11-205 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Many studies have shown that the effects of tDCS are optimal when combined with behavioral strategies, such as exercise, cognitive training, mindfulness techniques, and Virtual Reality training. |
T57 |
206-430 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In this sense, the remote visit concomitant with the tDCS use would allow both monitoring and the delivery of these other therapies (Wright and Caudill, 2020) through web-based management systems (Chiesa and Serretti, 2009). |
T58 |
431-662 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Can et al. (2019b) developed an automatic stress detection system that employs machine learning tools and concluded that physiological modalities are more accurate than self-reported perceived stress when analyzing real-world data. |
T59 |
663-959 |
Sentence |
denotes |
With the development of wearable devices and sensors, the assessment of physiological responses to the treatments could become routine (Can et al., 2019a), providing real-world data from patients in their own environment instead of measurements made in the artificial clinical laboratory setting. |
T60 |
960-1275 |
Sentence |
denotes |
It is worth mentioning that other more recent transcranial electrical stimulation techniques, such as alternating current (tACS), pulsed (tPCS), and random-noise (tRNS) use similar devices and therefore could be used at home, although, to the best of our knowledge, they have not been tested in this setting so far. |
T61 |
1276-1412 |
Sentence |
denotes |
One particular technique with the potential for home-based use that acts on the autonomic nervous system is the vagal nerve stimulation. |
T62 |
1413-1638 |
Sentence |
denotes |
This neuromodulation modality can be applied non-invasively either by transcutaneous stimulation of the cervical or auricular branches and can be particularly interesting when used in closed-loop systems (Gurel et al., 2020). |
T63 |
1639-1808 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Exploring the relationship between non-invasive neuromodulation and the immune system in the context of a viral pandemic, although highly speculative, is also promising. |
T64 |
1809-2132 |
Sentence |
denotes |
While viral infections often lead to an important dysregulation of immune responses (Qin et al., 2020), neuromodulatory strategies that can down-regulate the excessive inflammation and its detrimental effects (Silverman et al., 2005) could show beneficial effects in the adjuvant treatment and even prevention of infection. |
T65 |
2133-2367 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Finally, we believe that, in the context of COVID-19 social isolation, remote supervision could lead to benefits that are not directly related to the tDCS stimulation, providing support and eventual guidance for the isolated subjects. |
T66 |
2368-2561 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We understand that, if properly trained to do so, the research personnel, through the screen, could reinforce the importance of maintaining social isolation according to the health authorities. |
