Sperimentale: Accelerated bilateral dmPFC-iTBS with double-cone coil
Participants received accelerated bilateral intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) targeting the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) using a Cool DB-80 double-cone coil.
Treatment consisted of four sessions per day, delivering 1,200 pulses per session (600 pulses per hemisphere, applied sequentially to left and right dmPFC), at 120% of resting motor threshold.
The total course comprised 20 to 30 sessions over 5 to 8 days.

Stimulation was delivered using a MagPro R30 stimulator equipped with a Cool DB-80 double-cone coil (MagVenture A/S, Farum, Denmark).
The stimulation site was localized using the 25% nasion-inion scalp heuristic for dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) targeting.
The intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) protocol consisted of triplet 50 Hz bursts repeated at 5 Hz, applied as 2-second trains with 8-second inter-train intervals.
Each session delivered 600 pulses sequentially to the left and right dmPFC (1,200 pulses per session), at a target intensity of 120% of the hemisphere-specific resting motor threshold.
Four sessions were delivered per day with approximately 50-minute inter-session intervals.
The total treatment course was 20 sessions over 5 days, extended to 30 sessions over 8 days for partial responders.

Change in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17) Score
Lasso di tempo: Baseline, Day 5, and Day 8 for extended courses
|
Depression severity was assessed using the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17) at baseline and within 1 week after completion of the accelerated iTBS course.
The HAMD-17 is a clinician-administered scale; scores range from 0 to 52, with higher scores indicating more severe depression.
Treatment response was defined as a 50% or greater reduction from baseline HAMD-17 score, and remission as a post-treatment HAMD-17 score of 7 or lower.

Lasso di tempo |

|
Heart rate deceleration during stimulation
Lasso di tempo: Through completion of the treatment course, up to 8 days
|
Heart rate was continuously sampled at 1-second intervals using a Polar H10 chest strap during every stimulation session.
Heart rate deceleration (HRD) was calculated as the percentage reduction from the 1-minute pre-stimulation baseline heart rate to the mean stimulation heart rate, using the formula: HRD (%) = [(HR_baseline - HR_stimulation) / HR_baseline] x 100.
HRD was computed across four parameters (all left-sided sessions, all right-sided sessions, highest-intensity left-sided sessions, highest-intensity right-sided sessions) and averaged per participant.
Higher values indicate greater stimulation-induced heart rate deceleration.

Through completion of the treatment course, up to 8 days

Change in Beck Depression Inventory (BDI)
Lasso di tempo: Baseline, Day 5, and Day 8 for extended courses
|
Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), a self-report scale; total scores range from 0 to 63, with higher scores indicating more severe depression.

Resting State Quantitative EEG (qEEG) Spectral Power and Theta Cordance
Lasso di tempo: Baseline and completion of treatment (Day5 or Day8 for extended courses)
|
Absolute spectral power in the delta, theta, alpha, and beta frequency bands, derived from quantitative resting-state EEG (qEEG) analysis.
Power was computed across standard electrode regions.
Prefrontal theta cordance, a quantitative EEG measure combining absolute and relative theta-band power at prefrontal electrodes, derived from resting-state qEEG analysis.

Heart-Brain Coupling (HBC): Heart Rate Oscillation Power at the Stimulation Frequency
Lasso di tempo: Single dedicated measurement session after the target dose was reached, up to Day 8
|
Heart-brain coupling (HBC), a parameter quantifying the strength of stimulation-induced heart rate deceleration, computed as the mean oscillation power of cardiac rate at the frequency determined by the stimulation train interval (Dijkstra et al., 2023).
HBC ranges from 0 to 1. Measurements were obtained in a dedicated session using a 10 Hz protocol (50 pulses per train, 5-second train duration, 15 trains, 11-second inter-train interval), recorded with a Polar H10 chest strap and the HeartBrainConnect application.
HBC was assessed sequentially at four sites per participant: left dmPFC, left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), right dmPFC and right DLPFC.
For each site, stimulation began at 28% below target intensity and increased by 2% per train, yielding 15 HBC values that were averaged to produce a per-site HBC value.

EEG Microstate Temporal Parameters
Lasso di tempo: Baseline and completion of treatment (Day5 or Day8 for extended courses)
|
Temporal parameters of the canonical resting-state EEG microstate classes (A, B, C, and D), including mean duration (milliseconds), occurrence (mean appearances per second), time coverage (percentage of recording time), and transition probabilities between classes.
Parameters were derived from microstate segmentation of resting-state EEG recordings.
