What is Hirnstimulation zur selektiven Behandlung von Zielsymptomen der Schizophrenie: Nichtinvasive und invasive Konzepte about?

Given that one third of patients with schizophrenia (SZ) only show limited response to established treatments, alternative therapeutic strategies such as non-invasive/invasive brain stimulation approaches have emerged as an adjunctive treatment option for distinct SZ symptom domains (e.g. acoustic hallucinations, negative/positive symptoms and cognitive impairment). Taking comparative interventional studies and standardized technical parameters into consideration, current meta-analyses indicate that adjunctive electroconvulsive therapy, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation have a positive effect. Invasive deep brain stimulation and MR-guided ultrasound brain ablation procedures represent treatment modalities that are currently being clinically tested. Complementary pre-interventional screening approaches (e.g. electrophysiology, neuroimaging and molecular inflammatory profiling) have been recommended in order to identify symptom-tailored predictive measures for diagnosis and treatment.
