Abstract
A network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was conducted to compare and rank the effectiveness of various noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD). We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), and Chinese Biomedical Literature Service System (SinoMed) databases from the date of database inception to April 30th, 2024. Two researchers independently screened studies of NIBS treatment in patients with PD based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Two researchers independently performed data extraction of the included studies using an Excel spreadsheet and assessed the quality of the literature according to the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool (RoB2). Network meta-analysis was performed in StataMP 17.0. A total of 28 studies involving 1628 PD patients were included. The results showed that HF-rTMS over the SMA (SMD = - 2.01; 95% CI [- 2.87, - 1.15]), HF-rTMS over the M1 and DLPFC (SMD = - 1.80; 95% CI [- 2.90, - 0.70]), HF-rTMS over the M1 (SMD = - 1.10; 95% CI [- 1.55, - 0.65]), a-tDCS over the DLPFC (SMD = - 1.08; 95% CI [- 1.90, - 0.27]), HF-rTMS over the M1 and PFC (SMD = - 0.92; 95% CI [- 1.71, - 0.14]), LF-rTMS over the M1 (SMD = - 0.72; 95% CI [- 1.17, - 0.28]), and HF-rTMS over the DLPFC (SMD = - 0.70; 95% CI [- 1.21, - 0.19]) were significantly improved motor function compared with sham stimulation. The SUCRA three highest ranked were HF-rTMS over the SMA (95.1%), HF-rTMS over the M1 and DLPFC (89.6%), and HF-rTMS over the M1 (73.0%). In terms of enhanced cognitive function, HF-rTMS over the DLPFC (SMD = 0.80; 95% CI [0.03,1.56]) was significantly better than sham stimulation. The SUCRA three most highly ranked were a-tDCS over the M1 (69.8%), c-tDCS over the DLPFC (66.9%), and iTBS over the DLPFC (65.3%). HF-rTMS over the M1 (SMD = - 1.43; 95% CI [- 2.26, - 0.61]) and HF-rTMS over the DLPFC (SMD = - 0.79; 95% CI [- 1.45, - 0.12)]) significantly improved depression. The SUCRA three highest ranked were HF-rTMS over the M1 (94.1%), LF-rTMS over the M1 (71.8%), and HF-rTMS over the DLPFC (69.0%). HF-rTMS over the SMA may be the best option for improving motor symptoms in PD patients. a-tDCS and HF-rTMS over the M1 may be the NIBS with the most significant effects on cognition and depression, separately.Trial registration: International Prospective Register of Systematic Review, PROSPERO (CRD42023456088).
