Brief summary

If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare \[insert groups\] to see if \[insert effects\] The purpose of the clinical trial is to find a treatment for stroke patients with cognitive impairment, and the main questions it aims to answer are: * \[Search for effective treatments of cognitive impairment after stroke\] * \[Explore brain network features with functional near-infrared spectroscopy\] Participants will receive conventional treatment, tDCS treatment, or rTMS treatment, or tDCS-rTMS treatment. And then compare cognitive function and brain function.
