| Popis | Objective: Alzheimer's disease dementia (AD) and its preclinical stage, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), are critical issues confronting the aging society. Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques have the potential to be effective tools for enhancing cognitive functioning. The main objective of our meta -analysis was to quantify and update the status of the efficacy of repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) when applied in AD and MCI.Methods: The systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed and Web of Science according to PRISMA statement.Results: Pooled effect sizes (Hedges' g) from 32 studies were analyzed using random effect models. We found both, rTMS and tDCS to have significant immediate cognition-enhancing effect in AD with rTMS inducing also beneficial long-term effects. We found no evidence for synergistic effect of cognitive train-ing with NIBS.Conclusions: In AD a clinical recommendation can be made for NEURO-ADTM system and for high -frequency rTMS over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) as probably effective protocols (B -level of evidence) and for anodal tDCS over the left DLPFC as a possibly effective.Significance: According to scientific literature, NIBS may be an effective method for improving cognition in AD and possibly in MCI.(c) 2022 International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology.
