| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bilateral movement-based computer training | Experimental | All subjects underwent 16 sessions of assigned treatment (2 times per week; for 8 weeks; 3 hours standardized rehabilitation program per visit) There was 1.5 hours standardized conventional physiotherapy training a 1.5 hours multi-disciplinary program which consisted of standardized occupational therapy, speech therapy and nursing care. Subjects in Intervention Group will be assigned an additional 30 minutes bilateral movement-based computer games(Able-X) training program of upper limb. |

| Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremity Scores (FMA-UE scores) baseline to 4 weeks | The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) is a stroke-specific, performance-based impairment index. It is designed to assess motor functioning, balance, sensation and joint functioning in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia. It is applied clinically and in research to determine disease severity, describe motor recovery, and to plan and assess treatment. The FMA-UE scores measure motor impairment of upper extremity. The motor domain includes items assessing movement, coordination, and reflex action of the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist and hand. | Change from baseline to 4 weeks |

It is designed to assess motor functioning, balance, sensation and joint functioning in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia. It is applied clinically and in research to determine disease severity, describe motor recovery, and to plan and assess treatment. The FMA-UE scores measure motor impairment of upper extremity. The motor domain includes items assessing movement, coordination, and reflex action of the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist and hand. | Change from baseline to 12 weeks (4 weeks after training ended) |

| Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) baseline to 4 weeks | The Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) is an evaluative measure to assess specific changes in limb function among individuals who sustained cortical damage resulting in hemiplegia. It assesses a client's ability to handle objects differing in size, weight and shape and therefore can be considered to be an arm-specific measure of activity limitation. |
