A Chinese version of the Measure of Stroke Environment (MOSE): psychometric evaluation in stroke survivors.
CONCLUSION: This study provides psychometric evidence supporting the use of the Chinese version of the MOSE among stroke survivors. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION The Measure of Stroke Environment was translated into Chinese through a rigorous cultural adaptation process. MOSE-C is now a reliable and valid tool for Chinese-speaking survivors who have suffered from a stroke. It is necessary to assess the perceived environmental barriers of stroke survivors and develop targeted intervention programs in China. PMID: 33202159 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Hard return: the development and transformation process of social participation in stroke survivors; a qualitative study and initial theory.
CONCLUSION: This study has identified the development process of social participation in stroke survivors and "hard-return" suggests not only the tough process but also unsatisfactory results. Interventions targeted process ingredients seem to be potentially promising to improve stroke survivors' social function outcomes. PMID: 32375512 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The effect and optimal parameters of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on motor recovery in stroke patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
CONCLUSIONS:: rTMS promoted the recovery of limb motor function and changed the cortex excitability. rTMS may be better for early and pure subcortical stroke patients. Regarding different stimulation parameters, the number of stimulation sessions has an impact on the effect of rTMS. PMID: 30773896 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Reliability and validity of Six-Spot Step Test (SSST) in stroke survivors
CONCLUSIONS: The SSST was a reliable test and showed a significant correlation with FMA-LE scores, BBS scores, and TUG test times in stroke survivors.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: The SSST can be used to assess the advanced balance control of stroke survivors.PMID:34128605 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.21.06799-X
