What is New Technologies Promoting Active Upper Limb Rehabilitation After Stroke: an Overview and Network Meta-analysis about?
## INTRODUCTION The primary aim of this work was to summarize and compare the effects of active rehabilitation assisted by new technologies (virtual reality [VR], robot-assisted therapy [RAT] and telerehabilitation [TR)) on upper limb motor function and everyday living activity during the subacute and chronic phases of stroke. The secondary aims were to compare the effects of these technologies according to the intervention design (in addition to or in substitution of conventional therapy), the duration of active rehabilitation and the severity of patients’ motor impairments. ## EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Several databases, namely PubMed, Scopus, Embase and Cochrane Library, were searched. Studies were included if they were meta-analyses with a moderate to high level of confidence (assessed with AMSTAR-2) that compared the effects of a new technology promoting active rehabilitation to that of a conventional therapy program among patients with stroke. Network meta-analyses were conducted to compare the effects of the new technologies. ## EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Eighteen different meta-analyses were selected and fifteen included in the quantitative analysis. In total these 15 meta-analyses were
