Interventional Study.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07843875). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Capital Medical University. Recruitment status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 90 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Interventions: DEVICE: Personalized Functional-Connectivity-Targeted Accelerated iTBS; DEVICE: Sham Accelerated iTBS. Primary outcome measures: Change in Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score From pre-treatment baseline (Day -1) to 4 weeks post-treatment (Week 4; Day 34, corresponding to 28 days after the first post-treatment assessment visit) , Pre-treatment baseline (Day -1) to 4 weeks post-treatment (Week 4; Day 34). Brief summary: This randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of individualized functional connectivity-guided accelerated intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) in adults with major depressive disorder (MDD). A total of 90 participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either active iTBS or matched sham stimulation. Treatment will be administered over 5 consecutive days, with 10 stimulation sessions per day. For each participant, an individualized stimulation target within the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex will be identified using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The primary objective is to compare the change in depressive symptoms, measured by the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), from pre-treatment baseline (Day -1) to 4 weeks post-treatment (Week 4; Day 34) between the active and sham groups. Changes in other clinical symptoms, treatment response, remission, and safety will also be assessed during follow-up through 8 weeks after treatment. Multimodal MRI, resting-state electroencephalography (EEG), and transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with EEG (TMS-EEG) will be collected at prespecified time points. These measures will be used to explore treatment-related changes in brain function and connectivity and to identify potential neuroimaging and neurophysiological biomarkers associated with clinical improvement and the maintenance of treatment effects.
