Conclusions
fNIRS helped screen and diagnose PISEI. A single TMS session benefited PISEI patients with effects lasting 3 days, which may be attributed to activation of the left DLPFC, right PMC and right SM1 brain regions.fNIRS can be used as an auxiliary diagnostic tool for PISEI. TMS has a certain therapeutic effect on PISEI patients, and the effect can be maintained for 3 days, which may be attributed to the activation of left DLPFC, right PMC and SM1 brain regions and the enhancement of synergism of neural remodeling.
