MRI Biomarkers for Hand-Motor Outcome Prediction and Therapy Monitoring following Stroke
Several biomarkers have been identified which enable a considerable prediction of hand-motor outcome after cerebral damage already in the subacute stage after stroke. We here review the value of MRI biomarkers in the evaluation of corticospinal integrity and functional recruitment of motor resources. Many of the functional imaging parameters are not feasible early after stroke or for patients w...
متن کاملRobot-based hand motor therapy after stroke.
Robots can improve motor status after stroke with certain advantages, but there has been less emphasis to date on robotic developments for the hand. The goal of this study was to determine whether a hand-wrist robot would improve motor function, and to evaluate the specificity of therapy effects on brain reorganization. Subjects with chronic stroke producing moderate right arm/hand weakness rec...
متن کاملBiomarkers for monitoring antiangiogenic therapy.
A variety of antiangiogenic agents are currently available for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma. With these exciting new therapeutic agents comes the challenge of elucidating useful biomarkers to monitor patients receiving these therapies. Although many patients benefit from antiangiogenic therapies, it is often by achieving stability of their disease. Thus, development of noninvasive biom...
متن کاملHand coordination following capsular stroke.
Motor outcome following stroke of the internal capsule is variable and its determinants are poorly understood. While many patients fully regain their abilities, recovery of motor functions remains incomplete in others. We analysed functional motor tasks of the upper limb to determine the pattern of focal disability after a small infarct of the internal capsule ('pure motor stroke') in the chron...
متن کاملConnectivity-Based Predictions of Hand Motor Outcome for Patients at the Subacute Stage After Stroke
BACKGROUND Connectivity-based predictions of hand motor outcome have been proposed to be useful in stroke patients. We intended to assess the prognostic value of different imaging methods on short-term (3 months) and long-term (6 months) motor outcome after stroke. METHODS We measured resting state functional connectivity (rsFC), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and grip strength in 19 stroke...
