Data and code from: A meta-analysis suggests that TMS targeting the hippocampal network selectively improves episodic memory

Episodic memory is critically dependent on the hippocampal network and is frequently impaired in many clinical disorders. Recent findings highlight Hippocampal Indirectly Targeted Stimulation (HITS) as a promising, noninvasive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) procedure to enhance episodic memory performance. Here, we report the first comprehensive meta-analysis of HITS effects on episodic memory, encompassing both healthy individuals and clinical populations. HITS robustly improved episodic memory, with effects selective for episodic memory versus other non-memory cognitive domains. Efficacy was significantly greater when memory performance was assessed using memory tasks sensitive to recollection, which is strongly linked to hippocampal network function, compared to recognition or other types of episodic memory tasks. Efficacy was also significantly greater when HITS was delivered before the memory tasks were administered, versus in the period between the study and test phases o..., , # Data and code from: A meta-analysis suggests that TMS targeting the hippocampal network selectively improves episodic memory

## Description of the data and file structure

The analysis_dataset.csv file is a table of standardized effect sizes used in the meta-analysis, organized by reviewed study and categorized based on the experiment design factors that were assessed. The data are organized such that each row has one effect as well as all the study and factor categorizations for that effect, organized by columns. The first row is a header that indicates the study and factor information provided in each column.

The HeaderDataDictionary_v3.txt file is a description of how the data in analysis_dataset.csv correspond to the factor descriptions used in the meta-analysis reported in the corresponding publication, described in Tables 1 and 2 of the HeaderDataDictionary_v3.txt file (and in Table 1 and Table S1..., ,
