Background Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is able to detect, localize and
quantify subtle brain white matter abnormalities that may not be visible on conventional …

Introduction: Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) improves upper limb (UL) motor
execution in unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP). As these children also show motor planning …

INTRODUCTION Cerebral palsy (CP) is the predominant cause of children disability. It is
characterized by motor, sensory, and postural deficits due to a non-progressive injury to the …

Background Accurate visual information is needed to guide and perform efficient movements
in daily life. Aims To investigate the relation between visual functions, functional vision, and …

This study explored the role of lesion timing (periventricular white matter versus cortical and
deep grey matter lesions) and type of corticospinal tract (CST) wiring pattern (contralateral …

Background In children with unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP), bimanual assessments mostly
focus on qualitative assessments of the impaired upper limb during bimanual tasks, which …

Aim We explored the psychometric properties of the recently developed Tyneside Pegboard
Test (TPT) for unimanual and bimanual dexterity in children with unilateral cerebral palsy …

Background Besides motor impairments, up to 90% of the children and adolescents with
unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP) present with somatosensory impairments in the upper limb …

Objective The objective was to investigate whether muscle strength in the nonaffected and
affected upper extremities (UEs) in children (7–12 years) with unilateral spastic cerebral …

In children with unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP), the presence of sensorimotor impairments
compromises active involvement of the hand in daily life, impeding self-care independence …
