Figure 1 (A, B) rTMS and hUCB-MSCs transplantation improve rat behavior. Rats subjected to spinal cord injury (SCI) were treated with rTMS and hUCB-MSCs. Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan (BBB) scores were measured after 1 day and 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks, and motor evoked potentials (MEPs) were measured after 8 weeks. * p<0.05 and ** p<0.01 compared with rats subjected to SCI alone; # p<0.05 compared with rTMS.
