Randomized trial shows cerebellar tACS enhances motor recovery in stroke patients, suggesting a new rehabilitation approach.

Active cerebellar tACS paired with repetitive motor training led to better upper limb recovery in stroke patients.
Participants receiving active stimulation improved FMA-UE scores by 11.2 points compared to the sham group's 3.8 points.
The study utilized a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial design involving 52 patients with unilateral upper limb hemiparesis.
These results indicate that cerebellar neuromodulation could be an effective complement to conventional stroke rehabilitation.

Mohammed et al. (2025) studied this question.
