Control of Stroke-Related Genu Recurvatum With Prolonged Timing of Dorsiflexor Functional Electrical Stimulation: A Case Study
Discussion: This case study illustrates the potential value of prolonged timing of dorsiflexor FES to manage genu recurvatum attributed to a dynamic equinus foot in a stroke survivor. (Source: Journal of Neurologic Physical Therapy)

Using the TIDieR Checklist to Standardize the Description of a Functional Strength Training Intervention for the Upper Limb After Stroke
Conclusions: TIDieR is a systematic way of reporting the intervention delivered in a clinical trial of a complex intervention such as stroke rehabilitation. This approach may also have value for standardizing intervention in clinical practice.

Reactive Stepping After Stroke: Determinants of Time to Foot Off in the Paretic and Nonparetic Limb
Conclusions: Unique stroke-related impairments of dynamic balance control and limb-load asymmetry may differentially influence paretic and nonparetic reactive step TFO, in response to a loss of balance. The amplitude of the perturbation influences reactive step TFO in both limbs. The results of the current study have implications for the future development of standardized clinical assessment methodologies and training strategies to evaluate and remediate reactive stepping and reduce fall risk.

Associations Between Sensorimotor Impairments in the Upper Limb at 1 Week and 6 Months After Stroke
Conclusions: : This study showed that somatosensory impairments are common and suggests that the association with upper limb motor and functional performance increases with time after stroke.

The Effects of “Physical Activity on Prescription” in Persons With Transient Ischemic Attack: A Randomized Controlled Study
Conclusions: PaP did not increase physical activity after TIA; however, there was an increase in physical capacity. The nonsignificant results for physical activity may be the result of a relatively high baseline physical activity level. The results may also indicate that prior studies suggesting that PaP increases physical activity overestimated effects because of the self-reported nature of the previous outcomes.

Pulmonary Physical Therapy Techniques to Enhance Survival in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Systematic Review
Conclusions: Specific pulmonary physical therapy interventions (IMT, LVRT, and MAC) have effectiveness in improving respiratory outcome measures and increasing survival. These should be routinely incorporated into the comprehensive management of individuals with ALS. More rigorous methodological investigations should be performed to replicate these findings.

Vestibular Rehabilitation for Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction: An Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline: FROM THE AMERICAN PHYSICAL THERAPY ASSOCIATION NEUROLOGY SECTION
Discussion: Based on strong evidence and a preponderance of benefit over harm, clinicians should offer vestibular rehabilitation to persons with unilateral and bilateral vestibular hypofunction with impairments and functional limitations related to the vestibular deficit. Based on strong evidence and a preponderance of harm over benefit, clinicians should not include voluntary saccadic or smooth-pursuit eye movements in isolation (ie, without head movement) as specific exercises for gaze stability. Based on moderate evidence, clinicians may offer specific exercise techniques to target identified impairments or functional l...
