Abstract

Prefrontal repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been shown to increase striatal dopaminergic activity. Here we investigated dopaminergic neurotransmission using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and [(123)I]IBZM to indirectly assess the change in endogenous striatal dopamine concentration upon rTMS as compared with d-amphetamine challenge. SPECT imaging was performed twice each in five patients during rTMS, and in two patients who received 0.3 mg/kg D-amphetamine. Administration of rTMS led to a mean relative decrease in striatal IBZM binding by 9.6+/-6.2%, and d-amphetamine challenge (n=4) induced a mean relative reduction by 8+/-2.95% (difference not statistically significant). Acute rTMS challenge showed similar striatal dopaminergic effects to those associated with the administration of d-amphetamine, a substance known to increase synaptic dopamine.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
