Implication

Randomized controlled trial shows improved upper limb function in stroke patients, indicating the potential of brain plasticity and cortical excitability enhancements.

Key Points

Significant improvements in upper limb function were observed with tDCS and VR-based robotic intervention, enhancing recovery after stroke.
Increased scores in functional near-infrared spectroscopy indicated greater cortical excitability in the experimental group compared to controls.
Single-blinded randomized controlled trial included 40 patients with subacute ischemic stroke divided between experimental and control groups.
This intervention may support strategies for rehabilitation, but activity of daily life improvements were not significantly different.
