Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study was aimed to determine the volumetric change in the corpus callosum after the rehabilitation program in patients with stroke. A total of 42 patients (22 males, 20 females), 21 right hemiplegic and 21 left hemiplegic patients with unilateral hemiplegia were enrolled in the rehabilitation program. Traditional physiotherapy treatment was applied 5 days in a week, 1 hour in a day for 6 weeks. The corpus callosum volumes were measured and evaluated on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images before and after the treatment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Physical therapy after stroke contributes to the physical and social recovery of the paralyzed person. Corpus callosum is the commissural fibers consisting of white matter connecting the cortical areas between hemispheres. Its main function is to provide information exchange and coordination by establishing interhemispheric connections between areas in the right and left hemispheres. Inactivity and decreased physical activity may cause a decrease in the volume of the corpus callosum in patients with stroke. It was aimed to determine the volumetric change in the corpus callosum after the rehabilitation program in patients with stroke. A total of 42 patients (22 males, 20 females), 21 right hemiplegic and 21 left hemiplegic patients with unilateral hemiplegia were enrolled in the rehabilitation program. Traditional physiotherapy treatment was applied 5 days in a week, 1 hour in a day for 6 weeks. The corpus callosum volumes were measured and evaluated on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images before and after the treatment.
