No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The main objective of this study is to determine whether biological stress markers (Oxidized Phosphatidylcholines and Oxylipins) in the blood can be used to predict the efficacy of rTMS in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). It is our goal to identify biomarkers that may be used to determine which patients will benefit from rTMS treatment. A second objective of this study is to measure any changes in stress markers that occur across the course of rTMS therapy.
