Background: The clinical outcome of patients suffering from stroke is dependent on multiple
factors. The features of the lesion itself play an important role but clinical recovery is …

Motor neuron diseases encompass a divergent group of conditions with considerable
differences in clinical manifestations, survival, and genetic vulnerability. One of the key …

Over the last two decades, developments of human brain stroke imaging have raised
several questions about the place of new MRI biomarkers in the acute management of …

Objective To elucidate the timeframe and spatial patterns of cortical reorganization after
different stroke-induced basal ganglia lesions, we measured cortical thickness at 5 time …

Cortical atrophy as demonstrated by measurement of cortical thickness (CT) is a hallmark of
various neurodegenerative diseases. In the wake of an acute ischemic stroke, brain …

Stroke often involves primary motor cortex (M1) and its corticospinal projections (CST). As
hand function is critically dependent on these structures, its recovery is often incomplete …

There is considerable controversy about the causes of cognitive decline after stroke, with
evidence for both the absence and coexistence of Alzheimer pathology. A reduction in …

Purpose: Rehabilitation interventions need to be optimized to maximize therapeutic effects
and minimize stroke-related disability. However, a comprehensive understanding of the …

Ischemic stroke leads to excitability changes of the motor network as probed by means of
transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). There is still limited data that shows to what extent …
