Stroke instigates a dynamic process of repair and remodelling of remaining neural circuits,
and this process is shaped by behavioural experiences. The onset of motor disability …

Approximately one-third of patients with stroke exhibit persistent disability after the initial
cerebrovascular episode, with motor impairments accounting for most poststroke disability …

Functional neuroimaging and related neuroimaging techniques are becoming important
tools for rehabilitation research. Functional neuroimaging techniques can be used to …

Background: Intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) creates a state with increased
excitability that permits treatment modalities to induce neuroplasticity and motor learning …

The brain is a self-organizing system which displays self-similarities at different spatial and
temporal scales. Thus, the complexity of its dynamics, associated to efficient processing and …

Background Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is commonly used to measure the
effects of stroke on corticomotor excitability, intracortical function, and interhemispheric …

Background and objective: Prediction of poststroke recovery can be expressed by
prognostic biomarkers that are related to the pathophysiology of stroke at the cellular and …

The reliability of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) measures in healthy older adults
and stroke patients has been insufficiently characterized. We determined whether common …

Background and Purpose—Recovery from stroke is hypothesized to involve the
reorganization of surviving cortical areas. To study the functional organization of …

Background In preclinical models, behavioral training early after stroke produces larger
gains compared with delayed training. The effects are thought to be mediated by increased …
