A review of transcranial magnetic stimulation and multimodal neuroimaging to characterize post-stroke neuroplasticity
Following stroke, the brain undergoes various stages of recovery where the central nervous
system can reorganize neural circuitry (neuroplasticity) both spontaneously and with the aid …

Inhibition versus facilitation of contralesional motor cortices in stroke: deriving a model to tailor brain stimulation
V Sankarasubramanian, AG Machado… - Clinical …, 2017 - Elsevier
Objective The standard approach to brain stimulation in stroke is based on the premise that
ipsilesional M1 (iM1) is important for motor function of the paretic upper limb, while …

Stratifying chronic stroke patients based on the influence of contralesional motor cortices: an inter-hemispheric inhibition study
Objective A recent “bimodal-balance recovery” model suggests that contralesional influence
varies based on the amount of ipsilesional reserve: inhibitory when there is a large reserve …

The potential dual role of transcallosal inhibition in post-stroke motor recovery
Up to now, the mechanism of motor impairment and recovery after stroke has been thought
to be based on the interhemispheric competition model. According to this model, which …

Longitudinal structural and functional differences between proportional and poor motor recovery after stroke
Background. Evolution of motor function during the first months after stroke is stereotypically
bifurcated, consisting of either recovery to about 70% of maximum possible improvement …
