Supplementary file 1_The effect of non-invasive brain stimulation combined with motor imag

A systematic review and meta-analysis of 21 randomized controlled trials from 16 articles, evaluating the effect of non-invasive brain stimulation combined with motor imagery on upper limb motor function in stroke patients. The dataset, authored by Juhao Hou, was last updated on June 3, 2026, and is available as a 39.8 KB document. The analysis includes outcome measures for motor function, functional activity, and activities of daily living.

Use Cases

• Assessing the efficacy of combined NIBS and MI interventions based on the reported meta-analysis results.
• Identifying significant moderators of treatment effect based on subgroup analyses mentioned in the description.
• Informing the design of future clinical trials based on the review's conclusions and identified research gaps.

Strengths

• Includes results from 21 studies across 16 articles, providing a synthesized evidence base.
• Reports specific statistical outcomes, including weighted mean differences and standardized mean deviations with 95% confidence intervals.
• Has a clear systematic review registration number (CRD420251167952) in PROSPERO.

Limitations

• The dataset is a 39.8 KB document, indicating a very limited scope focused on review text rather than raw clinical data.
• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; the document's internal data structure must be inspected after download.
• The description does not specify the geographic or demographic coverage of the included studies, which may limit generalizability.
