Observational Study of Neuroimaging Biomarkers of Severe Upper Limb Impairment After Stroke Open
Within a large cohort of individuals with severe UL impairment, CC microstructure related to motor outcome poststroke. Our findings demonstrate that CST microstructure does relate to UL outcome across the full range of motor impairment but…

Neural Correlates of Proprioception After Stroke Open
Proprioception, one’s sense of limb and body position (position sense) and movement (kinesthesia), is impaired in up to 64% of individuals after stroke. Proprioceptive deficits in the arm result in poor coordination of multiple joints, lea…

Proprioception and motor performance after stroke: An examination of diffusion properties in sensory and motor pathways Open
Proprioceptive and motor impairments commonly occur after stroke. Relationships between corticospinal tract (CST) fractional anisotropy (FA) and motor recovery have been identified. However, the relationship between sensory tract microstru…

Differential Impact of Acute Lesions Versus White Matter Hyperintensities on Stroke Recovery Open
Background Understanding how the size of acute lesions and white matter hyperintensities ( WMH ) impact stroke recovery can improve our ability to predict outcomes and tailor treatments. The aim of this exploratory study was to investigate…

Lesion locations associated with persistent proprioceptive impairment in the upper limbs after stroke Open
Proprioceptive deficits are common after stroke and have been associated with poorer recovery. Relatively little is known about the brain regions beyond primary somatosensory cortex that contribute to the percept of proprioception in human…

Robotic Characterization of Ipsilesional Motor Function in Subacute Stroke Open
Background. Poststroke impairments of the ipsilesional arm are often discussed, but rarely receive focused rehabilitation. Ipsilesional deficits may affect daily function and although many studies have investigated them in chronic stroke, …

Localization of Impaired Kinesthetic Processing Post-stroke Open
Kinesthesia is our sense of limb motion, and allows us to gauge the speed, direction, and amplitude of our movements. Over half of stroke survivors have significant impairments in kinesthesia, which leads to greatly reduced recovery and fu…
