This trial tested a combination of Yizhi Kaiqiao herbal formula and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) versus rTMS alone in 178 preschool children with autism, measuring symptom severity, inflammatory markers, cognition, and social outcomes over 3 months. The combined treatment showed greater improvements across measured domains; however, the study lacks independent verification of the herbal formula's efficacy and relies on inflammatory biomarkers with unproven causal links to autism.
