Loss of arm function after stroke: measurement, frequency, and recovery
Abstract
This study aims to establish the frequency of paralysis and other arm problems after stroke; the recovery of lost function; and to compare various tests of the affected arm. Thirteen per cent of the sample had no arm paralysis when first seen within 14 days. At 3 months 24 per cent of survivors had moderate or severe paralysis; 57 per cent could place nine pegs into holes within 50 seconds; 19 per cent had significant sensory disturbance; 5 per cent had shoulder pain; 8 per cent had restricted passive shoulder movement; and 17 per cent had some paralysis of the dominant arm. Between 3 and 6 months, improvement of motor power was seen in 40 per cent of patients, and 13 per cent of patients improved their function. Severity of initial paralysis was an important prognostic factor.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
