Transcranial magnetic stimulation implementation on stroke prognosis

Stella Karatzetzou et al.

Summary: Motor evoked potentials (MEPs) recording is indicative of a favorable prognosis concerning the motor recovery, swallowing and speech difficulties, and the patient's general functional outcome in stroke survivors. Conversely, MEP absence is usually associated with poor prognosis.

Task-Related Hemodynamic Changes Induced by High-Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Chronic Stroke Patients: An Uncontrolled Pilot fNIRS Study

Heegoo Kim et al.

Summary: This study investigates the cortical hemodynamic changes caused by HD-tDCS on the ipsilesional motor cortical area in stroke patients, and finds that HD-tDCS can increase cortical activation and reduce the hemodynamic burden on the affected hemisphere during hand motor tasks, improving upper extremity function.

Altered excitability of motor neuron pathways after stroke: more than upper motor neuron impairments

Pingping Li et al.

Summary: This study found that both upper motor neuron and lower motor neuron excitabilities are reduced after stroke, and structural damage in the median nerve occurs 12 weeks after stroke. In addition, resting motor threshold and resting motor threshold lateralisation are predictors of stroke prognosis and motor impairment.

No robust online effects of transcranial direct current stimulation on corticospinal excitability

Steven Pillen et al.

Summary: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been used for over twenty years to modulate cortical excitability. However, its effects are highly variable, partially due to the lack of individual adjustment of stimulation intensity. This study explored an empirical approach of personalizing tDCS intensity based on dose-response curves (DRCs), but found that online tDCS effects were not sufficiently robust. Additionally, attempts to replicate the reported bidirectional online MEP modulation during tDCS were unsuccessful.

Assessing the Usage of Indirect Motor Pathways Following a Hemiparetic Stroke

Runfeng Tian et al.

Summary: A hallmark impairment in stroke patients is the loss of independent joint control leading to abnormal co-activation of shoulder abductor and elbow flexor muscles. The study suggests that increased reliance on contralesional indirect motor pathways may cause this flexion synergy. By assessing brain-muscle connectivity, researchers found that nonlinear connectivity may indicate the usage of indirect motor pathways following a hemiparetic stroke.
