Sponsor's own description
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS), leading to progressive motor dysfunction and balance deficits. Objective: To investigate the impact of cerebellar rTMS in improving postural control, balance performance and functional ambulation in individuals with MS. Forty patients were randomly assigned to receive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the cerebellum to improve motor function and balance in 40 MS patients. Outcome measures, including the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), static posturography (COP measures), the International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (ICARS), and the 10-Meter Walk Test (10MWT), were assessed before and after intervention.
