Effects of theta burst stimulation on cognitive function and characteristics of blood oxygen alterations based on near-infrared spectroscopy in chronic schizophrenia
TBS may have the potential to improve brain activity by enhancing the blood oxygen consumption of the stimulation target, as indicated by the fNIRS findings. Then, it may contribute to improvements in cognitive function of patients with chronic schizophrenia. However, the age of the patients may be an independent factor influencing the prediction of the treatment effect.
