Brain recovery after stroke: early changes and arm movement
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how the brain reorganizes itself after a stroke. It uses brain scans to see if early changes can predict how much arm function you might recover, which could help guide rehabilitation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 74 years old.
- You must have had a single recent ischemic stroke (a clot in the brain) that left you with weakness in your arm or hand.
- You must be able to understand and follow study instructions.
- You must be covered by French social security.
- You must be able to have an MRI scan (no pacemaker, metal clips, or severe claustrophobia).
- You cannot have received clot-busting treatment or a clot-removal procedure for this stroke, and you cannot have other major brain conditions.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests an upper-limb (arm/hand) rehabilitation program guided by brain activity signals, started soon after a stroke. It may help people with early incomplete arm recovery improve hand and arm function.
This study tries to predict how well your arm movement may improve after a stroke. It uses brain and/or nerve testing (like MRI and TMS) and could help doctors plan the best rehabilitation for you.
This study looks at how brain signals and MRI scans change after a first stroke that affects the arm. It tests whether these signals can help predict how well rehabilitation will work.
This study looks at the brain changes that happen after a stroke and how they affect arm movement. It uses MRI scans and gentle magnetic pulses to understand your brain better, which may help guide future treatments.
This study tests an intensive 6-week arm training program for people who had a first stroke 3 to 6 months ago and still have arm weakness. The goal is to see how the brain can recover arm function.
This study uses ultra-powerful MRI to see how the brain reorganizes after a stroke. It may help explain why some people recover arm movement and guide future therapies.
