Abstract

We previously demonstrated that the difference between 11 PM and 8 AM TSH response to protirelin (TRH) tests on the same day (ΔΔTSH test) is an improved measure in detecting hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis dysregulation in depression. This chronobiological index is normalized after successful antidepressant treatment. The present study aimed at assessing the effects repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) on the HPT axis activity in treatment resistant depressed inpatients (TRDs).
