Abstract | OBJECTIVE: EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: PRINCIPAL OBSERVATIONS: Seven of the depressed patients reported significant improvement in depressive symptomatology, and seven of the schizophrenic subjects reported amelioration of anxiety and restlessness. CONCLUSIONS: These preliminary results suggest that low-frequency rTMS may be beneficial mainly in MD and to some extent in schizophrenia, and support the need for controlled studies to further validate its therapeutic potential.
