Motor learning principles for neurorehabilitation

T Kitago, JW Krakauer - Handbook of clinical neurology, 2013 - Elsevier
Neurorehabilitation is based on the assumption that motor learning contributes to motor
recovery after injury. However, little is known about how learning itself is affected by brain injury, …

Improvement after constraint-induced movement therapy: recovery of normal motor control or task-specific compensation?

T Kitago, J Liang, VS Huang, S Hayes… - … and neural repair, 2013 - journals.sagepub.com
Background. Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) has proven effective in increasing
functional use of the affected arm in patients with chronic stroke. The mechanism of CIMT …

[HTML][HTML] Rehabilitation following hemorrhagic stroke: building the case for stroke-subtype specific recovery therapies

T Kitago, RR Ratan - F1000Research, 2017 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a form of brain bleeding and minor subtype of stroke, leads
to significant mortality and long-term disability. There are currently no validated approaches …

[HTML][HTML] Unlearning versus savings in visuomotor adaptation: comparing effects of washout, passage of time, and removal of errors on motor memory

T Kitago, SL Ryan, P Mazzoni, JW Krakauer… - Frontiers in human …, 2013 - frontiersin.org
Humans are able to rapidly adapt their movements when a visuomotor or other systematic
perturbation is imposed. However, the adaptation is forgotten or unlearned equally rapidly …

Separable systems for recovery of finger strength and control after stroke

…, N Kim, PA Celnik, T Kitago… - Journal of …, 2017 - journals.physiology.org
… For each time bin t (5 ms) in a single trial, the enslaved deviation of the force of each
uninstructed finger (F t,j ) from baseline force (BF j ) was calculated, assessed at the beginning of …

A short and distinct time window for recovery of arm motor control early after stroke revealed with a global measure of trajectory kinematics

…, P Celnik, JW Krakauer, T Kitago - … and neural repair, 2017 - journals.sagepub.com
Background. Studies demonstrate that most arm motor recovery occurs within three months
after stroke, when measured with standard clinical scales. Improvements on these measures, …

Rethinking interhemispheric imbalance as a target for stroke neurorehabilitation

…, J Goldsmith, M Lindquist, T Kitago… - Annals of …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
… μ (t,patient) and σ (t,patient) are estimated from patients data at each time point and σ patient
is estimated from all patients’ data. (E) Distribution of p values from sensitivity analysis with …

Comparing a novel neuroanimation experience to conventional therapy for high-dose intensive upper-limb training in subacute stroke: the SMARTS2 randomized trial

JW Krakauer, T Kitago, J Goldsmith… - … and neural repair, 2021 - journals.sagepub.com
… This analysis was based on a 2-sample t-test with 2-sided α level set at 0.05 and assumed
that the difference between groups in the change in FM-UE score would be 7 (MCID). For an …

Pharmacological enhancement of stroke recovery

A Kumar, T Kitago - Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2019 - Springer
Purpose of Review This review aims to discuss the recent literature relating to drugs for
stroke recovery and to identify some of the challenges in conducting translational research for …

Robotic therapy for chronic stroke: general recovery of impairment or improved task-specific skill?

T Kitago, J Goldsmith, M Harran… - Journal of …, 2015 - journals.physiology.org
… We represent kinematic data as [X i (t), Y i (t)], where X i (t) and Y i (t) are the X and Y
position of the hand at time t. FPCA expresses each motion as the combination of population-level …
