NCT ID NCT02220309

Summary

This Stanford University study aimed to understand which brain circuits are involved in anxiety and depression. Researchers enrolled 167 adults experiencing symptoms and offered them an 8-week treatment course of either medication (Pramipexole) or magnetic brain stimulation (rTMS). The goal was to learn how brain activity relates to symptoms and test alternative treatments for people who haven't benefited from standard approaches.
