Shown are number of participants, mean age (range), gender, race, hand dominance, paretic side, mean Fugl-Meyer assessment score at first assessment (range; maximum 66), and time since stroke (range). Inclusion criteria were age ≥18 years; premorbid right-hand dominance; unilateral motor stroke; contralateral arm weakness with Medical Research Council score <5/5 in a major muscle group.
