Factors predicting the total medical costs associated with first-ever ischemic stroke patients transferred to the rehabilitation ward.
Conclusion: These findings can help clinicians to identify risk factors for total medical costs in these patients and reduce costs by minimizing some complications (hypoalbuminaemia, fever, hypokalaemia, and hyponatraemia). PMID: 25268933 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Functional goal achievement in post-stroke spasticity patients: the BOTOX® Economic Spasticity Trial (BEST).
CONCLUSIONS: Addition of onabotulinumtoxinA to standard of care as part of goal-oriented rehabilitation in post-stroke spasticity patients significantly increased passive goal achievement and was associated with higher levels of active function. PMID: 24715249 [PubMed - in process]

Factors shaping the delivery of acute inpatient stroke therapy: A narrative synthesis.
Conclusion: Conceptual, individual and professional factors impact on the delivery of rehabilitation. Further research is needed to examine how therapists negotiate the sometimes conflicting factors shaping delivery of therapy. PMID: 25437308 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Efficacy of gait training using a treadmill with and without visual biofeedback in patients after stroke: A randomized study.
CONCLUSION: Gait training using a treadmill resulted in improvements in the gait and functional capacity of patients. The use of biofeedback gives better results in improving gait cycle length, duration of gait phases and swing phase speed compared with exercise on a treadmill alone. PMID: 25757954 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Measurement of ankle plantar flexor spasticity following stroke: Assessment of a new quantitative tool.
CONCLUSION: The E-SAM appears to provide meaningful information on muscle tone and spasticity that is more specific and quantitative than that obtained with the MAS. While further study is necessary, this instrument shows promise as an easy-to-use clinical and research tool for the measurement of spasticity and muscle viscosity.

Dalfampridine in chronic sensorimotor deficits after ischemic stroke: A proof of concept study.
CONCLUSIONS: D-ER was generally well tolerated in participants with chronic stroke deficits. Potential drug activity on lower extremity sensorimotor function, with an improvement in walking speed, was seen. PMID: 26540083 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transcranial direct current stimulation for improving spasticity after stroke: A systematic review with meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: There is moderate-to-low quality evidence for no effect of tDCS on improving spasticity in people with stroke. PMID: 27172484 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A more symmetrical gait after split-belt treadmill walking increases the effort in paretic plantar flexors in people post-stroke.
CONCLUSION: A more symmetrical gait increases paretic plantar flexor efforts. Individuals post-stroke presenting high plantar flexor efforts when walking have limited muscle capacity to increase non-paretic step after split-belt walking. PMID: 27345026 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Influence of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on spasticity, balance, and walking speed in stroke patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation is associated with significantly reduced spasticity, increased static balance and walking speed, but has no influence on dynamic balance. PMID: 28862711 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Feasibility of task-specific brain-machine interface training for upper-extremity paralysis in patients with chronic hemiparetic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Our newly developed compact brain-machine interface system is feasible for use in real-world clinical settings. PMID: 28949370 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Mirror therapy for motor function of the upper extremity in patients with stroke: A meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: Although the included studies had high heterogeneity, meta-analysis provided some evidence that mirror therapy may significantly improve motor function of the upper limb in patients with stroke. Further well-designed studies are needed. PMID: 29077129 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Assessing of imagined and real expanded Timed Up and Go tests in patients with chronic stroke: A case-control study.
CONCLUSION: Temporal congruence was similar for healthy subjects and patients for all sub-tasks of the ETUG test. Moreover, temporal congruence was reduced for the same sub-tasks of the ETUG test in patients and healthy subjects. This suggests that the motor imagery involved the same cerebral structures in both groups, probably including the cerebellum, since it was intact in all patients.

Feasibility of a wearable soft-robotic glove to support impaired hand function in stroke patients.
CONCLUSION: Chronic stroke patients with impaired hand function were positive about the feasibility of the first prototype of the HandinMind system. How-ever, performance and ease of use of the system should be improved further in future development phases. PMID: 30003268 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Factors affecting the usability of an assistive soft robotic glove after stroke or multiple sclerosis.
Conclusion: The study highlights important aspects for consideration in the further development of new soft hand robotics for sustained use in activities of daily living after a central nervous system lesion. PMID: 31993671 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Cross-diagnostic scale-banking using Rasch analysis: Developing a common reference metric for generic and health condition-specific scales in people with rheumatoid arthritis and stroke.
CONCLUSION: This study provides a transformation table to enable direct comparisons among instruments measuring physical functioning commonly used in rheumatoid arthritis (HAQ) and stroke (FIMTM motor scale), as well as in people with disability in general (WHODAS 2.0).
