Methods Randomised sham‐controlled cross‐over study
Participants 17 chronic stroke patients (5 (29%) female; mean age 59 years; 12 (71%) had ischaemic stroke)
Interventions Each participant underwent all of the following conditions
  1. C‐tDCS over M1 of the unaffected hemisphere (dosage not described) plus 10 Hz rTMS over M1 of the affected hemisphere

  2. A‐tDCS over M1 of the unaffected hemisphere (dosage not described) plus 10 Hz rTMS over M1 of the affected hemisphere

  3. Sham tDCS over M1 of the unaffected hemisphere (dosage not described) plus 10 Hz rTMS over M1 of the affected hemisphere

Outcomes Outcome measures
  1. Change of MEP amplitude (cortical excitability)

  2. Sequential motor task (hand motor function)
