The efficacy of Wii ‐based Movement Therapy for upper limb rehabilitation in the chronic poststroke period: a randomized controlled trial
ConclusionsThis study demonstrates that Wii‐based Movement Therapy is an effective upper limb rehabilitation poststroke with high patient compliance. It is as effective as modified Constraint‐induced Movement Therapy for improving more affected upper limb movement and increased independence in activities of daily living.

Cerebrovascular correlates of vitamin D deficiency in older adults living near the Equator: results from the Atahualpa Project
This study shows an association of vitamin D deficiency with diffuse subcortical brain damage in older adults living in a tropical region. Lack of awareness of the importance of vitamin D deficiency might be one of the factors influencing the high prevalence of white matter hyperintensities of presumed vascular origin in underserved Latin American populations.
