Background: Consequences of stroke frequently comprise reduced movement ability of the
upper extremity (UE) and subsequent long-term disability. Clinical scales are used to …

Stroke is the leading cause of disability in the adult worldwide. The most common
neurological impairment following stroke is weakness or loss of sensibility of the extremities …

Background. Three-dimensional kinematic analysis provides quantitative and qualitative
assessment of upper-limb motion and is used as an outcome measure to evaluate impaired …

In terms of integration of the paretic upper extremity in activities of daily living (ADLs),
outcome is poor after stroke. Furthermore, amount of real-world arm use appears only …

Objective To establish the time course of recovery regarding smoothness of upper limb
movements in the first 6 months poststroke. Design Cohort study with 3-dimensional …

Background. Individuals with chronic stroke often have long-lasting upper extremity
impairments that impede function during activities of daily living. Rehabilitation robotics have …

Background. An increasing number of studies have indicated that the ipsilesional arm may
be impaired after stroke. There is, however, a lack of knowledge whether ipsilesional deficits …

Background This study aimed to evaluate the kinematic movement patterns during a reach-
and-grasp task in post-stroke patients according to the upper extremity impairment severity …

Background. Kinematic analysis is a powerful method for an objective assessment of
movements and is increasingly used as an outcome measure after stroke. Little is known …

Background Dexterous hand function is crucial for completing activities of daily living
(ADLs), which typically require precise hand-object interactions. Kinematic analyses of hand …
