Check MELDINE with the keywords Forced Use, Contraint Induced Movement Therapy or Taub E and you will come up with a bunch of citations. There is one which Taub wrote in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in 1999 0r 2000 I think which gives a pretty good synopsis of FU. You might also want to check another author...Wolf S. Another strategy might be to do a yahoo search with those key terms and see what comes up ... probably alot. Good luck. Mark
