PMID 42613619

This is a conceptual framework paper, not a study.

It proposes a five-phase model for designing stroke rehabilitation exercises around brain-network principles and reviews existing evidence for the CMR approach. It does not test anything or report new patient data.

What this paper is

This is a narrative review and conceptual framework paper. It proposes a theoretical model for network-oriented stroke rehabilitation and synthesizes existing literature, but does not report original research: no participants were recruited, no intervention was delivered by the authors, and no data were collected. Its contribution is a proposed framework and a discussion of prior studies, not empirical findings.
