Summary

The study aimed to figure out brain structural and functional reorganization evidence after repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation through the method of neuroimaging brain network analysis, such as resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging and diffusion tensor imaging.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

real Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

The rTMS treatments were performed using a Medtronic MagPro type magnetic stimulation device (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) and a figure-of-eight coil (MC-B70, Medtronic). Coils were placed tangent to the scalp. The stimulation protocol involved 50 trains of 20 pulses applied over the ipsilesional M1 at a frequency of 5 HZ, with the stimulus intensity set at 120% of the resting motor threshold of the unaffected extremity.

DEVICE

sham Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

The sham rTMS was performed on the same site as the rTMS treatment group but without any true stimulations. Coils were placed perpendicular to the scalp.
