However, this situation has deteriorated human health, social well-being, and environmental sustainability, with issues such as air pollution, acid rain, and global climate change. Consequently, sustainable development strategies have been widely followed around the world.

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an increasingly used non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) tool to examine the functional role of cortical areas and brain networks.

Factors Affecting Residential Energy-Saving Renovation Decisions
The industrial, transportation, residential, and commercial sectors add to global energy use. Specifically, the residential sector is responsible for about 21% of global energy consumption, or 17% of CO2 emissions. Increased energy consumption poses substantial risks to public health and the natural environment. Therefore, more efficient energy consumption across the entire energy chain can assist in environmental protection, climate change mitigation, and quality-of-life improvement, combined with money savings and increased national energy security.
