简要总结
The current study will be directed to determine the effect of mechanical vestibular stimulation on fine motor skills and pinch strength in children with hemiparesis. Hemiplegic cerebral palsy causes problems with contraction, sensation, and muscular strength in the upper limbs, and its effective use of muscles for reaching, grasping, releasing, and manipulating objects is often compromised
