结局指标
主要结局
Changes of total scores of Repetitive Behavior Scale-Revised
时间窗: baseline; post TBS (8 weeks after baseline); One month follow up (4 weeks after post TBS)
Repetitive Behavior Scale-Revised is a questionnaire that focuses on repetitive behavior. The score ranges from 0-129. The lower scores stand for lower repetitive behavior.
Changes of total scores of Social Responsiveness Scale
时间窗: baseline; post TBS (8 weeks after baseline); One month follow up (4 weeks after post TBS)
Social Responsiveness Scale can measure the autism clinical severity with the range from 65-260. The lower scores stand for better social responsiveness.
次要结局
- MRI T1(baseline; post TBS (8 weeks after baseline))
- Changes of total scores of Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function(baseline; post TBS (8 weeks after baseline); One month follow up (4 weeks after post TBS))
