Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Synchronized with Motor Task Training for Post-Stroke Rehabilitation

The goal of this clinical trials is to investigate the effectiveness of individualized online repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in enhancing upper limb motor rehabilitation during the subacute and chronic phase of stroke. It will also learn about the safety of individualized online rTMS intervention methods. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does rTMS synchronized with motor training improve motor rehabilitation in patients with the ability to induce motor evoked potentials(MEPs)？ Dose individualized rTMS synchronized with motor training improve motor rehabilitation in patients without the ability to induce MEPs? Researchers will compare online rTMS to offline and sham stimulation in patients with MEPs to see if online rTMS works to alleviate motor dysfunction in preliminary trials. And compare individualized online rTMS to non-individualized online rTMS and sham in patients without MEPs to see if individualized online rTMS works to alleviate motor dysfunction in Randomized, double-blinded, and controlled trials. Participants will: randomized to one group acoording to the MEP condition of each person; receive rTMS treatment for 10 days, with 5 working days per week for a total of two weeks; receive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electroencephalogram (EEG) evaluations before and after the entire treatment; conduct scales and MEP assessment one day before the treatment, as well as one day, one month, and three months after the treatment.
