Effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on motor ability, neurophysiological changes, mental health, and activities of daily living in spinal cord injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Puntos clave
Motor ability improved significantly with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy, enhancing overall function.
Participants showed notable neurophysiological changes, including increased connectivity and brain activity in treated areas.
Observational analysis of multiple studies assessed variables relating to mental health and daily living activities.
Findings suggest that this intervention may enable better recovery in spinal cord injury patients, necessitating further large-scale trials.
