delivering small amounts of electricity to the nerves in your low back. This study will use a device called the SPRINT Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) System. The SPRINT PNS …

Transcranial Static Magnetic Field Stimulation (tSMS) in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
This study aims to evaluate safety and efficacy of tSMS in ALS patients and to obtain preliminary data about the effects of tSMS on cortical excitability. To this purpose, 40 ALS patients will be recruited and randomized to real or sham tSMS. After 3 months follow-up, they will undergo tSMS, …
