Efficacy and Safety of Task-activated rTMS in Improving Cognitive Function in Patients With Bipolar Disorder

A Randomized Controlled Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Task-activated rTMS in Improving Cognitive Function in Patients With Bipolar Disorder

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

1. To clarify the efficacy and safety of task-based repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on cognitive function in patients with stable bipolar disorder. 2. To analyze the therapeutic mechanism of transcranial magnetic stimulation based on magnetic resonance imaging and explore the abnormal regulation mechanism of cognitive neural circuits.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. Aged 14 to 45 years, right-handed; 2. Meet the diagnostic criteria for bipolar disorder in the stable remission period of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5); 3. Stable medication treatment; 4. Clinical remission for more than three months, Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) ≤ 6 points Hamilton Depression Rating Scale 17 (HDRS 17) score ≤ 7 points; 5. Cognitive impairment on the Cognitive Deficit Questionnaire (PDQ) ≥ 17 points; 6. Fully understand the transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment, be willing to actively cooperate with the treatment, and sign the willing to sign a consent form. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: 1. Those with a history of severe physical illness or diseases that may affect the central nervous system (such as tumors, syphilis, etc.); 2. Those with neurological diseases or risk of epileptic seizures, such as previous craniocerebral diseases, head trauma, alcoholism, abnormal EEG, MRI evidence of abnormal brain structure, or a family history of epilepsy; 3. Those with contraindications to MRI scanning or transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment, such as those with metal or electronic devices in the body (metal foreign bodies in the brain, cochlear implants, pacemakers and stents); 4. Those at high risk of suicide, or those who have already committed suicide or serious self-harm and need emergency intervention; 5. Those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the trial; 6. Those with color blindness or hearing impairment; 7. Those with a history of substance or alcohol abuse; 8. Other situations that the researcher determines are not suitable as research subjects. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

Treatments Being Tested

DEVICE

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation device

Activating neurons: rTMS can activate or inhibit neuronal activity in certain brain areas, changing the activity pattern of neural networks. Neuroplasticity: By changing the strength and connection mode of synapses, it promotes the plasticity of the nervous system, which helps treat neuropsychiatric diseases. Regulating neurotransmitters: rTMS can regulate the release of neurotransmitters, affect nerve conduction, and thus improve disease symptoms.
