Test-Retest Reproducibility and Smallest Real Difference of 5 Hand Function Tests in Patients With Stroke
TL;DR: All tests showed higher levels of measurement error when performed with the more affected hand and in patients with hypertonicity of that hand, so baseline and postrehabilitation change scores using these common tests of strength and dexterity must be interpreted with some caution, especially in poorly controlled clinical trials.

A Theory-Driven System for the Specification of Rehabilitation Treatments
Tessa Hart,Marcel P. Dijkers,Marcel P. Dijkers,John Whyte,Lyn S. Turkstra,Jeanne M. Zanca,Andrew Packel,Jarrad H. Van Stan,Jarrad H. Van Stan,Mary Ferraro,Christine C. Chen +10 more
TL;DR: The Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System (RTSS) is described, by which any treatment employed in rehabilitation may be characterized, and ultimately classified according to shared properties, via the 3 elements of treatment theory: targets, ingredients, and (hypothesized) mechanisms of action.

The Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System: Implications for Improvements in Research Design, Reporting, Replication, and Synthesis.
Jarrad H. Van Stan,Marcel P. Dijkers,Marcel P. Dijkers,John Whyte,Tessa Hart,Lyn S. Turkstra,Jeanne M. Zanca,Christine C. Chen +7 more
TL;DR: How the Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System (RTSS) provides a theoretical framework that can improve research intervention reporting and enable testing and refinement of a protocol's underlying treatment theories is described.

Unilateral and bilateral upper limb dysfunction at body functions, activity and participation levels in people with multiple sclerosis
TL;DR: Uni-/bilateral upper limb abnormalities at all ICF levels increasing with the overall disability in people with multiple sclerosis is shown.

Kessler Foundation Neglect Assessment Process uniquely measures spatial neglect during activities of daily living.
TL;DR: The KF-NAP uniquely quantifies symptoms of spatial neglect by measuring functional difficulties that are not captured by the FIM or BI, and replicated previous findings showing that spatial neglect adversely affects rehabilitation outcome even after prolonged IRF care.
