TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between motor pathway injury and motor impairment was investigated using tract-based spatial statistics of white matter diffusion anisotropy and voxel-based morphometry of grey matter injury in patients with periventricular leucomalacia and spastic diplegia.

TL;DR: Downing motor tract injury along with overlying cortical volume reduction and reduced functional connectivity appears to be a leading pathophysiological mechanism of motor dysfunction in patients with periventricular leucomalacia.

TL;DR: The beneficial effects of hippotherapy on gross motor function and functional performance in children with CP compared to control group and the significant improvement in PEDI-FSS scores suggests that hippotherapy may be useful to maximize the functional performance of children withCP.

TL;DR: Induction of striatal neurogenesis by the intraventricular administration of BDNF and EGF promoted functional recovery in an adult animal model of neonatal HI brain injury and the effect of Ara-C to completely block functional recovery indicates that the effect may be the result of newly generated neurons.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided supporting the application of the virtual mirror paradigm using various visual modulation technologies to upper extremity rehabilitation in stroke patients with neurophysiological evidence of changes in corticospinal excitability.
