Abstract in brief

Bilateral arm training (BAT) shows promise for improving motor impairments after stroke, outperforming conventional therapy in some measures, especially for motor impairments rather than functional performance.
The success of BAT is linked to factors such as focusing on mildly impaired chronic stroke patients and using higher doses of intervention; subgroup analyses also indicate that bilateral functional task training benefits both motor impairments and functional performance.
However, overall, the effectiveness of BAT remains inconclusive with mixed results across different outcome measures, highlighting the need for further research to clarify which factors optimize its success.]
