Objective To investigate the effect of iTBS stimulation on walking function in patients with stroke. Methods Fifty patients with post-stroke walking dysfunction who met the inclusion criteria were selected for 3-week rehabilitation treatment, and were randomly divided into iTBS group) n = 25) and sham group) n = 25). The iTBS group was treated with conventional rehabilitation therapy combined with iTBS stimulation of contralesional cerebellum, and the sham group was treated with conventional rehabilitation therapy plus iTBS stimulation of contralesional cerebellum. Relevant indicators were analyzed before treatment and at 21 days of treatment. Lower limb motor function scores of the two groups were compared before and after treatment. Fugl-Meyer motor function lower limb activity score, Berg Balance Scale score, Brunnstrom stage) lower limb), hamstring/quadriceps) H/Q) on the affected side, Modified Barthel index ) MBI), gait analysis parameters, and TMS-MEP were used to evaluate the effectiveness of cerebellar iTBS in the rehabilitation of walking dysfunction after stroke. Results After 21 days of treatment, the improvements of Brunnstrom stage, Holden grade, Berg score, FMA score, 6-minute walking distance, NIHSS score and MBI score in iTBS group were significantly better than those in sham group) P < 0.05). After treatment, the H/Q in iTBS group was significantly higher thanbefore) P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups) P > 0.05). Stride speed, stride frequency, stride width, single support phase on the affected side and GDI score in iTBS group were significantly improved compared with sham group) P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference in stride length between the two groups after treatment) P > 0.05). The Conclusion Contralesional cerebellar iTBS combined with routine rehabilitation could improve lower limb walking function and daily living ability of stroke patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Neurophysiological technique uses the bioelectrical principle to record the spontaneous or external stimulation-induced electrical activities of the central or peripheral nervous system. Due to the essential difference in the pathophysiological mechanism of functional and organic movement disorders, neurophysiology is of great significance for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the central and peripheral nervous systems. In order to improve the understanding of the pathogenesis of functional movement disorder (FMD) and provide the basis for the accurate diagnosis, this paper reviews the common clinical neurophysiological techniques and their application in FMD.

In view of the problems of the traditional rehabilitation training mode of stroke, such as long treatment cycle, boring training content, high rehabilitation cost and imbalance of doctor-patient ratio, the assisted rehabilitation treatment with virtual reality technology has realistic significance. The number of published literatures on the application of virtual reality in post-stroke rehabilitation in recent ten years has been retrieved, and the feasibility analysis of the model of virtual reality motor rehabilitation training has been carried out. Based on the application progress of virtual reality in motor rehabilitation after stroke at home and abroad, the further development of virtual reality in rehabilitation medicine is prospected.

Post - stroke depression (PSD) is a serious complication affecting the survival and functional recovery of stroke patients. The prevalence rate of PSD is about 30% . PSD happens mostly within one year after stroke, and especially within 3 months after stroke. The main risk factors of PSD were disability, past history of depression, stroke severity, cognitive dysfunction and anxiety symptoms. The treatment principles of PSD include drug treatment, psychological therapy, rehabilitation therapy, physical therapy and others. Especially, rehabilitation therapy can significantly reduce the incidence of PSD and improve the prognosis. Further study on the mechanism of PSD and optimization of PSD rehabilitation therapy can improve PSD prognosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
