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.

Norwegian constraint-induced therapy multisite trial: Adherence to treatment protocol applied early after stroke.
CONCLUSION: Overall adherence was good; however, time spent in motor activity was only one-third of total treatment time. The parameters in the constraint-induced movement therapy protocol should be individually adjusted early after stroke. PMID: 26306733 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

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]

Assessment and treatment of spastic equinovarus foot after stroke: Guidance from the Mont-Godinne interdisciplinary group.
CONCLUSION: Based on 20 years of interdisciplinary expertise of management of the spastic foot, guidance was established to clarify a complex problem in order to help clinicians treat spastic equinovarus foot. This work should be the first step in a more global international consensus. PMID: 28451697 [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]

Rasch analysis of the UK Functional Assessment Measure in patients with complex disability after stroke.
CONCLUSION: The UK FIM+FAM with domain super-items satisfies expectations of the unidimensional Rasch model without the need for re-scoring. A conversion table was produced to convert the total scale scores into interval-level data based on person estimates of the Rasch model. The clinical benefits of interval-transformed scores require further evaluation. PMID: 29487943 [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]

Effects of game-based chin-tuck against resistance exercise vs head-lift exercise in patients with dysphagia after stroke: An assessor-blind, randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Game-based chin-tuck against resistance exercise not only has a similar effect to head-lift exercise on swallowing function of patients with dysphagia, but is also a less strict and more enjoyable and interesting method. PMID: 31515567 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
