What is the relation between unilateral spatial neglect and verticality perception biases after stroke?

Apr 20, 2017 by in PHYSICAL MEDICINE & REHABILITATION Comments Off on What is the relation between unilateral spatial neglect and verticality perception biases after stroke?

Objective Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) and verticality perception biases are frequently associated after right hemispheric cerebral stroke (Pérennou et al., 2006). These troubles in spatial cognition have also in common…

Modified brain activations in the non-damaged hemisphere during movements of the “supposed to be healthy” upper-limb

Apr 20, 2017 by in PHYSICAL MEDICINE & REHABILITATION Comments Off on Modified brain activations in the non-damaged hemisphere during movements of the “supposed to be healthy” upper-limb

Objective After stroke, the less affected upper-limb shows slight but substantial and longterm motor deficits . Kinematically, this is reflected by an increased segmentation of movements. Here, we aim to…

Visual verticality perception after stroke: A systematic review of methodological approaches and suggestions for standardization

Apr 20, 2017 by in PHYSICAL MEDICINE & REHABILITATION Comments Off on Visual verticality perception after stroke: A systematic review of methodological approaches and suggestions for standardization

Objective Visual vertical (VV) measurements are being increasingly used for routine clinical assessment of spatial cognition, to investigate otolithic vestibular function and identify altered verticality perception as a possible cause…

Predictors of motor outcomes in severe sub-acute stroke patients after upper limb intensive combined (robot-mediated+usual care) training

Apr 20, 2017 by in PHYSICAL MEDICINE & REHABILITATION Comments Off on Predictors of motor outcomes in severe sub-acute stroke patients after upper limb intensive combined (robot-mediated+usual care) training

Objective In stroke patients, motor impairments evaluated during the first few weeks usually predict upper limb motor outcomes after rehabilitation. However, a recent growing literature suggests that severe patients might…
