Should we treat auditory hallucinations with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation? A metaanalysis.
OBJECTIVE Abnormal activations of neural networks implicated in auditory stimuli processing are hypothesized to generate auditory hallucinations (AH) in schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Because repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has the potential to modulate neural network activity, several studies have explored its use in treating medication-resistant AH, with mixed results i...

believe that research from LMICs also allows further understanding of emotional, behavioral, and intellectual abilities in a variety of risk and protective contexts, thus leading to a deeper understanding of the biological and psychosocial processes underlying mental illness and health in general. This will require an expansion in the output of high-quality research focused on those most vulner...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been shown to be effective in modulating cerebral cortex activity. Most of the published controlled studies have reported that left temporoparietal area stimulation with 1 Hz frequencies has managed to improve auditory hallucinations at least partially and transiently in patients suffering from schizophrenia. These stimulation parameters have been dem...
متن کاملThe Experience of Patients with Schizophrenia Treated with Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Auditory Hallucinations
Introduction. Auditory hallucinations are a common symptom experience of individuals with psychotic disorders and are often experienced as persistent, distressing, and disruptive. This case series examined the lived experiences of four individuals treated (successfully or unsuccessfully) with low-frequency (1 Hz) rTMS for auditory hallucinations. Methods. A phenomenological approach was used an...
متن کاملShould repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) be considered an effective adjunctive treatment for auditory hallucinations in patients with schizophrenia?
• 254 • • Forum • The experience of auditory hallucinations, especially verbal hallucinations, is a common psychotic symptom in persons with schizophrenia, but in about 30% of these individuals traditional treatment with antipsychotic medication is not effective in reducing the hallucinations. For this subgroup of patients, alternative forms of treatment need to be assessed. The occurrence of a...
