Deficits in dynamic balance were the motor impairments that best explained limitations in community ambulation after stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Deficits in dynamic balance best explained limitations in community ambulation in individuals with chronic stroke. Future studies are needed to determine whether rehabilitation interventions aiming at improving dynamic balance would lead to unlimited-community ambulation.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Amongst common motor impairments observed after stroke, such as increased tonus of the ankle plantarflexor muscles and deficits in strength of the knee extensor muscles and lower-limb motor coordination, dynamic balance, was the only variable that explained limitations in community ambulation after stroke. Futur...

Lower-extremity constraint-induced movement therapy improved motor function, mobility, and walking after stroke
CONCLUSIONS: In an outpatient clinic setting, high-intensity LE-CIMT statistically significant improved motor function, functional mobility, and walking ability in middle-aged patients in the sub-acute and chronic post-stroke phases. However, studies with more robust designs need to be conducted to deepen the understanding of the efficacy of LE-CIMT.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: High-intensity LE-CIMT may be a feasible and useful treatment option in outpatient clinics to improve post-stroke walking ability.PMID:36892520 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.23.07683-9

Loaded and unloaded timed stair tests as tools for assessing advanced functional mobility in people with stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The TST is a reliable clinical tool for evaluating advanced functional mobility in people with stroke.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: TST is a fast and simple test that does not require sophisticated equipment, making it suitable for busy hospital and rehabilitation settings.PMID:36745156 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.23.07620-7

Correlates of participation six months after stroke in an Italian population: results from the RIPS (Post-Stroke Intensive Rehabilitation) Study
CONCLUSIONS: In our cohort of patients addressing postacute stroke rehabilitation, prestroke participation levels were on average good, while they were severely reduced six months after stroke for all the considered items except reading and making trips. Higher FAI at follow-up was independently associated with a higher functional level and no cognitive impairment at follow-up, with lower stroke severity in the postacute phase, as well as a higher anamnestic participation score.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Our results suggest that investigating prestroke participation may be highly relevant to predict, and possibly addr...
