Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Combined With Physiotherapy in Rehabilitation of Poststroke Hemiparesis: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study
TL;DR: The findings did not suggest that rTMS suppression of the contralesional motor cortex augments the effect of early neurorehabilitation for upper limb hemiparesis, and larger trials that stratify subjects based on residual motor function or physiological measures of excitation and inhibition may identify responders in the future.

TL;DR: Inhibitory rTMS applied to the right frontal language homologue is not effective for all poststroke aphasia patients, although it might benefit selected patients.

TL;DR: Assessment of allelic and genotypic distribution of BDNF-196 G>A and -270 C>T polymorphisms in patients with hand paresis and aphasia found that after the first 6 h of rTMS-supported rehabilitation, BDNF concentration was lower among rT MS patients than placebo-treated patients.

[Transcranial magnetic stimulation in the therapy of selected post-stroke cognitive deficits: aphasia and visuospatial hemineglect].
TL;DR: This review cites studies indicating that sessions of rTMS could improve some of the cognitive symptoms after stroke and a growing number of studies consider this method as a potential therapeutic technique in neurological disorders.

Effect of Low-Frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Naming Abilities in Early-Stroke Aphasic Patients: A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind Sham-Controlled Study
TL;DR: Inhibitory rTMS of the unaffected right inferior frontal gyrus area in combination with speech and language therapy cannot be assumed as an effective method for all poststroke aphasia patients, but the treatment seems to be beneficial for patients with frontal language area damage.
