Alzheimer's disease

Interventions

Precise localization of cognitive impairment in rTMS group:The individual posterior cingulate cortex and the lateral parietal cortex were selected as the effective region and stimulation target, respe
Non-precise localization of cognitive impairment in rTMS group:The target was randomly selected 1 cm away from the strongest functional connectivity within the lateral parietal cortex.
Health control group:None
