The goal of this study is to evaluate the change in pain scores among patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy after receiving treatment with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS).
This is a pilot study to examine the tolerability, safety and early efficacy of two forms of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for treating adolescents with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) who have experienced limited improvements with usual treatments for OCD in adolescents. The project's primary goal is to examine whether adolescents can complete 3 consecutive weeks of TMS administered 5 days per week, and to describe the type of and how common individual side effects with TMS occur in adolescents with OCD. Participants will: * visit the clinic every weekday for 3 weeks (15 days) to receive TMS treatments * have a brain MRI scan before TMS treatments begins and after finishing all TMS * complete questionnaires and report changes in behavior and physical symptoms
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with modified Constraint Induced Language Therapy (mCILT) is an effective treatment for aphasia when delivered in the subacute stage after stroke. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Can TMS combined with mCILT improve overall speech? 2. Can we identify specific behavioral and biological characteristics that would benefit most from the TMS and mCILT treatment? Researchers will compare real TMS to sham (fake) TMS to see whether TMS can treat subacute aphasia. Importantly, this trial will use electric field guided TMS to identify optimal and individualized stimulation intensity and site targeting. Participants will: * Complete a screening and medical intake to determine eligibility * Undergo MRI scans * Participate in 10 consecutive sessions (Monday-Friday) of TMS and mCILT treatment * Complete follow-up assessments immediately and 4 months after treatment
The purpose of the project is to assess the efficacy of parietal transcranial magnetic stimulation in misophonia. N=60 participants will undergo two transcranial magnetic stimulation sessions: one inhibitory and another excitatory. During both sessions, the parietal region will be stimulated. Participants will perform computerized tasks immediately before and after the stimulation, while EEG, heart rate, and skin temperature will be recorded. These recordings will be used to assess if TMS can be used to improve tolerance to misophonia triggers.
This is a randomized, sham controlled study of the Electroencephalogram (EEG) based Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (eTMS) treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The recruitment goal is 110 participants who are United States Military veterans or first responders (e.g., firefighters, police, paramedics, etc.). The Study includes an EEG recording in order to determine the optimal treatment parameters for the eTMS system, followed by 15 in-office visits that take place over 21-28 total days. Two eTMS treatment sessions are administered during each office visit.
The purpose of this study is to test if Variable Pulse TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) can result in objective improvements in patients with Post COVID Syndrome (PCS).
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with Speech-Language Therapy (SLT) is an effective treatment for mild aphasia in persons with chronic stroke. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Can TMS combined with SLT improve conversational speech and comprehension? 2. Can we identify specific behavioral and biological characteristics that would benefit most from the TMS and SLT treatment? Researchers will compare real TMS to sham (fake) TMS to see whether TMS can treat post-stroke mild aphasia. Participants will: * Complete a screening and medical intake to determine eligibility * Undergo a MRI * Participate in 10 consecutive sessions (Monday-Friday) of TMS and SLT treatment * Complete follow-up assessments 2 and 4 months after treatment
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how accelerated theta burst stimulation affects methamphetamine craving and brain activity. Theta burst stimulation is a unique transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paradigm that is efficient and potent.
The study will recruit 50 adults with stimulant use disorder currently in treatment and abstinent for at least 2 weeks. The study will also recruit up to 10 healthy controls (adults without StUD) for initial study configuration. The study will consist of five steps that are expected to be completed over two lab visits. Step 1: The 3T MRI scan will provide accurate prefrontal cortex anatomy for using neuronavigation for TMS. In addition, the study will use an analysis of resting fMRI connectivity to determine the location in the left DLPFC that has the maximum connectivity with the incentive-salience network. Step 2: The study will use the data collected at the MRI to select the individual TMS location. EEG will be used to collect TEPs in response to single pulse TMS at the left DLPFC. Participants will then be randomized to one of three conditions: A) TMS unsynchronized with EEG, B) TMS synchronized with EEG theta frequency trough, and C) TMS synchronized with EEG theta frequency peak. The stimulation will be applied with an intensity of up to 120% of the resting motor threshold (which is a safe and common practice; Rossi et al., 2021). The intensity can be decreased for individual participants. Step 3: Following randomization, the study will administer a pre-iTBS assessment. Step 4: The study will compare brain and behavioral responses before and after the iTBS session with TMS and EEG synchronization as assigned by their randomized group. Step 5: The study will administer a post-iTBS assessment.
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a complex chronic brain disease characterized by compulsive alcohol use, loss of control over drinking, and negative emotional states. Extensive research has identified the general neural circuitry underlying AUD. There is an exciting opportunity to intervene in AUD using neuromodulation. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) offers a non-invasive method to modulate brain activity, making it a promising tool for investigating, modulating, and potentially treating AUD. However, the precise effects of TMS on neural circuits involved in AUD and the mechanisms underlying these effects must first be understood. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is a neuroimaging method that provides direct measurement of brain activity within neural circuits with high temporal resolution. Critically, MEG can measure brain activity in a wide range of frequencies that are consistent with those targeted by TMS. The goal of this proposal is therefore to collect preliminary and feasibility data to support a future NIH grant application that would use MEG to investigate TMS effects in individuals with AUD (iAUD).
