Journal ArticleDOI
Motor recovery after stroke: a systematic review
TL;DR: Although the existing evidence is limited by poor trial designs, some treatments do show promise for improving motor recovery, particularly those that have focused on high-intensity and repetitive task-specific practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictors of upper limb recovery after stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: The most important predictive factors for upper limb recovery following stroke appears to be the initial severity of motor impairment or function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous bilateral training for improving arm function after stroke
TL;DR: Evidence is identified that suggests that bilateral training may be no more (or less) effective than usual care or other upper limb interventions for performance in ADL, functional movement of the upper limb or motor impairment outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do vascular risk factors explain the association between socioeconomic status and stroke incidence: a meta-analysis.
TL;DR: A systematic review and meta-analysis of studies examining the association of SES and stroke incidence found that low SES is associated with an increased risk of stroke that is partly explained by known classic vascular risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Home‐based therapy programmes for upper limb functional recovery following stroke
TL;DR: There is insufficient good quality evidence to make recommendations about the relative effect of home-based therapy programmes compared with placebo, no intervention or usual care.
