Self-criticism predicts antidepressant effects of intermittent theta-burst stimulation in Major Depressive Disorder
Our data suggests that iTBS to the left DLPFC engages a circuit related to self-criticism. Higher levels of self-criticism predicted better response to iTBS with an adjuvant that enhances synaptic plasticity. This suggests that personality traits may be used to tailor non-invasive neurostimulation treatments.
