    Timeline summary of both patients’ clinical examinations, therapeutic interventions and follow-up. tsDCS: transcutaneous spinal direct current stimulation; (tA0): prior to sham tsDCS; (tA1): prior to cathode tsDCS; (t1): post-sham and (t2): post-cathode for patient A). (tB0): prior to sham tsDCS; (tB1): prior to anode tsDCS; (t3): post-sham and (t4): post-anode for patient B). TMS: transcranial magnetic stimulation; TMS (t0): baseline stimulation; TMS (t1): post-sham; TMS (t2); post-cathode and TMS (t3): post-anode.
