Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Research on transcranial magnetic stimulation for stroke rehabilitation: a visual analysis based on CiteSpace

 


Useless! All this research on TMS and no one has enough brains to write a protocol of its' use! WHEN WILL WE GET COMPETENT PERSONS IN THE STROKE REHAB FIELD? Probably only after most of these people become the 1 in 4 per WHO that has a stroke! And then it will be too late!

Abstract

Objective

This study aimed to analyze recent research and emerging trends in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for stroke rehabilitation.

Methods

We employed bibliometric methods to retrieve relevant Chinese and English literature on TMS for stroke rehabilitation from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) respectively, including publications up to April 10, 2025. CiteSpace 6.4.R1 was utilized to generate knowledge maps, focusing on authors, institutions, countries, and keywords.

Results

We identified 1301 publications since the inception of the database through April 10, 2025, including 797 articles in Chinese and 504 articles in English. The number of articles available in both languages increased over time. Fudan University and University of Manchester were the institutions with the most outputs. Co-occurrence and clustering keyword analyses revealed similarities between Chinese and English terms, with key research areas include the role of TMS in motor cortex areas, post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI), and dysphagia, and TMS has been integrated with other therapeutic approaches for stroke patients.

Conclusion

TMS, a noninvasive brain stimulation technique, has been applied to improve stroke patients’ functional outcomes and daily living skills. Future investigations should integrate TMS with cutting-edge technologies including artificial intelligence and brain‒computer interfaces to uncover its full potential in restoring neural function in stroke survivors.
