| Abstract | It has been recently demonstrated high frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (HF-rTMS) can improve motor function after stroke. However, there is no study that tested the synergetic effects of physical therapy to HF-rTMS in clinical settings. We therefore investigated the effect of physical healthy exercise (PHE) on paretic arm combined with HF-rTMS in stroke patients. All patients underwent HF-rTMS on contralesional hemisphere for 15 minutes and PHE on paretic arm. The cortical excitability by the amplitude and latency of motor evoked potential (MEP) were measured. We also evaluated arm function using Box and Block, arm reach, 9-hole pegboard, and grip force tests. We found for the first time significant differences of MEP between pre- and post-intervention. HF-rTMS with PHE had a tendency to induce a decrease in MEP amplitude on the nonparetic hand whereas it led to an increment in MEP amplitude in the paretic hand. In particular, the Box and Block, power grip, and arm reach tests showed improvement through every session. Furthermore, motor function and MEP were correlated especially on paretic side. These results indicate PHE with HF-rTMS partially improves arm function after stroke which may support additional effect to rehabilitation in stroke patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
