Summary

Closed-loop transcranial temporal interference stimulation (tTIS) targeting the nucleus accumbens may modulate abnormal neural responses to drug-related cues in individuals with methamphetamine use disorder (MUD), thereby reducing drug craving and improving cognitive and behavioral control. Stimulation will be delivered in real time according to each patient's cue-induced response time.

Conditions

  • Amphetamine Use Disorders

Interventions

DEVICE

Temporal Interference Stimulation

Each session will comprise 240 trials, during which stimulation may be triggered up to 10 times according to the participant's cue-reactivity state. Each stimulation will consist of a 5-s current ramp-up, 30 s of continuous stimulation, and a 5-s current ramp-down. The intervention will be administered once daily for five consecutive days.

DEVICE

Shame

The stimulation parameters-including frequency, current intensity, and duration-are identical to those in the active group. However, the sham stimulation mode is activated on the device, resulting in consist of a 5-s current ramp-up, but 0 s of continuous stimulation during the stimulation.
