Abstract:
Cognition is the most basic human mental process,and is a higher neural function of the brain.Cognitive dysfunction caused by various neuropsychiatric diseases may involve one or more cognitive domains such as working memory,attention and executive function,which can seriously affect the quality of patients'survival.Transcranial alternating current stimulation(tACS)can directly modulate cortical oscillations as well as intrinsic oscillatory activity,thereby affecting sensory,perceptual and cognitive processes.This paper analyses and summarizes domestic and international studies on tACS applied to cognitive disorders based on evidence-based medicine methods,to provide the theoretical basis for future scientific application of tACS in cognitive disorders.
