Summary

The purpose of the clinical trial is to find a treatment for stroke patients with cognitive impairment, and the main questions it aims to answer are: * \[Search for effective treatments of cognitive impairment after stroke\] * \[explore the relationship between BDNF level and cognitive function\] Participants will receive conventional treatment, tDCS treatment, .And then compare cognitive function and BDNF level

Detailed description

1. To study the therapeutic effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) by evaluating cognitive function and detecting plasma brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). 2. To explore the correlation between plasma BDNF level and cognitive function in patients with PSCI.

Conditions
