Can cerebellar theta-burst stimulation improve balance function and gait in stroke patients? A randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Physical therapy is able to improve the functional recovery in hemiplegic patients after stroke, but the cerebellar iTBS can facilitate and accelerate the recovery, particularly the balance function and gait. Cerebellar iTBS could be an efficient and facilitative treatment for patients with stroke.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Cerebellar iTBS provides a convenient and efficient treatment modality for functional recovery of patients with stroke, especially balance function and gait.PMID:38577727 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.24.08307-2
