Stroke remains a leading cause of adult disability. Some degree of spontaneous behavioral
recovery is usually seen in the weeks after stroke onset. Variability in recovery is substantial …

Over the past two decades, several functional neuroimaging experiments demonstrated
changes in neural activity in stroke patients with motor deficits. Conclusions from single …

Objective Motor imagery (MI) is assumed to enhance poststroke motor recovery, yet its
benefits are debatable. Brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) can provide instantaneous and …

ContextReorganization in central motor networks occurs during early recovery from
hemiparetic stroke. In chronic stroke survivors, specific rehabilitation therapy can improve …

Clinical recovery after stroke can be significant and has been attributed to plastic
reorganization and recruitment of novel areas previously not engaged in a given task. As …

Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability. Systemic delivery of candidate neural repair
therapies is limited by the blood–brain barrier and off-target effects. We tested a …

Objective This study was undertaken to better understand the high variability in response
seen when treating human subjects with restorative therapies poststroke. Preclinical studies …

Functional MRI (fMRI) has had a major impact in cognitive neuroscience. fMRI now has a
small but growing role in clinical neuroimaging, with initial applications to neurosurgical …

Abstract Objectives To define Fugl-Meyer Assessment of the Upper Extremity (FMA-UE)
cutoff scores that demarcate 1 level of upper extremity (UE) impairment from another, and …

There are varying degrees of spontaneous improvement in arm paresis over the first 6
months after stroke. The degree of improvement at 6 months is best predicted by the motor …
