Summary

This study tested whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) could improve thinking and walking while doing two things at once in people with Parkinson's disease. 41 participants received either real or fake rTMS sessions over two weeks. The real treatment led to better cognitive scores and improved mobility during complex tasks, with no serious side effects.
