The effects of deep TMS on purpose in life, quantitative EEG and event-related potentials in major depressive disorder.

Background: Perceived purpose in life (PIL) is linked with many vital health outcomes, including Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).

Methods: In this study, biomarkers associated with depression and PIL were investigated using Brain Network Activation (BNA) based quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) and event-related potential (ERP) measures in a sample of individuals with MDD. Data were analyzed before and after a 36-session, Deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) program.

The effects of deep transcranial magnetic stimulation on Alzheimer's disease: a case report examining cognitive functioning, memory, and QEEG.

Numerous treatment options are being studied for Alzheimer's disease (AD) given the rising prevalence of this condition worldwide. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a promising option for regulating specific neurological abnormalities pertaining to this condition. This case presents a patient with AD and co-occurring major depressive disorder that received 36 sessions of Deep TMS to the frontal and temporal lobes.
