Nevertheless, the choice of stimulation methods diverges, underpinned by different recovery theories. Among the distinct stimulation approaches currently in use, which one yields the most optimal therapeutic outcomes remains unexplored.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To evaluate the rehabilitation efficacy of different rTMS methods on the swallowing function of PSD patients through network meta\u2010analysis and traditional meta\u2010analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We searched eight databases to identify articles on rTMS treatment for PSD from inception to May 5, 2024, and screened them using EndNote 20.0. The quality of articles was evaluated by Cochrane risk bias assessment criteria, and Stata 17.0 was adopted for meta\u2010analysis. Standardised swallowing assessment (SSA), penetration aspiration scale (PAS), and dysphagia outcome and severity scale (DOSS) served as the outcome measures of the study.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 27 articles involving 1694 patients were selected. The studies encompassed five types of stimulation methods: high\u2010frequency rTMS on the ipsilateral hemisphere (iHF\u2010rTMS), low\u2010frequency rTMS on the contralateral hemisphere (cLF\u2010rTMS), high\u2010frequency rTMS on the contralateral hemisphere (cHF\u2010rTMS), high\u2010frequency rTMS on the bilateral hemispheres (biHF\u2010rTMS), and iHF\u2010rTMS + cLF\u2010rTMS (iHF\u2010cLF\u2010rTMS). Compared with placebo, iHF\u2010cLF\u2010rTMS [mean difference (MD)\u2009=\u2009\u221211.34, 95% confidence interval (CI): \u221214.57 to \u22128.12], biHF\u2010rTMS (MD\u2009=\u2009\u22126.52, 95% CI: \u22128.50 to \u22124.55), cHF\u2010rTMS (MD\u2009=\u2009\u22122.84, 95% CI: \u22124.37 to \u22121.31), and iHF\u2010rTMS (MD\u2009=\u2009\u22121.89, 95% CI: \u22122.82 to \u22120.96) showed significantly better effects on improving SSA of patients with PSD. According to traditional meta\u2010analysis, for patients with post\u2010stroke time &lt;\u20091\u2009month, iHF\u2010rTMS (MD\u2009=\u2009\u22120.558, 95% CI: \u22120.966 to \u22120.150) demonstrated a superior therapeutic outcome of SSA, while for those with post\u2010stroke time \u2265\u20091\u2009month, SSA was more significantly improved in cHF\u2010rTMS (MD\u2009=\u2009\u22120.760, 95% CI: \u22121.193 to \u22120.327) and iHF\u2010rTMS (MD\u2009=\u2009\u22120.428, 95% CI: \u22120.665 to \u22120.129) groups, when compared with placebo.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Bilateral stimulation protocols (biHF\u2010rTMS and iHF\u2010cLF\u2010rTMS) confer superior efficacy over unilateral approaches. Early application of iHF\u2010rTMS shows advantages. However, methodological limitations, including heterogeneity in stimulation parameters, small sample sizes in subgroup analyses, and insufficient long\u2010term follow\u2010up, warrant cautious interpretation. Future high\u2010powered RCTs with standardised protocols are imperative to optimise rTMS\u2010based precision rehabilitation.<\/jats:p>\n
