Brief Summary: the aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of low frequency rTMS over the right dorsolateral prefrontal area (DLPFC) on Fibromyalgia patients. Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), Hamilton depression and Anxiety scale and different cognitive rating scales were evaluated pre-1 month post sessions and pre -post 3 months later. all eligible patients with fibromyalgia (FM) were randomized to have 20 sessions of active or sham rTMS over right DLPFC. The improvement changes in groups were compared in each rating scale.
Detailed Description: The present study was aimed to evaluate the effect of low frequency rTMS over the right dorsolateral prefrontal area (DLPFC) on Fibromyalgia patients. recruitment of the patients were consecutively. Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), psychiatric and cognitive scales were evaluated before rTMS. 42 eligible patients with fibromyalgia (FM) were randomly assigned to one of two groups with equal ratio. each patient received 20 sessions of active or sham rTMS (1 Hz, 120% of resting motor threshold with total 1200 pules /session) over right DLPFC. follow up of each patient was done blindly at , one and 3 months later with the same rating scales (FIQ, Hamilton depression and anxiety Rating Scales (HDRS and HARS), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT), Tower of London test (TOL), the Trail Making and Digit Span Tests). comparison between the changes in different rating scales were done at 1- and 3-months follow-up.
