Clinical Trial Summary

To investigate the treatment effect of Theta-burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TBS) on patients with freezing of gait (FOG) and the underlying neural mechanism.


Clinical Trial Description

This was a open-label clinical trial to assess the efficacy and underlying neural mechanism of TBS among patients with FOG. Forty patients with FOG were treated with TBS for 1 week. Before the TBS treatment, the Freezing of Gait Questionnaire, the Timed up and go test, the Standing Start 180° Turning Test, the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, and the Non-motor Symptom Scale, the Pittsburgh sleep quality index were obtained by a trained investigator to assess baseline severity. The patients had receiving a battery measure of neuropsychological tests(mini-mental state examination, Montreal cognitive assessment, digital span test, verbal fluency test, Hamilton depression/anxiety scale) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan in multimodalities, and electroencephalography (EEG) record. In the second day after the last treatment, all the tests, MRI and EEG were reassessed. Patients were instructed to focus their answers on the past 1 week. The clinical symptom and cognition of participants were followed in one month and two month after the last treatment. ;
