Thalamic neuromodulation for pediatric drug-resistant epilepsy: a case series evaluating deep brain stimulation and responsive neurostimulation.

Thalamic neuromodulation using DBS and RNS was safe and well tolerated in pediatric patients with DRE, including multifocal and generalized seizure onsets, with a trend toward greater benefit in the DBS group.

Implantable vagus nerve stimulation for the treatment of disorders of consciousness with epilepsy: a retrospective propensity score-matched clinical study

Implantable VNS was associated with higher 1-year clinically meaningful improvement and greater longitudinal CRS-R gains than conservative management in DoC patients with epilepsy and to explore factors related to response.

Efficacy of non-invasive brain stimulation for post-stroke depression: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Current randomized evidence suggests that rTMS and tDCS may improve depressive symptoms in patients with PSD and appear generally well tolerated, however, the certainty of these findings is limited by substantial heterogeneity, small sample sizes in several trials, and variation in stimulation protocols.

A comprehensive review of deep brain stimulation for drug-resistant epilepsy

DBS represents an important therapeutic option for DRE, expanding the scope of neuromodulation beyond traditional surgical approaches and further studies are required to refine patient selection, improve targeting strategies, and optimize stimulation paradigms.

Peripheral nerve stimulation for essential tremor: a GRADE-assessed systematic review and meta-analysis

Peripheral nerve stimulation was associated with short-term reduction in tremor severity and functional impairment in patients with ET, with an overall acceptable safety profile, suggesting that it may serve as a middle ground option between pharmacotherapy and invasive neurosurgical approaches.
