iintroduction: repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rtms) modulates the excitability of cortical neural networks. the effect of rtms on excitability of cortical networks depends on its frequency. according to the previous reports, a distinction is made between low (<1hz) and high frequencies of rtms. low frequencies of rtms inhibit seizure but high frequencies increase it. in the curre...

Introduction: Cortical Spreading Depression (CSD) is a propagating wave of neural and glial cell depolarization with important role in several clinical disorders. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a potential tool with preventive treatment effects in psychiatric and neuronal disorders. In this paper, we study the effects of rTMS on CSD by using behavioral and histological a...

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...

Background: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a stimulation therapy approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2008 for the treatment of depression. However, its use remains obscure. Objective: To determine whether rTMS should be brought out of obscurity for the treatment of depression, schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Design: A meta-analysis of ...

Abstract Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a clinically effective treatment in major depressive disorder (MDD) when targeting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). Yet, at least 44% of patients do not achieve remission, requiring validated alternatives, such as orbitofrontal (OFC) targeted rTMS. Preliminary results employing 1Hz OFC-rTMS show 30% achieving response (i...
