TL;DR: A novel EEG task involving motor imagery to detect command-following--a universally accepted clinical indicator of awareness--in the absence of overt behaviour is developed and could allow the widespread use of this bedside technique for the rediagnosis of patients who behaviourally seem to be entirely vegetative, but who might have residual cognitive function and conscious awareness.

TL;DR: Cerebral PET could be used to complement bedside examinations and predict long-term recovery of patients with unresponsive wakefulness syndrome and active fMRI might also be useful for differential diagnosis, but seems to be less accurate.

TL;DR: This review aims to define spasticity, describe hypotheses explaining its development after a stroke, give an overview of related neuroimaging studies as well as a description of the most common scales used to quantify the degree of spasticsity, and explore which treatments are currently being used to treat this disorder.

TL;DR: This guideline provides the state‐of‐the‐art evidence regarding the diagnosis of DoC, summarizing data from bedside examination techniques, functional neuroimaging and electroencephalography (EEG).
