Does a second course of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation enhance neuroplasticity and motor function in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy? Results of a prospective study

Ivan Ivanov
BackgroundRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has emerged as a promising neuromodulation technique for enhancing motor recovery in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. However, long-term effects of repeated rTMS courses remain unclear, as existing studies have focused primarily on short-term outcomes following a single treatment course, with limited data on whether benefits decline, persist, or can be restored by a second course.ObjectiveTo investigate the immediate and susta
