Dimensionality and item-difficulty hierarchy of the Fugl-Meyer assessment of the upper extremity among Japanese patients who have experienced stroke
Conclusions:This study provides evidence that the FMA-UE has multidimensionality and the 30-item FMA-UE is a valid instrument for measuring upper-extremity impairment after stroke.PMID:34414858 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.1965797

Reliability and validity of Japanese version of Fugl-Meyer assessment for the lower extremities
Conclusions: The Japanese FMA-LE was reliable, valid, and useful for evaluating lower extremity function of acute stroke patients.PMID:33724162 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.1899700

Clinimetric properties of the action research arm test for the assessment of arm activity in hemiparetic patients after stroke.
Conclusions: The Japanese version of the ARAT is highly reliable and valid for measuring upper-extremity function in patients with stroke. Adding the performance timescale on the ARAT score scale can partially solve the "ceiling effect problem". PMID: 31618111 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and the risk of stroke recurrence in patients with a history of minor ischemic stroke in Japan: a retrospective analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with a history of mild ischemic stroke had low MVPA and high VFL values, which together may be a risk factor for RIS. PMID: 30207894 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinimetric properties of the Fugl-Meyer assessment with adapted guidelines for the assessment of arm function in hemiparetic patients after stroke.
Conclusions The Japanese version of the FMA motor domain and all domains can reliably assess the affected upper extremities in patients with mild-to-severe hemiparesis after stroke for both non-simultaneous and simultaneous assessment. PMID: 30028660 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
