Efficacy and Brain Imaging Mechanism of Precise rTMS in Treating Adolescent Depression With Anhedonia
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Adolescent patients with depression with loss of pleasure were recruited for magnetic resonance imaging, and compared with healthy adolescents to explore the difference between brain imaging. A randomized controlled study was used to observe the efficacy and safety of accurate rTMS based on functional connection in the treatment of adolescent depression

Detailed Description
Adolescent depressive patients with loss of pleasure and healthy adolescents were recruited (nasty 30). Magnetic resonance imaging was performed on the subjects to find out the difference between the two brain images. With DLPFC-NAcc functional connection as the stimulation target, adolescent patients with depression (nude 90) were randomly divided into transcranial magnetic stimulation group (drug combined with TMS treatment group) and control group (drug combined with TMS pseudo stimulation group) for 15 days respectively. At the baseline, at the end of 7 days, at the end of 15 days, at the end of 15 days, 4 weeks and 8 weeks, the changes of subjects' pleasure were evaluated by Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS). Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD- 17) was used to evaluate the changes of depressive symptoms. Structural and functional MRI scans were performed on the experimental cases at baseline and after treatment, and the brain structure and function before and after treatment were evaluated.
