Interventions

Low frequency group:rTMS treatment with stimulation intensity of 120% rMT and frequency of 1Hz, acting on the motor cortex of the contralateral side, stimulation for 5 seconds, rest for 45 seconds, re
High frequency group:rTMS treatment with stimulation intensity of 120% RMT and frequency of 10 Hz, acting on the motor cortex of the affected side, continuous stimulation for 20 minutes, a total of 12
coupling group:First intervene in low-frequency stimulation for 2 weeks, and then intervene in high-frequency stimulation for 2 weeks. The stimulation program is the same as above, once/day, 5 times/w

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Stroke hemiplegia subjects inclusion criteria: 1.Aged 18-75 years old; 2.Meet the diagnostic criteria of stroke, and confirmed by CT or MRI as unilateral subcortical infarction or hemorrhage; 3.Patients with first onset or past onset without sequelae; 4.For patients in subacute stage, 3 months = grade II on the affected side; 6.The vital signs are stable; 7.Those who voluntarily participate in the research and can cooperate with the measurement; 8.Understand and sign the informed consent. Inclusion criteria for healthy subjects: 1.Age, gender and post-stroke hemiplegia subjects are matched, and the age difference can be ±5 years; 2.The vital signs are stable; 3.There is no upper limb dysfunction; 4.No history of abnormal medical history such as related head trauma, drug abuse and neuropsychiatric diseases; 5.Those who voluntarily participate in the research and can cooperate with the measurement; 6.Understand and sign the informed consent.

Exclusion criteria
