Effect of bihemispheric anodal transcranial direct current stimulation for dysphagia in chronic stroke patients: A randomized clinical trial.
CONCLUSION: The bihemispheric anodal tDCS with conventional dysphagia therapy had additional helpful effects on the improvement in swallowing function in chronic stroke patients. PMID: 27904911 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinical feasibility of Xbox KinectTM training for stroke rehabilitation: A single-blind randomized controlled pilot study.
CONCLUSION: Xbox KinectTM training appears feasible and safe in upper extremity ehabilitation after stroke. It could enhance motor and functional recovery of the affected upper extremity as an adjunctive method. PMID: 27973678 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effectiveness of a structured sexual rehabilitation programme following stroke: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Provision of written information alone appears to be as effective as a 30-min individualized sexual rehabilitation programme in an inpatient setting. Further research is needed regarding longer term outcomes and outpatient settings. PMID: 28350412 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Influence of physician empathy on the outcome of botulinum toxin treatment for upper limb spasticity in patients with chronic stroke: A cohort study.
CONCLUSION: These findings support the hypothesis that patient-rated physician empathy may influence the outcome of botulinum toxin treatment in chronic stroke patients with upper limb spasticity as measured by Goal Attainment Scaling. PMID: 28471469 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Do clinical assessments, steady-state or daily-life gait characteristics predict falls in ambulatory chronic stroke survivors?
CONCLUSION: Independent of the type of gait assessment, qualitative gait characteristics are better fall predictors than clinical assessments. Clinicians should therefore consider gait analyses as an alternative for identifying fall-prone stroke survivors. PMID: 28475196 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Electromyographic bridge for promoting the recovery of hand movements in subacute stroke patients: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: In the present group of subacute stroke patients, the results favour EMGB over cyclic NMES for augmenting the recovery of volitional wrist and finger motion. PMID: 28792587 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Measurement properties of maximal cardiopulmonary exercise tests protocols in persons after stroke: A systematic review.
CONCLUSION: No judgement could be made on which protocol is "best" for measuring VO2max in persons after stroke due to lack of high-quality studies on the measurement properties of the cardiopulmonary exercise test. PMID: 28862313 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Berg Balance Scale score at admission can predict walking suitable for community ambulation at discharge from inpatient stroke rehabilitation.
CONCLUSION: The Berg Balance Scale can be used at rehabilitation admission to predict the degree of improvement in walking for patients with stroke. PMID: 29068037 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of Tai Chi on balance and gait in stroke survivors: A systematic meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
CONCLUSION: Tai chi may be beneficial for stroke survivors with respect to gait ability in the short term, but further large, long-term randomized controlled trials with standard evaluation indicators are needed to confirm this conclusion. PMID: 29736553 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Development and validation of a clinically applicable arm use monitor for patients after stroke.
CONCLUSION: By combining the movement intensity threshold with body posture and movements, good agreement was reached between the Activ8-AUM and video recordings. This result, together with the easy-to-use configuration, makes the Activ8-AUM a promising device to measure arm use in people after stroke. PMID: 29944168 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Influence of functional electrical stimulation of the hamstrings on knee kinematics in stroke survivors walking with stiff knee gait.
Conclusion: The results of this exploratory study suggest an increase in knee kinematics in swing after functional electrical stimulation of the hamstrings in stroke survivors walking with a stiff knee gait. The largest improvement in peak knee flexion in swing was seen when participants walked with hamstring stimulation. Participants with low neurological impairment responded better to hamstring stimulation, and there are indications that the effect of hamstring stimulation can be predicted during a single session. The effect of functional electrical stimulation is comparable to that of more invasive treatment options, su...

Test-retest reliability of the Life Satisfaction Questionnaire (LiSat-11) and association between items in individuals with chronic stroke.
CONCLUSION: LiSat-11 is considered reliable and can be recommended for assessing life satisfaction after stroke. The association between items indicates that LiSat-11 measures various aspects that can impact on an individual's life satisfaction. PMID: 30080236 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effect of crossed-education using a tilt table task-oriented approach in subjects with post-stroke hemiplegia: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Compared with tilt table or conventional training alone, crossed-education using task-oriented training on a tilt table may result in improvements in arm function and maximal grip strength in persons with chronic hemiplegia post-stroke. PMID: 30221305 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effect of long-term use of ankle-foot orthoses on tibialis anterior muscle electromyography in patients with sub-acute stroke: a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Use of ankle-foot orthoses post-stroke reduced tibialis anterior muscle activity in the swing phase within 1 measurement; however, long-term use of ankle-foot orthoses for 26 weeks did not affect such activity. Early or delayed provision of ankle-foot orthoses did not affect the findings. The results indicate that there is no need to fear negative consequences on tibialis anterior-activity because of long-term AFO-use (early) after stroke.

Impact of unilateral spatial neglect with or without other cognitive impairments on independent gait recovery in stroke survivors.
CONCLUSION: The presence of unilateral spatial neglect without other cognitive impairments is not a significant factor for regaining independent gait. In contrast, unilateral spatial neglect becomes a strong negative factor when combined with other cognitive impairments. PMID: 30406267 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
