“…It was estimated that after stroke, 70% of the patients present upper limb (UL) dysfunction, more than half present moderate to severe dysfunction, 40% are left with a non-functional arm with implications in quality of life [ 3 , 4 ] and only 5–20% recover UL function completely [ 5 , 6 ]. Although the main deficits were described for the contralesional limb (limb contralateral to the lesioned hemisphere), more recent studies have described postural control deficits also in the ipsilesional limb (limb ipsilateral to the lesioned hemisphere) [ 7 , 8 , 9 ], which were demonstrated to interfere in the rehabilitation of contralesional UL function [ 7 ]. Considering the determinant role of UL during activities of daily living (ADL) [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ], the rehabilitation of UL function, namely to improve the ability to reach and grasp, required in over 50% of ADLs [ 14 ], is a primary aim in stroke rehabilitation.…”
