Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMini Mental State Examination(MMSE)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in MMSE will constitute the primary research outcome.The full name of MMSE is mini-mental state examination, and the scale consists of 30 subject, include the following seven aspects: time orientation, place orientation,immediate memory,attention and calculation,delay memory,language, visual space.One point is awarded for each question correctly answered during MMSE evaluation. If subject give the wrong answer or don't know answer he/she awarded 0 score, scope of scale score of 0 to 30 points. The higher the score, the better. In this study, changes in MMSE scores before and after treatment were used as primary observations,the investigators hoped that scores would increase after treatment.
PrimaryAlzheimers Disease Assessment Scale Cognitive section(ADAS-Cog)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in Alzheimers Disease Assessment Scale Cognitive section (ADAS-Cog) will constitute the major research outcome measure used to assess response to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).The ADAS-COG scale tests orientation, language, structure, use of ideas, immediate recall of words and word re-recognition, and consists of 11 questions out of a possible 70 points, with the higher the score the more cognitively impaired.
SecondaryMontreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in MoCA will constitute assess response to TMS the secondary research outcome measure used to.MoCA was developed by Nasreddine et al. based on clinical experience and reference to the MMSE cognitive items and scores, and the final version was finalized in November 2004. The investigators adopted a localized version (Mandarin version#includes 2 alternative versions) in line with the Chinese cultural background.It includes 11 inspection items in 8 cognitive fields, including visual structure skills, executive function, naming, attention and calculation, language, abstract thinking, memory, and orientation. With a total score of 30 or more than 26, it is normal. Anyone who has been education for less than 12 years will need to add one point to his final score. The final score of the higher the better, and the investigators hope the subjects' scores will improve after treatment
SecondaryDigital Span Test; Forward and Backward(DST)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in DST will constitute the secondary research outcome. Digital span test (DST) was commonly used to evaluate attention ability and instantaneous memory ability. There are two types of test: forward(0-14) and backward(0-13). In the forward test, the subjects were asked to retell the the digits immediately after hearing it untilthey could not be repeated correctly.In backward test, the subjects were asked to repeat a set of numbers in reverse order until they could not be repeated correctly. The length of the last set of Numbers correctly repeated by the subjects was the final score, forward and backward are counted separately. The higher the score, the better. In this study, the investigators hoped that scores would increase after treatment.
SecondaryTrail Making Test(TMT )baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in TMT will constitute the secondary research outcome. The Trail Making Test (TMT) is divided into two parts, part A and part B. Part A requires the subject to connect 25 Numbers on the paper in sequence, and partB requires the subject to connect 25 Numbers of different colors alternately in sequence. The time it takes for the subject to complete all the Numbers is the subject's final score.In this study, the investigators hoped that scores would decrease after treatment.
SecondaryHamilton Depression Scale(HAMD )baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in HAMD will constitute the secondary research outcome. Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) compiled by Hamilton in 1960, is the most common clinical to assess Depression Scale. In this study, 17 versions were selected, and there were 17 questions. The subjects were assessed for their depression in the past week. Each question scored between 0 and 4 points.Higher scores indicate more depressive symptoms. The severity of the disease and the therapeutic effect can be evaluated after treatment. In this study, the investigators hoped that scores would decrease after treatment
SecondaryHamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in HAMA will constitute the secondary research outcome. Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) was compiled by Hamilton in 1959.It was one of the most commonly used scales in psychiatric clinic, including 14 items. It is often used in clinical diagnosis and degree classification of anxiety disorder. The subjects were assessed for their anxiety in the past week. Each question scored between 0 and 4 points. The higher the score, the more symptoms of anxiety. The severity of the disease and the therapeutic effect can be evaluated after treatment. In this study, the investigators hoped that scores would decrease after treatment.
SecondaryNeuropsychiatric Inventory(NPI)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes NPI will constitute the secondary research outcome. The Neuropsychology Scale (NPI) evaluates 12 neuropsychiatric disorders which included 10 neuropsychiatric symptoms and 2 autonomic neurological symptoms based on the caregiver's perception of the patient's behavior and the perceived distress. Each item was evaluated for its occurrence frequency (1-4 points) and severity (1-3 points). The frequency and severity were multiplied to obtain the score (0-12 points) of each item.The patient's assessment rating ranges from 0 to 144, and the caregiver's distress rating score is 0 to 60. The lower the score, the lighter the symptoms, and the investigators expect the score to go down after treatment.
SecondaryGeriatric depression scale(GDS)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
he changes in GDS will constitute assess response to TMS the secondary research outcome measure.The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) was created in 1982 by Brank et al. and is dedicated to screening for depression in the elderly. The most suitable feelings for the elderly in the past week were evaluated.There are 30 items in the scale, the total score is 30 points. The higher the score, the more obvious the depressive symptoms. It is generally considered that less than 10 points is normal.And the investigators hope the subjects' scores will decrease after treatment.
SecondaryJudgment of line Judgment of line orientation test orientation test(JLOT)baseline, 2 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment
The changes in JLOT (Judgment of line Judgment of line orientation test orientation test) will constitute assess response to TMS the secondary research outcome measure.The JLOT test was determined by Benton et al. in 1994. There are two versions of H and V. The difference is that the order in which the pictures are presented is different. Each version contains 35 images, of which the official test consists of 30 images, and the other 5 images are for the participants to learn. The final score is the correct number of subjects to answer, the full score is 30 points, the higher the score, the better the space perception ability of the subject.The investigators hope the subjects' scores will improve after treatment.
