Minimum to maximum scores (or units) are expressed under each outcome score. Pz: patient; M: male; F: female; R: right; L: left; MCA: middle cerebral artery; ACA: anterior cerebral artery; GP: Globus Pallidus; parac.: paracentral; sub.: subcortical; BG: Basal Ganglia; H: haemorrhagic; I: ischemic; time: time since stroke at the time of first assessment; TAAI: Tibialis Anterior Activation Index; MRC: Medical Research Council index; FV: fMRI protocol condition, attempted voluntary movement with concurrent FES; V: fMRI protocol condition, voluntary movement without FES.
