Mechanistic Validation of Human Multipolar TES-TI: Amplitude Modulation, Frequency, and Benchmarking (MINT)

2026年10月22日 更新者：University of Wisconsin, Madison

This study is to find out whether and how a type of non-invasive electrical brain stimulation called transcranial electrical stimulation with temporal interference (TES-TI) can temporarily change brain activity in healthy adults. A structural MRI scan will be used to customize where the stimulation electrodes are placed for each participant to deliver TES-TI during three afternoon sessions at rest with eyes closed. Brain activity is recorded with high-density EEG. Up to 24 participants will be enrolled and on study for 3 to 12 weeks.

详细说明

This is an experimental study using a within-subject, single-blind, randomized, counterbalanced crossover design in which each participant serves as their own control. Healthy adults will complete (or provide an existing) structural MRI scan (T1/T2) to support individualized electric-field modeling and personalized montage optimization for thalamic targeting, followed by three afternoon stimulation sessions with simultaneous high-density EEG during eyes-closed wakefulness; sessions will be scheduled on separate days at least one week apart. Each session includes four stimulation conditions administered in randomized/counterbalanced order, with each condition consisting of a fixed 3-minute pre-stimulation baseline, 3-minute stimulation period, and 3-minute post-stimulation recording to enable STIM-PRE and POST-PRE comparisons.

  • Session A tests amplitude-modulation specificity (in-phase mTI, a mixed unipolar+HF condition with the same montage/current, a carrier-only HF control, and sham)
  • Session B benchmarks in-phase mTI against unipolar TES-TI at 5 mA and 8 mA (plus sham); and
  • Session C characterizes frequency dependence of in-phase mTI (10, 50, 130 Hz; plus sham).

Primary Objectives:

  1. Determine whether active multipolar TES-TI (mTI) produces envelope-driven EEG effects (primary contrast: STIM-PRE) by comparing in-phase mTI to SHAM, to a carrier-only no-envelope high-frequency (HF) control, and to a mixed unipolar+HF condition (same montage/current; one pair as unipolar TES-TI producing an AM envelope, the other pair as a non-interacting HF carrier with no envelope contribution).

  2. Benchmark mTI against unipolar TES-TI across stimulation intensity by comparing in-phase mTI to unipolar TES-TI at 5 mA and 8 mA, each evaluated relative to SHAM (primary contrast: STIM-PRE), and estimating effect sizes to inform future study design.

  3. Characterize envelope-frequency dependence of in-phase mTI effects by comparing EEG spectral power changes across 10, 50, and 130 Hz conditions (each relative to SHAM; primary contrast: STIM-PRE).

    Secondary Objectives:

  4. Assess persistence of stimulation-related EEG changes by quantifying post-stimulation effects (POST-PRE) across conditions (in-phase, mixed unipolar+HF, HF, unipolar) and sessions

IPD 计划说明

In accordance with UW-Madison data-sharing expectations, the study team intends to support sharing of de-identified scientific data collected during this project to the extent feasible. Sharing, if performed, will occur after the primary outcome results are published and may take the form of deposit in a controlled-access scientific repository, release on an open-access scientific data platform (e.g., OpenNeuro or similar), or response to requests from qualified researchers. The choice of sharing mechanism, repository, and timing will be determined by the study team consistent with funder requirements, UW-Madison policy, and participant consent, and it is possible that no sharing will occur if none of these options is consistent with those requirements.
