Feasibility of Cerebellar Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation to Facilitate Goal-Directed Weight Shifting in Chronic Post-Stroke Hemiplegics
The objectives of this work were to (1) present a refined Virtual Reality (VR)-based balance training platform (VBaT) that can measure Center of Pressure (CoP) and (2) carry out a study to understand the implication of ctDCS stimulating the dentate nuclei (PhaseD) and lobules VII-IX (PhaseL) on the postural control of chronic stroke patients when they interacted with VBaT. Also, we investigated whether hemiplegic patients (with intact cerebellum) having Basal Ganglia (BG) infarction had any differential abilities to correct postural sway from those with no BG infarction (while shifting weight to the Affected side). Results...

Is there a bidirectional relationship between stroke risk and mood disorders in older adult patients?
Research suggests that there may be a causal relationship between stroke and depression symptoms. However, the direction of this relationship remains unclear, which suggests the possibility that it is bidirectional.   Indeed, some findings suggest that depression is a common occurrence post-stroke and that individuals who have a greater stroke risk are also more likely to have depression. Conversely, there is also evidence that depression may be a risk factor for stroke. In addition, although most of the liter ature focuses on the relationship between cardiovascular health and depression, less is known about other mood di...

Developing complex interventions: lessons learned from a pilot study examining strategy training in acute stroke rehabilitation.
Conclusions:It is feasible and acceptable to administer both intervention protocols as an adjunct to acute inpatient rehabilitation, and strategy training shows promise for reducing disability. PMID: 24113727 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Bipolar disorder after stroke in an elderly patient.
We present a BD secondary to multiple subcortical biparietal lacunar infarctions, a lacunar infarction in left putamen and an ischemic lesion at the cerebral trunk evolving the right median portion, in a 65-year-old male patient who experienced manic, hypomanic, and depressive episodes, after 6, 10, and 16 months, respectively, of the cerebrovascular events.

Stroke prevention following modified endoscopic ablation and appendectomy for atrial fibrillation
We reported the results of stroke prevention following modified endoscopic procedure for atrial fibrillation. 82 patients underwent modified endoscopic procedure for atrial fibrillation (AF), in whom 47 had paroxysmal, 28 had persistent, and 7 had long-standing atrial fibrillation. CHA2DS2VASC median score was 3 (range from 0 to 8). The procedure was performed on the beating heart, through 3 ports on the left chest wall. Pulmonary vein isolation and ablation of the left atrium were achieved by bipolar radiofrequency ablation. Left atrial appendage (LAA) was excluded by stapler. Brain CT, cardiac CT and 24-h Holter monitori...

Electroencephalographic markers of robot-aided therapy in stroke patients for the evaluation of upper limb rehabilitation
Stroke is the leading cause of permanent disability in developed countries; its effects may include sensory, motor, and cognitive impairment as well as a reduced ability to perform self-care and participate in social and community activities. A number of studies have shown that the use of robotic systems in upper limb motor rehabilitation programs provides safe and intensive treatment to patients with motor impairments because of a neurological injury. Furthermore, robot-aided therapy was shown to be well accepted and tolerated by all patients; however, it is not known whether a specific robot-aided rehabilitation can indu...

Subliminal galvanic-vestibular stimulation recalibrates the distorted visual and tactile subjective vertical in right-sided stroke
In conclusion, we found that GVS rapidly influences poststroke verticality deficits in the visual and tactile modality, thus highlighting the importance of the vestibular system in the multimodal elaboration of the subjective vertical.

Sensors, Vol. 16, Pages 735: An Approach to the Prototyping of an Optimized Limited Stroke Actuator to Drive a Low Pressure Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve
The purpose of this article is to describe the design of a limited stroke actuator and the corresponding prototype to drive a Low Pressure (LP) Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve for use in Internal Combustion Engines (ICEs). The direct drive actuator topology is an axial flux machine with two air gaps in order to minimize the rotor inertia and a bipolar surface-mounted permanent magnet in order to respect an 80° angular stroke. Firstly, the actuator will be described and optimized under constraints of a 150 ms time response, a 0.363 N·m minimal torque on an angular range from 0° to 80° and prototyping constraints. ...

Lithium intoxication in the pre-hospital care with stroke symptoms - Case report.
Authors: Peran D, Pukovcova K, Pekara J, Nesvadba M, Nedved V, Christian Cmorej P, Cmorej PC, Bohm P, Mamova A Abstract Lithium is widely used in psychiatry to treat bipolar affective disorders since 1970 but little is known about the incidence, clinical course and associated factors of acute lithium intoxication. Moderate and severe cases of lithium intoxication are rare. This case reports a patient with acute lithium intoxication (serum level of 3.7 mmol/L) with neurological symptoms imitating stroke, which affects the differential diagnosis in the pre-hospital and hospital care. Patient was treated with forced d...

Retrospective Safety and Efficacy of the DeepTMS in a variety of pathologies including refractory Major Depression, Bipolar Depression, Parkinsońs Disease, negative symptoms of Schizophrenia and Stroke in a clinical setting; an update on the post-Marketing experience in Chile
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been proposed as add-on for the treatment of various pathologies, including refractory Major Depression (MD), Bipolar Depression (BD), Parkinsońs Disease (PD), negative symptoms of Schizophrenia (NS) and Stroke (ST). However, the effectiveness of the conventional rTMS in clinical settings is currently being debated. The novel Deep TMS H-coils can effectively stimulate deeper and larger brain regions than conventional rTMS coils, including the complete thickness of motor and prefrontal cortices, suggesting greater potential clinical efficacy.
