In the early postacute stroke phase, enhancement of ipsilesional motor cortex excitability by means of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) seems to be a well tolerated and effective strategy to promote motor recovery. In contrast, recent studies suggest that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the early poststroke phase does not facilitate motor recovery. In the chronic phase, however, both rTMS and tDCS have been shown to be beneficial when applied over several days combined with training. Interestingly, bihemispheric stimulation strategies (ipsilesional activation and contralesional suppression) seem to constitute effective protocols, especially when using rTMS.Summary: Noninvasive brain stimulation seems to support motor recovery. However, to date randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that are sufficiently powered are lacking. Data suggest that the most promising protocols should now be tested in RCTs with sufficiently large samples taking into account the clinical heterogeneity of stroke. 000825216 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-572$$a572 - (Dys-)function and Plasticity (POF3-572)$$cPOF3-572$$fPOF III$$x0 000825216 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000825216 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)131720$$aFink, Gereon R.$$b1$$ufzj 000825216 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2026967-5$$a10.1097/WCO.0000000000000395$$gVol. 29, no. 6, p. 714 - 720$$n6$$p714 - 720$$tCurrent opinion in neurology$$v29$$x1350-7540$$y2016 000825216 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:825216$$pVDB 000825216 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)161406$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b0$$kFZJ 000825216 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)131720$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b1$$kFZJ 000825216 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-572$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-570$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-500$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bKey Technologies$$lDecoding the Human Brain$$v(Dys-)function and Plasticity$$x0 000825216 9141_ $$y2016 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1050$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bBIOSIS Previews 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bCURR OPIN NEUROL : 2015 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0110$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1120$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bBIOSIS Reviews Reports And Meetings 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9900$$2StatID$$aIF < 5 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0550$$2StatID$$aNo Authors Fulltext 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0410$$2StatID$$aAllianz-Lizenz 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0310$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bNCBI Molecular Biology Database 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1110$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Clinical Medicine 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0420$$2StatID$$aNationallizenz 000825216 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000825216 920__ $$lyes 000825216 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)INM-3-20090406$$kINM-3$$lKognitive Neurowissenschaften$$x0 000825216 980__ $$ajournal 000825216 980__ $$aVDB 000825216 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000825216 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)INM-3-20090406
