Brain stimulation and language training for children with language delay
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests if combining repetitive magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with language exercises can help children with global developmental delay who have trouble speaking. It's for children aged 2 to 5 with a confirmed language delay, and no other major conditions like epilepsy or autism.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- No history of epilepsy, seizures, or autism spectrum disorder.
- No metal implants in the head or electronic devices like a pacemaker or cochlear implant.

This study tests a form of brain stimulation (TMS) in people who had a stroke affecting the left side of the brain. It aims to understand whether stimulation can help with language processing tasks at least a month after stroke.
This trial tests a personalized, non-invasive brain stimulation method for children aged 5 to 18 with tic disorders who haven't been treated before. It aims to see if this new approach can help reduce tics safely.
This study uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to try to improve motor function in children and young adults with cerebral palsy. It also uses EEG to measure brain activity to understand how the brain changes.
