Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to clarify the relation between post-stroke motor reorganization of the brain and the structure of the pyramidal tract. We performed both fMRI using a hand movement task and tractography of the pyramidal tract in 16 patients with mildly hemiparetic stroke. fMRI brain activities were normal or reduced when the pyramidal tract was preserved, but were reorganized in nearly a half of the studies when the pyramidal tract was damaged. The pyramidal tract was normal in 12 studies: fMRI activation was normal in 6 and reduced in 3 after 3-13 days of stroke onset, and was normal in 2 and reduced in 1 after 1-12 months. The pyramidal tract was damaged in 7 studies: fMRI activation was normal in 2, reduced in 1 and reorganized in 1 after 4-14 days of stroke onset, and was normal in 1 and reorganized in 2 after 1-5 months. The findings suggest that damage to the pyramidal tract leads to post-stroke reorganization of brain motor network.
