Inclusion Criteria: 1. Diagnosed as essential tremor conforming to the diagnostic criteria for essential tremor in the tremor group of the International Parkinson's and Movement Disorders Society (IPMDS). 2. Signed informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Complicated with brain organic diseases, epilepsy, other mental diseases, family history of dementia, metal devices implanted in the body and any contraindications to TMS; 2. History of craniocerebral surgery; 3. TMS cannot cooperate; 4. TMS-EEG examination artifacts are obvious, or cannot be analyzed due to other technical reasons.

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • The efficacy of the treatment on the essential tremor evaluated by Essential Tremor Rating Assessment Scale (TETRAS) score — visit 1(baseline), visit 2(Day 10), visit 3(Day 30)
    The TETRAS is widely used tremor evaluation scale.TETRAS has been used for evaluation tremor in patients with essential tremor focuses primarily on the assessment of activities of daily living and tremor.The TETRAS score ranges from 0 to 112. The higher the TETRAS score, the more severe the symptoms.
  • Changes from baseline in tremor analysis — visit 1(baseline), visit 2(Day 10), visit 3(Day 30)
    This outcome reflects quantitative changes in the patient's tremor.
