Background Physical therapy (PT) is one of the key disciplines in interdisciplinary stroke
rehabilitation. The aim of this systematic review was to provide an update of the evidence for …

Lack of neural innervation due to neurological damage renders muscle unable to produce
force. Use of electrical stimulation is a medium in which investigators have tried to find a way …

Trial objective To verify whether conventional rehabilitation combined with specific virtual
reality is more effective than conventional therapy alone in restoring hand motor function …

This study, conducted in a group of nine chronic patients with right-side hemiparesis after
stroke, investigated the effects of a robotic-assisted rehabilitation training with an upper limb …

Objective: This review determines the effects of virtual reality interventions for stroke subjects
based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) …

Background After a stroke, patients show significant modifications of neural control of
movement, such as abnormal muscle co-activation, and reduced selectivity and modulation …

Background: External auditory stimuli have been widely used for recovering arm function
post-stroke. Rhythmic and real-time auditory stimuli have been reported to enhance motor …

Background: Better upper limb recovery after stroke could be achieved through tailoring
rehabilitation interventions directly at movement deficits. Aim: To identify potential; targets for …

Background. The neurophysiological mechanisms underlying improved upper-extremity
motor skills have been partially investigated in patients with good motor recovery but are …

The concept of postural synergy is recently being widely applied to the mechanical design of
prosthesis. However, there are few research literatures on the application of postural …
