Trial Outcomes & Findings for Modulating Human Cortical Plasticity With Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (NCT NCT03114488)

NCT ID: NCT03114488

Last Updated: 2020-02-10

Results Overview

The amplitude of the N100 component will be averaged across individuals in each group. Grand averages from the two groups will be compared. Outcome is reported as the change from baseline to post-treatment (approximately 1 hour).
