UNASSIGNED:平衡功能的恢复是中风康复治疗的关键部分。小脑被认为是涉及平衡和运动控制的关键结构。小脑疣在整合视觉中起着重要作用,本体感受,和感觉皮肤输入,并且可以是用于调节与平衡相关的运动网络的候选刺激目标。然而,有证据表明小脑Vermis的间歇性theta爆发刺激(iTBS)可以促进中风后平衡功能的恢复仍然不足。因此,本研究旨在探讨小脑疣iTBS治疗脑卒中患者平衡功能的疗效。
未经授权:本次前瞻性研究将招募40名中风患者,随机化,假对照试验。参与者将以1:1的比例随机分配,以接受15次小脑疣iTBS(600脉冲)或假刺激。此外,干预后进行常规康复治疗.主要结果是伯格平衡量表,次要结局是下肢Fugl-Meyer评估和改良Barthel指数.上述结果将在干预前和每周结束时进行评估。将采集iTBS静息状态前和后功能磁共振成像(rs-fMRI),以及区域同质性,将计算和分析低频波动和功能连通性的分数振幅。
UNASSIGNED:该方案有望成为改善中风患者平衡功能的潜在方法。如果干预后患者的预后有所改善,这项研究将为改善平衡功能提供新的见解。
UNASSIGNED:本研究已获得无锡市精神卫生中心(无锡同仁市康复医院)医学研究伦理委员会的批准。结果将通过(开放获取)同行评审的出版物传播,科学家的网络,专业人士,和公众,并在会议上介绍。

UNASSIGNED: The recovery of balance function is a critical segment in the rehabilitation treatment of stroke. The cerebellum is considered as the key structure involved in balance and motor control. The cerebellar vermis plays an important role in integrating vision, proprioception, and sensory skin input and may be a candidate stimulation target for regulating the motor network related with balance. However, evidence that the intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) of cerebellar vermis can promote the recovery of balance function after stroke remains insufficient. Therefore, this
study aims to explore the efficacy of the cerebellar vermis iTBS for the treatment of balance function in patients with stroke.
UNASSIGNED: Forty patients with stroke will be recruited in this prospective, randomized, sham-controlled
trial. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 15 sessions of cerebellar vermis iTBS (600 pulses) or sham stimulation. Additionally, a routine rehabilitation therapy follows the intervention. The primary outcome is the Berg Balance Scale, and the secondary outcomes are the Fugl-Meyer assessment of the lower extremity and modified Barthel index. The above outcomes will be assessed before intervention and at the end of each week. Pre- and post-iTBS resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) will be acquired, and the regional homogeneity, fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation and functional connectivity will be calculated and analyzed.
UNASSIGNED: This protocol holds promise as a potential method to improve balance function in patients with stroke. If the outcomes of patients improve after the intervention, the
study will provide new insights into improving balance function.
UNASSIGNED: This
study has been approved by the Medical Research Ethics Committee of Wuxi Mental Health Center (Wuxi Tongren Rehabilitation Hospital). Results will be disseminated through (open-access) peer-reviewed publications, networks of scientists, professionals, and the public and presented at conferences.
