Effect of Different Modalities of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Post-stroke Upper Limb Motor Dysfunction: a Network Meta-analysis [PDF]
Background Upper limb motor dysfunction is a common complication after stroke that seriously affects daily living skills of patients. As a common neuroelectrohysiological technique, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has a good effect on

Preconditioning of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation with transcranial direct current stimulation: evidence for homeostatic plasticity in the human motor cortex [PDF]
Recent experimental work in animals has emphasized the importance of homeostatic plasticity as a means of stabilizing the properties of neuronal circuits. Here, we report a phenomenon that indicates a homeostatic pattern of cortical plasticity in healthy
