background: it is estimated that major depression disorders constitute 8.2% of years lived with disability (ylds) globally. the repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rtms) and electroconvulsive therapy (ect) are two relative common interventions to treat major depressive disorders, especially for treatment resistant depression. in this study the cost- effectiveness and cost-utility of r...

in this study, the authors reported a case of woman with severe compulsion who became pregnant during the repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation. we carried out repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and behavior therapy simultaneously after repeated medications' refraction. the patient received 20 sessions 1 hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in right dorsolateral...

We carried out Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and behavior therapy simultaneously after repeated medications' refraction. The patient received 20 sessions 1 Hz Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in right dorsolateral pref...

background and aim: tinnitus is a distressing symptom for which few treatments exist. low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rtms) of the temporal cortex has been proposed as a treatment for chronic tinnitus. this study determined relationship between psychoacoustic parameters such as loudness and frequency of tinnitus and outcome with rtms treatment. methods: twenty six pa...

transcranial magnetic stimulation (tms) has been applied to a growing number of psychiatric disorders as a neurophysiological probe, a primary brain-mapping tool and a candidate treatment. although most investigations have focused on the treatment of major depression, increasing attention has been paid to anxiety disorders. the aim of this study is to long time (for 30 days) effect of repetitiv...

OBJECTIVE The interhemispheric competition model proposes that the functional recovery of motor deficits in patients after stroke can be achieved by increasing the excitability of the affected hemisphere or decreasing the excitability of the unaffected hemisphere. We investigated whether bilateral repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation might improve the paretic hand in patients after stro...

OBJECTIVE Prefrontal mechanisms are implicated in obsessive-compulsive disorder. The authors investigated whether prefrontal repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation influenced obsessive-compulsive disorder symptoms. METHOD Twelve patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder were given repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (80% motor threshold, 20 Hz/2 seconds per minute for 20 minu...

OBJECTIVE This study assessed the efficacy and tolerability of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for treatment of auditory hallucination of patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. DATA SOURCES Online literature retrieval was conducted using PubMed, ISI Web of Science, EMBASE, Medline and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases from January 1985 to May 2012....

objectives: stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability. hand motor impairment resulting from chronic stroke may have extensive physical, psychological, financial, and social implications despite available rehabilitative treatments. the best time to start treatment for stroke, is in sub-acute period. repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rtms) is a method of stimulating and augme...
