Zapping the brain to fight depression and foggy thinking in seniors
NCT ID NCT05400512
Summary
This study tested whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (tDCS) could boost the benefits of computerized brain training for older adults with recurrent depression. Sixteen participants aged 60+ with depression and memory complaints completed a 4-week program of daily brain training, with half receiving real stimulation and half receiving a sham (fake) stimulation. Researchers measured changes in thinking skills and depression symptoms to see if the combination worked better than training alone.
