Objective: To systematically review and summarize the current available literature on
prognostic variables relating to upper limb recovery following stroke. To identify which, if any …

Background. There is growing interest to establish recovery biomarkers, especially
neurological biomarkers, in order to develop new therapies and prediction models for the …

Stroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Motor impairments occur in most of the
patients with stroke in the acute phase and contribute substantially to disability. Diffusion …

OBJECTIVE: Methods were invented that made it possible to image peripheral nerves in the
body and to image neural tracts in the brain. The history, physical basis, and dyadic tensor …

In this study, we examined injury progression after intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) induced
by collagenase in mice using a preclinical 11.7 Tesla MRI system. On T2-weighted MRI …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based tractography has been used to demonstrate
functionally relevant differences in white matter pathway status after stroke. However, it is …

Background. Prognosis of long-term motor outcome of acute stroke patients with severe
motor impairment is difficult to determine. Objective. Our primary goal was to evaluate the …

Background and Purpose: Stroke is the leading cause of long term disability in the United
States. Most poststroke individuals experience difficulty in moving the contralesional limbs to …

MIS is an appealing treatment modality for supratentorial ICH and with careful patient
selection and technologic advances has the potential to improve neurologic outcomes and …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Early evaluation of the pyramidal tract is a prerequisite in
patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in order to decide the optimal treatment or to …
