Exercise and brain stimulation for older adults with schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining exercise with a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called peripheral magnetic stimulation (PMS) can improve mental, physical, and social well-being in older adults with schizophrenia. It could help if you have stable symptoms and are looking for a new way to feel better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial studies how a structured exercise program may affect brain health in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. It may help researchers understand whether exercise can support brain function and overall health in this condition.
This trial studies whether structured physical training can change brain “signal wiring” in people with schizophrenia. Researchers will also look at related molecular changes to understand why exercise might improve symptoms.
This study looks at how exercise affects brain function in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. It may help researchers understand whether exercise can improve brain-related outcomes alongside standard treatment.
This study tests whether basal stimulation therapy, a gentle sensory treatment, can improve well-being in older adults with schizophrenia. It may help with daily functioning and comfort.
This study tests whether aerobic exercise alone, or exercise combined with a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS, can improve thinking and memory in people with treatment-resistant schizophrenia.
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation called TMS to see if it can change brain connections that may be linked to symptoms. It might help people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder who are stable on their current medications.
