Brain plasticity after stroke remains poorly understood. Patients may improve spontaneously
within the first 3 months and then more slowly in the coming year. The first days, decreased …

Connections between neurons are affected within 3 min of stroke onset by massive ischemic
depolarization and then delayed cell death. Some connections can recover with prompt …

An account of the neurobiology of motor recovery in the arm and hand after stroke by two
experts in the field. Stroke is a leading cause of disability in adults and recovery is often …

Following stroke, the brain undergoes various stages of recovery where the central nervous
system can reorganize neural circuitry (neuroplasticity) both spontaneously and with the aid …

The purpose of this study was to develop a high-resolution sensorimotor area tract template
(SMATT) which segments corticofugal tracts based on 6 cortical regions in primary motor …

Stroke is the leading cause of disability among adults. Motor deficit is the most common
impairment after stroke. Especially, deficits in fine motor skills impair numerous activities of …

Traditional rehabilitation techniques present limitations and the majority of patients show
poor 1-year post-stroke recovery. Thus, Neurofeedback (NF) or Brain-Computer-Interface …

Recent advancements in stem cell biology and neuromodulation have ushered in a battery
of new neurorestorative therapies for ischemic stroke. While the understanding of stroke …

Activity changes in the ipsi-and contralesional parietal cortex and abnormal
interhemispheric connectivity between these regions are commonly observed after stroke …

Background and Objectives It is difficult to predict poststroke outcome for individuals with
severe motor impairment because both clinical tests and corticospinal tract (CST) …
