Interventions
Radiation: rTMS 10HZ high frequency stimulation
Behavioral: psychological rehabilitation training
Behavioral: physical and neurological rehabilitation training
Radiation: fake rTMS 10HZ high frequency stimulation
Registration Number
NCT02285556
Lead Sponsor
Shanghai Mental Health Center
Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to inspire new medical ideas using brain image technology for the treatment of Amphetamine Type Stimulus addition, at the same time lowing the addition damage.

Detailed Description

The study will increase the sample size based on the preliminary work,also, establish drug dependence induced craving associated environmental experiments , by using the multi-lead biofeedback instrument , CogState tester, event-related potentials Recorder and 3.0T high-field magnetic resonance imaging system to record the physiology , electrophysiology and brain changes during craving, taking a subjective self-assessment , clinical observations and physiological responses combined system to evaluate the ATS addiction degree.

the prevalence of ATS abuse or dependence characteristics and pathogenesisBaseline

Plasma and DNA samples were collected to carry out the biochemical genetics and immunology research of ATS abuse or dependence , and to explore the prevalence of ATS abuse or dependence characteristics and pathogenesis.

the physiological psychology and cognitive impairment characteristic of ATS addicts,trends and ATS conducted cases.Baseline

Use repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status(RBANS),Cog-state cognitive function assessment test,event-related potentials(ERPs),functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) in biology ( molecular genetics, blood biochemistry, electrophysiology , imaging ) , psychology, mental health and other aspects of the system to assess the physiological psychology and cognitive impairment characteristic of ATS addicts , trends and ATS conducted cases.
