Abstract:
This study investigated the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on sustained attention performance following a mindfulness intervention in seventeen patients with Graves' Disease. Significant improvements in the performance of the masked continuous performance test were observed among patients who received 2 weeks of active tDCS (10 sessions). These findings reaffirm that tDCS may enhance cognitive function.
