Conditions

Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Interventions

50ms:The right parietal lobe was stimulated first, followed by the right DLPFC. Coil A is stimulated 50ms earlier than coil B. Stimulation frequency:1Hz
Stimulation intensity: 90% of the resting motor threshold
1500 pulses/session
consecutive treatment of 14 days.
100ms:The right parietal lobe was stimulated first, followed by the right DLPFC. Coil A is stimulated 100ms earlier than coil B. Stimulation frequency:1Hz
150ms:The right parietal lobe was stimulated first, followed by the right DLPFC. Coil A is stimulated 150ms earlier than coil B. Stimulation frequency:1Hz
P4 group:Stimulation site is P4
Stimulation frequency:1Hz
Sham group:The stimulation parameters set by the sham group do not produce magnetic pulse output, only magnetic stimulation frequency. The sham-coil and the active coil are required to have the same a
