Stroke is one of the leading causes for disability worldwide. Motor function deficits due to
stroke affect the patients' mobility, their limitation in daily life activities, their participation in …

A group of European experts was commissioned to establish guidelines on the therapeutic
use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) from evidence published up until …

Purpose This paper reviews 10 principles of experience-dependent neural plasticity and
considerations in applying them to the damaged brain. Method Neuroscience research …

Background Improving upper limb function is a core element of stroke rehabilitation needed
to maximise patient outcomes and reduce disability. Evidence about effects of individual …

Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques can be used to monitor and modulate the
excitability of intracortical neuronal circuits. Long periods of cortical stimulation can produce …

Objective Chronic stroke patients with severe hand weakness respond poorly to
rehabilitation efforts. Here, we evaluated efficacy of daily brain–machine interface (BMI) …

Neurorehabilitation for stroke is important for upper limb motor recovery. Conventional
rehabilitation such as occupational therapy has been used, but novel technologies are …

There has been an explosion of research using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)
for investigating and modulating human cognitive and motor function in healthy populations …

Determining whether a person with stroke has reached their full potential for recovery is
difficult. While techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and MRI have …

In neurology, as in all branches of medicine, symptoms of disease and the resulting burden
of illness and disability are not simply the consequence of the injury, inflammation or …
