Data Sheet 1_Structural brain lesions and action observation therapy outcomes in unilatera

Francy Cruz-Sanabria's dataset contains results from an exploratory longitudinal study of 16 children with unilateral cerebral palsy. The data includes motor dexterity and bimanual performance scores from 64 evaluation sessions, assessed via the Box and Block Test and Assisting Hand Assessment, alongside semi-quantitative MRI lesion scores. The dataset was last updated on 2026-05-22.

Use Cases

• Modeling therapy response based on lesion location and severity mentioned in the description
• Analyzing longitudinal motor function changes based on Box and Block Test and Assisting Hand Assessment scores
• Investigating associations between specific brain regions (e.g., temporal lobe, thalamus) and rehabilitation outcomes

Strengths

• Data is from a structured longitudinal study with 64 evaluation sessions across 16 participants
• Includes clinical assessments (BBT, AHA) and neuroimaging data (sqMRI) for a multi-modal analysis
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• The dataset is small (674.5 KB), indicating a limited sample size of 16 children
