Are unstable support surfaces superior to stable support surfaces during trunk rehabilitation after stroke? A systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: Trunk training on unstable support surfaces seemed to be superior to stable support surfaces in improving static and dynamic balance. However, more research is necessary, since the risk of bias of the included studies was high. Implications for Rehabilitation Trunk training on unstable surfaces seems to be superior to stable surfaces in improving static and dynamic balance. Physio balls, air cushions, balance pads, and unstable boards are appropriate supports to enhance balance during stroke rehabilitation. Implementing unstable supports early in rehabilitation might be more beneficial.

Overground gait training using a motorized assistive device in patients with severe disabilities after stroke
Regaining of the patient’s ability to walk after stroke is an important goal of rehabilitation programmes. The ultimate goal of gait rehabilitation is to empower patients for overground walking. We have previously developed a prototype of a therapist-controlled mobile platform with compliant pelvis support mechanism that enables balance training during overground walking (device E-go). The aim of this pilot randomized controlled study was to explore the usefulness of the E-go in reducing the number of therapists needed during walking training, and to explore the effectiveness of the E-go on walking abilities in severely ...

Transcranial and spinal cord magnetic stimulation in treatment of spasticity. A literature review and meta--analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: According to the meta-analysis, the statistically significant effect of TMS in the form of reduced spasticity was demonstrated only for the developed due to lesions at the brain stem and spinal cord level. To clarify the amount of the antispasmodic effect of repetitive TMS at other lesion levels, in particular in patients with hemispheric stroke, further research is required.

Gait training with Hybrid Assistive Limb enhances the gait functions in subacute stroke patients: A pilot study.
CONCLUSIONS: HT improved walking speed in hemiplegic sub-acute stroke patients. In future, randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm the utility of HT.

Comparison of the effects of mirror therapy and electromyography-triggered neuromuscular stimulation on hand functions in stroke patients: a pilot study
To determine the effectiveness of mirror therapy and electromyography (EMG)-triggered neuromuscular stimulation on improvement of functions of the upper extremity in patients with subacute stroke in comparison with conventional therapy as well as to evaluate the advantage of each treatment over another, we conducted a prospective, randomized, and controlled trial involving 24 patients with ischemic stroke. The mean age and mean time since stroke of the patients were 58.79±11.49 years and 5.25±2.25 months. Patients were assigned randomly to a mirror therapy group (MT group, n=9), which consisted of therapy with a mirror b...

What is current practice for upper limb rehabilitation in the acute hospital setting following stroke? A systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: A small proportion of total PT and OT time is directed to the involved UL during acute rehabilitation. Given the evidence for early and intense rehabilitation, there is a need to explore the reasons for this low intensity of UL therapy in the acute stage post-stroke.
