**6. Future directions**

Previous studies have shown that the recovery of motor function after stroke is acutely related to the functional replacement of damaged neuronal circuits and the interhemispheric imbalance model. Therefore, it is important to promote neuroplasticity related to motor function recovery in rehabilitation. In addition to the use of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines, rehabilitation strategies that take into account the functional characteristics of the brain may maximize the recovery of motor function in stroke patients. In the future, it is expected that improved intervention strategies will be widely applied in the clinical setting by accumulating knowledge about the pathology of relevant cases and brain areas.
