Summary

This study tested whether combining motor imagery (thinking about moving without actually moving) with a type of brain stimulation called TMS could help people who had a stroke regain arm function. 24 adults who had a stroke at least one month prior participated. The goal was to see if this combination could improve brain signals to the wrist and finger muscles, potentially leading to better recovery.
