3 Fig 2 Graphic display of active tDCS and sham tDCS group after adjustment for age, duration, sex, location, and diagnosis. A pretty identifiable trend: no significant difference at admission, presenting significant difference after treatment, and getting more and more significant after follow-up for clinical assessments of MAS, FMA, and BI. Error bar: The confidence interval is 95%. Abbreviations: BI, Barthel Index; FMA, Fugl-Meyer Assessment.
