BACKGROUND: Impaired ankle proprioception strongly predicts balance dysfunction in chronic stroke. However, only sparse data on ankle position sense and no systematic data on ankle motion sense dysfunction in stroke are available. Moreover, the lesio...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Robot technology to support upper limb (UL) rehabilitation poststroke has rapidly developed over the past 3 decades. We aimed to assess the effects of UL-robots (UL-RTs) on recovery of UL motor functioning and capacity post...

BACKGROUND: Upper limb impairments are among the most common consequences following a stroke. Recently, robot-assisted therapy (RT) and virtual reality (VR) have been used to improve upper limb function in stroke survivors.
INTRODUCTION: About 17-80% stroke survivors experience the deficit of upper limb function, which strongly influences their independence and quality of life. Robot-assisted training and functional electrical stimulation are commonly used interventions...
