Research Abstract |
We have established a randomized controlled trial (RCT) protocol of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for the medication-resistant patients with major depression, controlled with a sophisticated sham rTMS system. The present RCT design could make it possible to compare different rTMS protocols directly during the acute phase and to examine a prophylactic effect of rTMS during the maintenance phase. As this RCT has not been completed so far, the final analyses, including neurobiological changes induced by consecutive rTMS sessions, are going to be done after the RCT completion.
