Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Aged 18 and 75 years; 2. Right-handed; 3. Patients who meet the diagnostic criteria for vascular cognitive impairment in the ''Consensus Research Guidelines for the Classification of Vascular Cognitive Impairment in Cognitive Function'' and ''Chinese Guidelines for Vascular Cognitive Impairment 2019'' are mainly summarized as follows: (1) At least one cognitive impairment (MoCA<=24) confirmed by clinical and neuropsychological assessment, and the presence or absence of activities of daily living impairments (IADLs); (2) Imaging evidence of stroke confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); (3) Cognitive impairment should be independent of motor/sensory sequelae of vascular events, and there should be a clear temporal relationship between vascular events and the onset of cognitive impairment (within 6 months and for at least 3 months); 4. No severe aphasia, able to complete the cognitive test; 5. Normal cognitive function before stroke; 6. Voluntarily participate and sign the informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Drug/alcohol abuse/dependence within the last 3 months after initial detection of injury. 2. Contraindications to rTMS treatment, such as epilepsy patients, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or the use of metal or electrical implantable devices (eg deep brain stimulators, ventriculoperitoneal shunts, aneurysm clips, pacemakers, cochlea, surgical staples on the scalp). 3. MRI contraindications (such as metal implants or claustrophobia). 4. Participate in pharmacological or non-pharmacological treatment research at the same time.
