Effects of Cerebellar Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Patients with Stroke: a Systematic Review

CONCLUSIONS: ctDCS appears to improve poststroke language and motor dysfunction (particularly gait). However, the evidence for these results was insufficient, and the quality of the relevant studies was low. ctDCS stimulation parameters and individual factors of participants may affect the therapeutic effect of ctDCS. Researchers need to take a more regulated approach in the future to conduct studies with large sample sizes. Overall, ctDCS remains a promising stroke intervention technique that could be used in the future.PMID:36028789 | DOI:10.1007/s12311-022-01464-7
