Neuroendocrine Mapping of the Cerebral Cortex

NCT04183153 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2021-10-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is investigating brain regions that share functional connectivity with the hypothalamus and the stimulation of those regions using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to activate the hypothalamus indirectly. The goal of this study is to determine the effectiveness of rTMS in influencing the hypothalamus to better understand the mechanisms between it and the neuroendocrine processes it controls.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

DEVICE

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Participants will receive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to determine if stimulating areas with activating functional connectivity will activate the hypothalamus and in turn, have a measurable effect on hormone levels.
