Sponsor's own description

Medications have a poor effect on negative symptoms and cognitive function in schizophrenia. In the past, most of the studies on repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation intervention in patients with schizophrenia used conventional stimulation sites and patterns, and the intervention effect was still controversial. A few studies have achieved positive results with the new stimulation model (TBS model) and the therapeutic target (cerebellar vermis), but the follow-up period did not exceed 2 weeks, and no similar studies have emerged in China. Therefore, this study hypothesized that the TBS-mode rTMS intervention in the cerebellar vermis can improve the negative symptoms, cognitive function, and depressive symptoms of schizophrenia, and the efficacy can be maintained.
