Selecting stimulation intensity in repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation studies - Part 1

A comparison of the salient properties of research studies that use a technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to stimulate the brain. rTMS involves using a special device to send magnetic pulses into specific areas of the brain, which can help to treat various conditions such as depression, chronic pain, and stroke. The comparison reviewes studies published between 1991 and 2020 to understand how researchers have selected the intensity of the magnetic pulses used in their experiments. It is based on the review article "Selecting stimulation intensity in repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation studies: A systematic review between 1991 and 2020" by Turi et al., 2021.
