    Synchronous Taiji Yunshou (TY) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) enhance neuroplasticity in stroke patients.

  • 2

    The study utilized functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to assess cortical activation and hemodynamic brain networks.

  • 3

    Synchronous TY + tDCS showed superior activation in the left and right prefrontal cortex compared to tDCS alone.

  • 4

    Each intervention caused distinct network reorganizations, with TY forming motor-execution communities and tDCS creating bipartite divisions.

  • 5

    Findings support integrated rehabilitation strategies, highlighting the left sensorimotor cortex as crucial for stroke recovery.
