Effects of digital-based interventions on muscular strength in adults: a systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression of randomized controlled trials with quality of evidence assessment
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, DBI may serve as an effective method to improve measures of strength in adults, regardless of their health status as well as the type of digital device, the presence of human-computer interaction, and the age of participants. In addition, the DBI was found to be more effective than traditional training or rehabilitation methods.KEY MESSAGESDigital-based intervention (DBI) is effective in improving measures of muscular strength in adults regardless of participants' health statusDBIs were equally effective for strength improvements in lower and upper limbsAlthough, DBIs were found to be effective in imp...

Assessment of dizziness in neurology
Dizziness and vertigo are common symptoms. In acute vertigo, expert clinical assessment is critically important in discerning stroke from non-stroke causes because the results of stroke-protocol brain magnetic resonance imaging, including diffusion-weighted imaging, can be falsely negative in the first 24 hours. It follows that acute medical services must have access to clinicians expert in assessing acute vertigo. Expertise in clinical examination and interpretation of the findings requires appropriate training, but here we outline the basic diagnostic and therapeutic approach to patients with dizziness.

Observations on the kinematic characteristics of the healthy side of the knee in stroke patients: A cross-sectional study
This study confirms the importance of changes in the angle of motion of the knee on the side of the stroke patient in maintaining the stability of the knee joint. Therefore, their bilateral lower limb symmetry training should be paid attention to in the subsequent rehabilitation treatment.

Effects of a lower limb rehabilitation robot with various training modes in patients with stroke: A randomized controlled trial
Background:
The effect of robot-assisted gait training has been demonstrated to improve gait recovery in patients with stroke. The aim of this study was to determine effects of robot-assisted gait training with various training modes in patients post stroke.
Methods:
Forty-seven patients post stroke were randomly assigned to one of 4 groups: Healbot T with pelvic off mode (pelvic off group; n = 11); Healbot T with pelvic control mode (pelvic on group; n = 12); Healbot T with constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) mode (CIMT group; n = 10); and conventional physiotherapy (control group; n = 10...

Effectiveness of hospital-based low intensity and inspected aerobic training on functionality and cardiorespiratory fitness in unconditioned stroke patients: Importance of submaximal aerobic fitness markers
Introduction:
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of low-to moderate intensity aerobic training on cardiorespiratory functions in chronic unconditioned stroke patients. The oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) and the ventilatory threshold (VO2-VT) could represent the aerobic capacity in submaximal test. Our study examined the application of the submaximal parameters for evaluating aerobic capacity of chronic stroke patients.
Materials and methods:
In our assessor-blinded controlled pilot study 37 patients were randomized into 2 groups named: intervention group (IG, n: 21) and control gro...

Intensity control of robot-assisted gait training based on biometric data: Preliminary study
Conclusion:
In conclusion, when the robot intensity was adjusted using the patient’s heart rate or RPE, the treatment effect has no significant difference to when adjusting the intensity according to the know-how of the therapist.

Feasibility of dance therapy using telerehabilitation on trunk control and balance training in patients with stroke: A pilot study
Conclusion:
Dance therapy using telerehabilitation significantly improved the TIS scores in the experimental group and was not inferior to conventional rehabilitation treatment when compared in a non-inferiority test. The remote dance program may therefore have similar effects to those of conventional treatment regarding trunk-control improvement in patients with stroke.

Person-centred care in individuals with stroke: a qualitative study using in-depth interviews
CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: This paper describes relevant aspects that health professionals should consider when providing PCC in the context of the rehabilitation of individuals with stroke. Key messagesThe individuals' perspective regarding person-centred care (PCC) has considerable effects on the clinical practice of health professionals.Individuals with stroke describe how there is a person behind the "patient" label, with identity, needs and desire to participate in decision making.Training in the PCC model helps healthcare professionals identify the needs of individuals with stroke during rehabilitation.PMID:359303...
