Characteristics of the shoulder in patients following acute stroke: a case series.
CONCLUSIONS: Given the severity of upper limb motor impairment, pain and reduced PROM were seen in a small number of participants. The clinical course of shoulder pain and PROM following stroke remains unclear. Large observational studies tracking shoulder characteristics from acute through to rehabilitation settings are needed.

Associations between Parkinson Disease and Stroke (S51.006)

Probable REM sleep behavior disorder and risk of stroke: A prospective study
Conclusions: Presence of pRBD was associated with a higher risk of developing stroke, including both ischemic and hemorrhagic types. Future studies with clinically confirmed RBD and a longer follow-up would be appropriate to further investigate this association.

Parkinson ’s Disease and Ischemic Stroke: a Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Study
AbstractWe aimed to assess the potential causal association between Parkinson ’s disease (PD) and ischemic stroke (IS) with Mendelian randomization methods. Summary statistics data from two large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for 33,674 PD cases and 40,585 IS cases were used in this study. We used inverse variance-weighted method for primary analysis, and fou r other Mendelian randomization methods (weighted median, MR-Egger regression methods, robust adjusted profile score, radial regression) to test whether PD was causal for IS and its subtypes. Analyses were bidirectional to assess reverse causality. Pr...

Could saccadic function be a useful marker of stroke recovery?
There is no pharmacological therapy presently available to improve the long-term recovery from acute ischaemic stroke. Either there hasn't yet been a suitable treatment trialled, or the tools for measuring recovery have not been sensitive enough. It is critical therefore to continue to search for robust objective markers of stroke recovery in parallel with the push for drug discovery. Can saccade measures provide such a marker? Dong et al report that in a limited number of mild stroke patients, saccadic parameters that probe cognitive function, especially errors of inhibition during antisaccade and memory-guided paradigms,...

Predicting brain atrophy from resting-state functional connectivity and structural connectivity in ischemic stroke (P5.297)

Abstract 11: Temporal Changes in NIHSS Documentation and Stroke Severity among Patients Treated with Thrombolysis in the Massachusetts Coverdell Registry Session Title: Concurrent I Session B: Oral Abstracts on Stroke Topics
Discussion: IV tPA use in MA Coverdell patients is increasing and now reaches 25% of all early arriving subjects. NIHSS documentation is increasing as well, especially among subjects with lower NIHSS scores. The median NIHSS in RISS or Too Mild patients is reassuringly low, and decreased significantly among Too Mild patients. These data, coupled with the fact that unadjusted rates of discharge home among IV tPA patients are increasing while severity-adjusted rates are not, suggests that more patients previously felt to be Too Mild are now receiving IV tPA. Further efforts are still warranted.

A stroke mimic; focal neurological deficits in benign hereditary chorea?
Conclusion This case highlights the difficulties in assessing patients with new focal neurological symptoms in the presence of known, pre existing, neurological disease. It also serves to highlight how often erroneously progressive weakness is mislabelled as a ‘stroke’. Neurologists working together with acute physicians in liaison posts in MAU, provides a unique opportunity to improve overall recognition of neurological disease, and for patients potentially provides a more timely diagnostic work–up and the opportunity for early treatment.

Rasch analysis of the Burke Lateropulsion Scale (BLS).
CONCLUSIONS: This study identified good psychometric properties of the BLS using Rasch analysis and supports the use of the BLS as a measure of lateropulsion following stroke. Further use of Rasch analysis on the BLS using a larger sample is recommended to confirm these preliminary findings and allow transformation into an interval-level scale.

Efficacy of Bisphosphonates against Hip Fracture in Elderly Patients with Stroke and Parkinson Diseases: Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Stroke and Parkinson disease cause disability and immobilization that increase the risk for fractures. The purpose of the present research was to clarify the efficacy of 3 different bisphosphonates against hip fracture in elderly patients with these neurologic diseases. A literature search was performed in Medline, Embase, CBMdisc, and the Cochrane Library until March 1, 2014, with respect to strictly conducted randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and a meta-analysis was conducted. Every study was evaluated using the Jadad scale.

Effectiveness of Home-based rehabilitation in improving physical function of persons with Stroke and other physical disability: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials
A significant number of people with physical disabilities in the world, especially in most developing countries face a lot of impediments. There is a dearth of literature describing the consensus of effectiveness of home-based rehabilitation programs designed specifically for people living with different types of physical disabilities resulting from stroke, Parkinson's and other musculoskeletal conditions.

Anxiety in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke: Risk Factors and Effects on Functional Status
Conclusion: Depressive symptoms are the major correlates of PSA while more severe PSA is associated with poorer ADL and health-related QOL. Acute lesions involving CHWM may correlate with PSA in ischemic stroke patients with mild-to-moderate neurologic deficits, supporting a lesion-location hypothesis in PSA.IntroductionAnxiety is prevalent after stroke and occurs in about one-quarter of stroke survivors (1, 2). Poststroke anxiety (PSA) may have a negative impact on quality of life (QOL) of stroke survivors, affecting their rehabilitation (3). Furthermore, one prospective study found that severe anxiety symptoms were assoc...
