Transcutaneous spinal stimulation combined with a long opponent-pronation orthosis (FAST-HAND) for upper extremity motor function in patients with chronic stroke: A randomized-controlled trial
A single-blind, randomized controlled trial evaluated functional assistive stimulation for the hand (FAST-HAND), a novel intervention combining transcutaneous spinal stimulation with a long opponent-pronation orthosis in patients with chronic stroke. Participants receiving FAST-HAND demonstrated modest but significant improvements in upper limb motor function following four weeks of task-oriented rehabilitation.
These findings highlight the potential of combining neuromodulation and assistive technologies to enhance upper extremity recovery after stroke.

Non-invasive brain stimulation research in South Korea: Current trends, challenges, and future directions
A review highlighted the growing body of research on non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) in South Korea, spanning stroke, parkinsonism, traumatic brain injury, dysphagia, and aphasia.
Across 88 studies, both repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) demonstrated promising outcomes in motor, cognitive, swallowing, and language rehabilitation.
Emerging directions include individualised and technology-assisted approaches, including home-based tDCS and rTMS guided by functional near-infrared spectroscopy.
