Abstract

Abstract:

Objective To analyze the research hotspots and frontier trends of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in the field of rehabilitation in the last decade.
Methods The literatures of TMS in the field of rehabilitation from January, 2014 to September, 2024 were searched in the database of Web of Science core collection, and the visual analysis was carried out by using CiteSpace 6.4.R1 software.
Results A total of 1 065 articles were included, showing an increasing trend in annual publication volume. China was the leading country in publication volume, Harvard University was the institution with the largest number of published articles, and Simone Rossi was the most frequently cited author. Keywords with high co-occurrence frequency included stroke, noninvasive brain stimulation, plasticity, cortical excitability, θ burst stimulation and upper limb. Brain-computer interface was the bursting keyword in the past two years.
Conclusion In the past decade, the research interest in TMS in the field of rehabilitation has been on the rise. It focused on the application of multimodal combined therapies, including TMS, to improve the upper limb function and aphasia of stroke patients and to explore the plasticity of brain nerves. Future research should focus on the deep integration of TMS and brain-computer interface technology to realize the individualization and accuracy of TMS treatment.
