In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study is grounded in the regulatory mechanisms of the glymphatic system and applies repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The clinical efficacy and safety of rTMS will be systematically evaluated. Furthermore, transcranial magnetic stimulation-evoked potentials (TMS-EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) will be employed to investigate, from the perspectives of synaptic plasticity and neurovascular coupling, the mechanisms by which rTMS influences glymphatic function. Collectively, this work aims to provide new insights into both the therapeutic effectiveness and the underlying mechanisms of rTMS in AD.
