| Abstract |
The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a web-based therapy programme, 'Move it to improve it' (Mitii(™)), in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) on occupational performance, upper limb function, and visual perception. Participants (n=102) were matched in pairs and randomized to intervention (Mitii for 20wks; 26 males, mean age 11y 8mo [2y 4mo], Manual Ability Classification System level I=11, II=39, III=1) or control (standard care; 25 males, mean age 11y 10mo [2y 5mo], Manual Ability Classification System level I=13, II=37). Outcomes were the Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS), Assisting Hand Assessment, Jebsen-Taylor Test of Hand Function (JTTHF), Melbourne Assessment of Unilateral Upper Limb Function (MUUL), Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM), and Test of Visual Perceptual Skills (TVPS-3). Participants completed on average 32.4 hours of Mitii (range 3.7-74.7h). The Mitii group demonstrated significantly greater post-intervention scores than the comparison group on the AMPS, JTTHF dominant upper limb, COPM, and TVPS-3. The differences between groups were not clinically significant. There were no differences between groups on measures of impaired upper limb function. Mitii delivers individualized, web-based therapy at home and has potential to increase therapy dose. Mitii can be considered as an option to enhance occupational performance and visual perception for children with UCP. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 December 2017.
All research outputs
#4,599,472
of 24,558,777 outputs
Outputs from Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology
#840
of 4,343 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#52,629
of 260,217 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology
#7
of 61 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,558,777 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 81st percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,343 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 260,217 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 61 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
