In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Major depressive disorder(MDD) is a complex and heterogeneous mental disorder. Repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), as a non-invasive neuroregulatory technique, has shown a promising function in the treatment of depression. Theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (TBS) model significantly shortened the duration of physical therapy treatment, and iTBS under the accelerated model (The latter is referred to as aiTBS)showed promising therapeutic effect. However, whether aiTBS has a better and faster curative effect in the first untreated or recurrent unmedicated MDD patients and the mechanism of its alleviation of depressive symptoms remains unclarified. This project intends to verify changes in CAMKII levels, CAMKII molecules and GABA receptors in brain-derived exosomes in normal controls and patients who received sham, aiTBS and high-frequency (10Hz) stimulation respect
