Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) scores from baseline to post-treatment

    The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, compiled in 1989 by Dr. Buysse, a psychiatrist at the University of Pittsburgh, and others. It is suitable for patients with sleep disorders to evaluate the quality of their sleep, as well as for the general population to assess the quality of their sleep. The scale consists of 9 questions, of which the first 4 are fill-in-the-blanks and the last 5 are multiple-choice (question 5 contains 10 sub-questions) Change = (treatment day 5 Score -Baseline Score).

    Baseline and treatment day 5

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Change in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Check List for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5 scores from baseline to treatment day 5

    Baseline and treatment day 5

  • Change in Stanford Acute Stress Reaction Questionnaire (SASRQ) scores from baseline to treatment day 5

    Baseline and treatment day 5

  • Change in Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD-17)scores from baseline to treatment day 5 Score

    Baseline and treatment day 5

  • Change in Hamilton Anxiety Scale scores from baseline to treatment day 5 Score

    Baseline and treatment day 5

  • Change in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Check List for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5 scores from baseline to 28 days after the end of treatment

    Baseline and 28 days after the end of treatment

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

active Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The most relevant site of functional connectivity between vlPFC-VTA will be targeted for continuous theta burst stimulation

Device: active Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

sham Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The most relevant site of functional connectivity between vlPFC-VTA will be targeted for sham continuous theta burst stimulation

Device: sham Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Interventions

Based on each individual's MRI data, individualized stimulation targets will be found, and then this will be used for stimulation for 5 consecutive days.

active Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Based on each individual's MRI data, individualized stimulation targets will be found, and then this will be used for sham stimulation for 5 consecutive days.
