Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Age \> 22 years
  • * Ability to determine the motor threshold of the participant. The participant's motor threshold could be established as the minimum stimulus required to induce contraction of the right thumb
  • * Subjects willing and able to abstain from partaking in any treatments other than the study procedure for the improvement of willpower and self-control and rI eduction of food cravings, including non-invasive brain stimulation treatments other than the study procedure during study participation
  • * Subjects willing and able to maintain their regular (pre-procedure) exercise regimen without affecting significant change in either direction during study participation
  • * Willingness to comply with study instructions and to return to the clinic for the required visits
  • * Women of child-bearing potential\* are required to use birth control measures during the whole duration of the study
  • * If applicable, subjects will be maintained on pre-study prescribed medications at a stable therapeutic dosage for at least 2 months prior to study entry
  • * Electronic implants (Implanted stimulator devices in or near the head - rTMS devices are contraindicated for use in patients who have active or inactive implants (including device leads), deep brain stimulators, cochlear implants, ocular implant, and vagus nerve stimulators, implanted devices such as cardiac pacemakers, defibrillators, neurostimulators. Contraindicated use could result in serious injury or death.
  • * Metallic, conductive, ferromagnetic or other magnetic sensitive implants/objects in the head or within 30 cm of the treatment coil (examples include implanted electrodes/stimulators, aneurysm clips or coils, stents, bullet fragments, jewelry and hair barrettes) with some exceptions in the mouth as standard amalgam dental fillings, single post dental implants, and dental bridge work. Failure to follow this restriction could result in serious injury or death.
  • * Drug pump(s)
  • * Application in the heart area
  • * Persons with a tendency to seizure (hypotonic, epileptic), or a personal history of epilepsy
  • * Ongoing anticoagulation therapy
  • * Ongoing severe or life-threatening condition
  • * Pulmonary insufficiency
  • * Heart disorders

  • * Personal history of syncope (except the reflex syncope)
  • * Vascular, traumatic, tumoral, infectious, or metabolic lesion of the brain, even without a history of seizure, and without anticonvulsant medication
  • * Withdrawal from one of the following drugs could form a relative hazard for the application of rTMS due to the resulting significant seizure threshold lowering potential: (e.g. alcohol, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, meprobamate, chloralhydrate etc.)
  • * Systemic infection
  • * Patients with a broad range of neuropsychiatric diseases are at elevated risk for seizures. Essentially all neurologic conditions with structural cerebral damage (e.g. stroke, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases, meningoencephalitis or intracerebral abscess, parenchymal or leptomeningeal cancers)
  • * History of hyponatremia, hypocalcemia, hypomagnesemia, hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, renal failure/uremia, liver failure
  • * History of tendency for raised blood concentrations of pro-convulsant medications due to reduced clearance
  • * Immunosuppressive therapy with cyclosporine, tacrolimus and other agents that can cause the posterior reversible leukoencephalopathy syndrome
  • * The use of methamphetamine, barbiturates, cocaine metabolites, opiates and phencyclidine 72 hours before the therapy
  • * Contradictions for the testing used in the trial, for example, the motor threshold cannot be found or quantified.
