Abstract:
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease,pathogenesis of which is extremely complex.To explore the potential pathophysiological mechanism of PD and find effective treatment methods to improve symptoms,modify the disease and delay the progression are the major problems to be solved urgently.Studies have shown that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has a broad clinical application prospect,which might help clinicians to explore the pathophysiological mechanism of PD and provide new ideas for exploring new targets for diagnosis and treatment in the future.Meanwhile,TMS might play important roles in the treatment of PD motor and non-motor symptoms through enhancing synaptic plasticity,protecting monoamine neurons,increasing the monoamine neurotransmitter level in the brain,and adjusting the brain network with dysfunction.
