Clinical trial
tDCS With Cognitive Training to Reduce Impulsivity and Weight in Veterans With Obesity
Recruiting now · Not applicable · 1 countries · Registry ID NCT05225233
What this study is about
The purpose of this study is to investigate if transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can increase the effectiveness of cognitive training to reduce impulsivity in individuals with obesity, and to evaluate weight change with these individuals. The long-term goal of this research is to develop new treatment approaches for individuals with obesity.
Basic eligibility
Full registry criteria
Treatments and study arms
Sham Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
Cognitive training concurrent with sham tDCS (30 seconds ramp up/ramp down at the beginning of the session)
Active Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
Cognitive training concurrent with 2 mAmps of anodal stimulation applied to the left frontal cortex for 20 minutes.
Primary outcomes
Differences in the magnitude of change in NIH Flanker Reaction Time (RT) (ms) between active and sham groups from baseline to follow up sessions.
Differences in the magnitude of change in weights kilograms (kg) between active and sham tDCS (active from baseline to follow up sessions.
