Objective To explore the effects and mechanism of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) applied to the right Broca's homologue of stroke patients with non-fluent aphasia.Methods One stroke patient with non-fluent aphasia received rTMS at 1 Hz and another received the same treatment at 10 Hz.The western aphasia battery (WAB) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) were used to evaluate their language function before and after the intervention.Results After treatment,language function in both patients had improved significantly.The aphasia quotient (AQ) score of patient 1 had improved from 37.2 to 66.6,and the AQ score of patient 2 had improved from 36.2 to 60.8.Before treatment,patient 1's activated brain areas during a vocabulary reading task were the left anterior central gyrus and the left gyrus frontalis medius.After the 1 Hz rTMS treatment the activated brain areas were the left medial surface of the lobus frontalis,the left gyrus frontalis inferior,the left prefrontal area,the left preinsula,the left lobulus parietalis inferior,and the left middle/inferior temporal gyrus.Before the 10 Hz rTMS treatment,patient 2's activated brain areas with the same vocabulary reading task were the bilateral medial surface of the temporal lobe,and the bilateral anterior central gyrus.After treatment the bilateral medial surface gyrus,the frontalis medius and lobus frontalis,the right gyrus frontalis inferior,the left prefrontal area,the bilateral lobulus parietalis superior,and the right superior/middle temporal gyrus were activated.Conclusion rTMS can significantly improve language function in stroke patients with non-fluent aphasia.Patients with smaller lesions in the left hemisphere language area can achieve hemisphere function restructuring.Larger lesions in the left hemisphere language area will probably yield bilateral restructuring in both hemispheres.

Objective To explore the effect of intensity of 1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to right Broca's ho-mologue on nonfluent aphasia after stroke. Methods 40 inpatients were equally divided into low-intensity group and high-intensity group, who received rTMS (1 Hz for 10 minutes) once a day and twice a day respectively for 10 days. They were assessed with Western Aphasia Battery (WAB) before and after intervention, and 2 months after intervention. Results The scores of content and fluency, auditory compre-hension, naming, repetition and AQ improved more in the high-intensity group than in the low-intensity group (P<0.01). It maintained more for 2 months in the scores of content and fluency, repetition and AQ (P<0.05). Conclusion High-intensity rTMS can promote the improve-ment of speech in patients with nonfluent aphasia after stroke that remains for a long term.

Objective To explore the effect of low frequency repetitive transranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on unilateral spatial neglect (USN). Methods 40 stroke patients with USN were divided into treatment group (n=20) and control group (n=20). Patients in the treatment group were treated with low frequency rTMS for 2 weeks. The USN degree of these groups were evaluated before and after the treatment. Results There was no significant difference of USN degree between these groups before the treatment (P>0.05); Compared with the control group, the treatment group improved significantly after the treatment (P<0.05). The USN degree of patients in the treatment group decreased significantly after the treatment (P<0.05), while patients in the controlled group had no difference (P>0.05). Conclusion USN induced by stroke could be improved obviously through low frequency rTMS.
