In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Depressed mood is the main symptom of depression, but other symptoms like cognitive impairment, anhedonia or sleep disorders may also contribute to patients suffering and are difficult to treat. rTMS is a relatively novel treatment option, whose therapeutic potential is still investigated and optimized. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of rTMS applied over two stimulation sites on cognitive impairment, anhedonia and sleep disorders in depression.
