Does intermittent theta burst stimulation improve working memory capacity? A randomized controlled cross-over experiment

Yali Feng et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) on working memory performance in healthy adults, specifically focusing on the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (LDLPFC) and right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (RDLPFC). The results showed significant time effects on overall accuracy in both 2-back and 3-back tasks, as well as on total reaction time in 3-back tasks. However, there were no significant interaction effects between time and group.

Intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) versus 10 Hz high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to alleviate treatment-resistant unipolar depression: A randomized controlled trial (THETA-DEP)

Samuel Bulteau et al.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy of 10 Hz rTMS and iTBS in the treatment of resistant unipolar depression and evaluated their impact on quality of life. The results showed that both treatments had a similar effect in reducing depression scores and improving quality of life after 6 months. No clinical factors were found to predict the therapeutic response.

Understanding Connections and Boundaries Between Positive Symptoms, Negative Symptoms, and Role Functioning Among Individuals With Schizophrenia A Network Psychometric Approach

Samuel J. Abplanalp et al.

Summary: This study utilized network psychometrics to explore the associations and structure between positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and functional domains in individuals with schizophrenia. The findings indicate that anhedonia plays a central role and is connected to multiple functional domains.

Quality of life in patients with schizophrenia: A 2-year cohort study in primary mental health care in rural China

Xiao-Yan He et al.

Summary: This study examined the quality of life (QoL) of patients with schizophrenia in primary mental health care in China, and identified risk factors for QoL over time. The findings showed that the physical, environmental, and social relationships domains of QoL improved after a 2-year period, but the psychological domain did not. Factors such as earlier age of onset, older age, employment status, marital status, waist circumference, medication usage, hospitalizations, insomnia, depressive and negative symptoms, and treatment insight were independently associated with poor QoL in patients with schizophrenia.

Intermittent theta burst stimulation for negative symptoms of schizophrenia-A double-blind, sham-controlled pilot study

Remy Bation et al.

Summary: This study investigated the clinical and biological effects of intermittent theta burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (iTBS) on treatment-resistant negative symptoms of schizophrenia. The findings showed that active iTBS significantly decreased the severity of negative symptoms, potentially driven by significant modulation of dopamine transmission.

Comparative study of emotion recognition and theory of mind between major depressive disorder and schizophrenia

Keane Lim et al.

Summary: The study found that individuals with schizophrenia performed poorer in emotion recognition and theory of mind tasks compared to those with major depressive disorder and healthy controls. There was no statistically significant difference in social cognitive performance between individuals with major depressive disorder and healthy controls.

Large-scale evaluation of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) symptom architecture in schizophrenia

Keane Lim et al.

Summary: This study established a five-factor PANSS model from a large multi-ethnic sample, validated its consistency with existing PANSS models through meta-analysis, and evaluated its temporal stability and generalizability to individuals at ultra-high risk (UHR) of psychosis. The findings provide crucial evidence for a common PANSS structure that can enhance our understanding of schizophrenia.
