Neuropsychiatric symptoms of Alzheimer’s dementia and their association with dorsolateral prefrontal cortex TMS evoked potentials Open
Background Alzheimer’s Dementia (AD) is characterized by cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS). Recently, cognitive decline in AD has been linked to increased cortical excitability. However, the relationship between NPS and cortica…
