Actigraphy data were collected from all stroke and control participants. Standard test scores were only available for the stroke cohort, and BB scores were either collected or available for 28/30 participants. 21 of those participants also had AHA and MA scores. The control cohort had a slightly wider age range than the stroke cohort, although the median and mean ages were similar. There were more males than females in both cohorts
