What this study is about
This trial is testing a treatment that combines repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and cognitive training to improve brain connectivity in people with schizophrenia. The goal of it is to see if this combination can help strengthen connections between different areas of the brain, which may be disrupted in schizophrenia.
Simplified from trial records by PatientMatch.
What you may be asked to do
- 1.Participate in Cognitive Training
- 2.Use Active rTMS
Participation Burden

How treatment is administered
Everyone gets the investigational treatment.
Extracted study details
Pulled from the trial record to show what is being tested and what the study is measuring.
Primary: Brain connectivity as indicated by resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) values as assessed by functional MRI (fMRI), Brain microstructural integrity as indicated by white matter fractional anisotropy (FA) values as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Secondary: Depression as assessed by the Beck Depression Inventory, Depression as assessed by the Calgary Depression Scale
