NCT05853939 · Status: ENROLLING_BY_INVITATION · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Summary

The goals of this study are to 1) use EEG steady-state visual evoked potentials as a noninvasive measure of the neuroplasticity induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), 2) use visual contrast detection paradigms as a behavioral measure of rTMS effects, and 3) to investigate how visual spatial attention augments or suppresses the neuroplastic impact of rTMS. Participants will observe visual stimuli on a screen while allocating their attention to different parts of the visual field and making responses when they observe changes in the visual stimuli. rTMS is performed to visual cortex using MRI-retinotopy neuronavigation. Then the visual task paradigm is performed again.

Conditions

  • Visual Cortical Plasticity
  • Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
  • Visual Attention

Interventions

DEVICE

repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

Repetitive TMS targeted by neuronavigation to left lower visual field of primary visual cortex. Randomized to 10 Hz or 1 Hz on different treatment days. Stimulation at 110% of phosphene threshold, or 110% resting motor threshold if phosphenes not detectable. 1 Hz: 1000 pulses total over 1000 seconds. 10 Hz: 1000 pulses over 10 10 second pulse trains, with 50 second intertrain intervals
