rTMS for Post-Stroke Rehabilitation: Clinical Outcomes from a Single Center, 2014-2025

23 patient charts from a clinic's retrospective review of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) combined with physiotherapy for stroke recovery. The data includes patient age, sex, treatment type, time from stroke to treatment, and clinical improvement metrics, collected between 2014 and 2025. Francois Henri Jacques authored this study, which found 70% of patients showed significant improvement.

Use Cases

• Predicting patient response to rTMS therapy based on time from stroke to treatment.
• Comparing the efficacy of bilateral versus unilateral stimulation protocols for stroke rehabilitation.
• Analyzing demographic factors like age and sex in relation to post-stroke treatment outcomes.

Strengths

• Includes specific clinical metrics such as a 2.8 times higher likelihood of improvement with bilateral stimulation.
• Provides a defined time range for data collection from 2014 to 2025.
• Reports key statistical results like a p-value of 0.027 for the time-to-treatment difference between groups.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is small at 674.2 KB, indicating a limited scope of 23 patient records.
