Abstract

En 中文
Background and Objectives Gambling and alcohol use disorders are highly comorbid. We investigated the safety and efficacy of high-intensity transcranial alternating current stimulation (HI-tACS) for this dual diagnosis.Methods This case report presents a 33-year-old female with GD-AUD who received HI-tACS (15 mA, 77.5 Hz, 20 sessions).Results Posttreatment, inhibitory control improved. At the 3-month follow-up, the patient maintained complete abstinence from both gambling and alcohol. The intervention was well-tolerated.Discussion and Conclusions HI-tACS is a safe, efficacious potential treatment for GD-AUD comorbidity.Scientific Significance This first application of HI-tACS for GD-AUD comorbidity provides preliminary evidence, warranting larger controlled trials.
