Effect of intermittent theta burst stimulation combined with acoustic startle priming motor training on upper limb motor function and neural plasticity in stroke individuals: study protocol for a randomised controlled proof-of-concept trial

Introduction Stroke is a major cause of acquired disability globally, yet the neural mechanisms driving motor recovery post-stroke remain elusive. Recent research has underscored the growing significance of subcortical pathways in neural plasticity and motor control. Among these, the cortico-reticul...
