Article Synopsis
- Current treatments for schizophrenia are inadequate, with no effective options for negative symptoms or cognitive issues, leading researchers to explore neuromodulation techniques like repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as a potential solution.
- A systematic review and meta-analysis of rTMS studies involving schizophrenia found that while certain adverse effects (like headache and dizziness) were more common with active rTMS, the overall safety profile indicated no increased risk of severe side effects compared to sham treatments.
- The study concludes that rTMS is safe and generally well-tolerated in people with schizophrenia, suggesting it does not pose a higher risk of adverse effects, including seizures, than seen in the general population.*
Background: Ethanol (EtOH) intake correlates with increased risk-taking, and sex differences exist in both EtOH use and risk-taking in humans and rats. However, the interaction of sex and gonadal hormones to affect risk-taking under the influence of EtOH has not been determined. This was the focus of the current study.
