Abstract

Recovery of hand function after stroke has been associated with transient overactivation of the cerebral sensorimotor network. One open question has been as to how much this transient overactivation is related to 'true' reorganisation of the network or reflecting the fact that a simple motor task is difficult to perform for a patient with a motor deficit, i.e. reflecting 'effort'.
