DISEASE, STROKE, SECONDARY
This study was a secondary analysis of the MOSE (Modularity for Sensory Motor Control) study (ClinicalTrial.gov, NCT03530358), a larger bi-center randomized controlled trial, and analyzed the data recorded at the IRCCS Don C. Gnocchi Foundation, Milan, Italy (Center 2), which tested the robot-assisted therapy for the upper limb rehabilitation after stroke [The study design, in both centers, consisted of a single-blind two-arm randomized 1:1 controlled trial. The subjects’ randomization was performed using a computerized automated program and was stratified according to disease onset (≤3 months or >3 months) to ensure group comparability in terms of the number and chronicity of participants.
