Anxiety and stress study for adults with PTSD
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how the brain processes anxiety and stress in people with PTSD and healthy adults. It uses brain scans and mild electrical stimulation to understand these responses better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Aged 18 to 50 years
- Right-handed
- Normal or corrected vision and sense of smell
- No major medical or neurological conditions (like seizures, stroke, or Parkinson's)
- No history of head injury with loss of consciousness for more than 5 minutes
- If you take medication for PTSD, it must have been stable for the last 2 months

This study looks at how anxiety and stress show up in the brain in people with PTSD, using brain stimulation and brain scanning. If you’re eligible, it may help researchers understand your symptoms and how they relate to brain activity.
This study tests different patterns of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to see how they affect brain and body functions in people with both PTSD and major depression. It aims to find the best way to use this non-invasive treatment to help improve symptoms.
This study tests a personalized form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)—a non-invasive brain stimulation technique—to help treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in military veterans and former service members. The goal is to reduce PTSD symptoms by stimulating specific brain areas tailored to each person.
This study tests a brain-stimulation treatment called TMS to see if it improves how people with PTSD unlearn fear and form safer memories. It may help reduce fear responses by targeting specific fear-circuit areas in the brain.
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation method called iTBS to see if it can help people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). You would receive the treatment and be monitored for changes in your symptoms.
This study uses MRI brain scans and a noninvasive brain stimulation (TMS) to better understand PTSD in the brain. It may help researchers identify brain patterns linked to PTSD and how brain stimulation affects them.
