Abstract:
Negative symptoms of schizophrenia profoundly affect patients' social function and life quality, and traditional treatments have limited efficacy in improving these symptoms. In recent years, non-invasive brain stimulation techniques such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), and transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) have shown potentiality in alleviating negative symptoms. However, the selection of stimulation targets remains an area of active research, as different targets may yield varying therapeutic outcomes. Therefore, identifying the most appropriate treatment targets is crucial for improving negative symptoms. This article reviews the targets selection and therapeutic effects of different non-invasive brain stimulation techniques for ameliorating negative symptoms, to provide guidance for target selection in clinical treatment.
