tDCS Combined With rTMS for Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia

"Active tDCS positive stimulation: left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) or BeamF3 method; negative stimulation: right frontal, 2mA, 20 mins stimulation, 1 time/day, 5 consecutive days, weekend suspension, lasting 4 weeks, total 20 times.~Sham stimulation rTMS: Parameters such as stimulation site, current intensity, and stimulation time are kept consistent, keeping the coil facing outward."

"Sham stimulation tDCS: Parameters such as stimulation site, current intensity, and stimulation time are kept consistent, keeping the switch off.~Active rTMS: stimulation site: left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC); consisting of a total of 3000 pulses per session at 10Hz (4 seconds on and 16 seconds off) at 110% resting motion threshold (RMT), 40 pulses per string; total 75 strings; 1 time/day, 5 consecutive days, weekend suspension, total 20 times. Resting motor thresholds (RMT) were measured before the start of each day of treatment."
