“…This approach has been associated to clinically relevant behavioral changes in patients with addictive disorders (Ekhtiari et al, 2019), affecting craving, intake and relapse (Diana et al, 2017). To date, high-frequency rTMS protocols over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, a key node for the executive control network (Shirer, Ryali, Rykhlevskaia, Menon & Greicius, 2012), are effective in reducing craving, substance consumption and withdrawal symptoms of SUD, including alcohol (Addolorato et al, 2017;Mishra, Nizamie, Das & Praharaj, 2010;Mishra, Praharaj, Katshu, Sarkar & Nizamie, 2015), tobacco (Amiaz, Levy, Vainiger, Grunhaus & Zangen, 2009;Eichhammer et al, 2003;Hayashi, Ko, Strafella & Dagher, 2013;Johann et al, 2003;Li et al, 2013), cocaine (G omez P erez et al, 2020;Hanlon et al, 2015;Madeo et al, 2020;Pettorruso et al, 2019;Politi, Fauci, Santoro, & Smeraldi, 2008;Sanna et al, 2019;Steele, Maxwell, Ross, Stein, & Salmeron, 2019;Terraneo et al, 2016), methamphetamine (Liang, Wang & Yuan, 2018;Su et al, 2017) and heroin (Shen et al, 2016). Preliminary findings also suggest that these protocols might ameliorate gambling disorder symptoms (Cardullo et al, 2019;Pettorruso et al, 2020).…”
