Enhancing Brain Connectivity in Schizophrenia Through Neuromodulation (Study 1)
Sponsor
The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston
Enrollment
120 participants
Start Date
May 21, 2024
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SSD) will be exposed to active repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) from H coil for improving white matter integrity.
Eligibility
Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 60 Years
Plain Language Summary
Simplified for easier understanding
This study uses a brain stimulation technique called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) to try to improve brain connectivity and symptoms in people with schizophrenia. TMS delivers gentle magnetic pulses to the scalp to activate specific brain regions without surgery.
**You may be eligible if...**
- You are between 18 and 60 years old
- You have been diagnosed with schizophrenia or a related condition
- You are able to give informed consent
**You may NOT be eligible if...**
- You have a history of seizures
- You have an unstable or acute medical condition affecting the brain (such as a recent stroke, brain tumor, or serious head injury)
- You are taking more than 400 mg of clozapine per day
- You have a device in your body (such as a pacemaker or metal implant in the head) that is not compatible with TMS
