“…In comparison to the other NIBS expected to induce inhibitory effects, such as cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) ( Nitsche and Paulus, 2000 ), low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (LF-rTMS) ( Chen et al, 1997 ), continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) ( Huang et al, 2005 ), which induce electric current flow, tSMS (that induces SMF) causes less discomfort to the participants and is safe, economical, and easy to handle. In the past decade, various local brain regions such as the sensorimotor ( Silbert et al, 2013 ; Kirimoto et al, 2014 , 2016 , 2018 ; Nojima et al, 2015 , 2019 ; Davila-Perez et al, 2019 ; Nakagawa et al, 2019 ; Shibata et al, 2020 ), supplementary motor ( Kirimoto et al, 2016 ; Pineda-Pardo et al, 2019 ; Tsuru et al, 2020 ; Guida et al, 2023 ), visual ( Gonzalez-Rosa et al, 2015 ; Oliviero et al, 2015 ; Lozano-Soto et al, 2018 ), and dorsolateral prefrontal ( Sheffield et al, 2019 ; Chen et al, 2021 ; Watanabe et al, 2021 , 2023 ; Soto-León et al, 2023 ) cortices have been revealed to be modulated by tSMS, with potential clinical applications for neurological disorders ( Di Lazzaro et al, 2021 ; Dileone et al, 2022 ; Shimomura et al, 2023 ). In addition, a new tSMS device constructed with three NdFeB magnets (called “SHIN jiba”) was introduced last year, and simulation has revealed that this triple tSMS can produce the greater static magnetic fields than the conventional tSMS ( Shibata et al, 2022 ).…”
