Effect of Balance Support on the Energy Cost of Walking After Stroke
Conclusions: Balance support can result in a significant reduction in the energy cost of walking in stroke patients, the magnitude of which depends on walking ability and the walking task. Impaired balance control should not be overlooked as a contributing factor to the increased energy cost of walking in patients with stroke, and improving or assisting balance control should be considered to reduce the energy cost of hemiplegic gait.

Predicting Clinically Significant Changes in Motor and Functional Outcomes After Robot-Assisted Stroke Rehabilitation
Conclusions: The results revealed that patients with stroke who had greater manual dexterity measured by the BBT appear to have a higher probability of achieving clinically significant motor and functional outcomes after RT. Further studies are needed to evaluate other potential predictors to improve the models and validate the findings.

Identifying Need for Supported Employment for Working Age Stroke Survivors: A Pilot Study
Determine the return to work rate of working age stroke survivors, who currently constitute nearly 34% of the US stroke patients, at either their same pre-stroke employer or a new employer. Compare whether voluntary versus involuntary termination differs, for employees that fail to maintain post-stroke employment, based on employer type.

Does high-dose Botulinum Toxin has a Better Effect than Lower Dose in Spasticity Managements When given Early After Stroke
1)To evaluate the clinical effects of treatment with a higher dose (up to 600 U) , versus a lower dose (up to 200 U) of botulinum toxin.That will be injected early after stroke, when compared with placebo, in the treatment of upper limbs spasticity after stroke. 2)To evaluate the clinical effects of early treatment with a higher dose (up to 600 U) versus a lower dose (up to 200 U) of botulinum toxin on upper limb function recovery after stroke. 3) To asses the effect of early Botulinum Toxin injection on pain reduction post-stroke.

Reliability and Validity of the Timed Up and Go Test With a Motor Task in People With Chronic Stroke
To examine (1) the intra-rater, interrater, and test-retest reliabilities of the timed Up and Go test with a motor task (TUGmotor) in terms of the number of steps taken in the test and completion time in a population with chronic stroke; (2) the relation between stroke-specific impairments and the number of steps taken in the test and the completion time; (3) the minimum detectable change in TUGmotor times; and (4) the cutoff time that best discriminates the performance of people with stroke from that of older adults without stroke.

Driving After Mild Stroke
In the U.S. over 305,000 people have a mild stroke each year.1 Even mild stroke may lead to difficulties with physical function, thinking, and vision.2 Because of these challenges, people with mild stroke can complete basic tasks fairly easily, but may have difficulty returning to complex tasks like driving.2 Approximately 1 out of every 5 adults with mild stroke report difficulty with driving.3

Development of a Computerized Adaptive Testing System for Assessing 5 Functions in Patients with Stroke: a simulation and validation study
The authors aimed to develop and validate a Computerized Adaptive Testing System for Assessing 5 Functions in Patients with Stroke (CAT-5F) based on the Barthel Index (BI), Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke patients (PASS), and Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement (STREAM) to improve the efficiency of assessment. The purposes of the CAT-5F assessment are to describe patients ’ levels of impairments or disabilities in the 5 functions and to serve as an outcome measure in patients with stroke.

Early Botulinum Toxin Injections for Spasticity Management Post-stroke: A Delphi-based Canadian Consensus
To create a Canadian consensus statement on early intervention with botulinum toxin-A (BoNTA) injections for spasticity post-stroke. Spasticity is commonly seen in the early weeks post-stroke; if left untreated in this early period, spasticity can lead to contractures and further disability. Literature review indicates that there are very few studies examining the benefits of early BoNTA intervention on spasticity and function post-stroke. Although physicians choose to inject BoNTA in the early period post-stroke to manage spasticity, it is not clear what some of the clinical parameters are that can be used to assist in de...

Movement Matters, and So Does Context: Lessons Learned from Multisite Implementation of the Movement Matters Activity Program for Stroke in the COMPASS Study
The purpose of this Special Communication is to discuss the rationale and design of the Movement Matters Activity Program for Stroke (MMAP) and explore implementation successes and challenges in home health and outpatient therapy practices across the stroke belt state of North Carolina. MMAP is an interventional component of the COMprehensive Post-Acute Stroke Services (COMPASS) Study, a randomized multicenter pragmatic trial of stroke transitional care. MMAP was designed to maximize survivor health, recovery, and functional independence in the community and to promote evidence-based rehabilitative care.

FAST 112 HEROES: Patient Engagement in an Educational Stroke Awareness Program for Kindergarten
To engage patients who had a stroke in the past in the FAST 112 Heroes educational program (Tsakpounidou et al. 2019). Patient involvement is an important contribution to improve quality of care and advocacy. As stroke is worldwide a leading cause of disability and mortality (Gurol et al, 2018), individuals who suffered this near death experience are often aware of the stroke symptoms. Unfortunately, studies show that a great percentage of people are not able to recognize the stroke symptoms F.A.S.T.

Developing and Implementing a Collaborative Community Based Stroke Exercise Program
Though stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability, few options exist for stroke survivors to maintain a healthy lifestyle once rehabilitation ends. Our purpose was to develop and implement a community-based stroke exercise program (SEP) to promote the health of stroke survivors.

Suicide Following Stroke in the United States Veterans Health Administration Population
In the United States (US), suicide is a leading cause of death, and most of these suicides involve firearms, highlighting the importance of lethal means safety in suicide prevention.(1, 2) US Veterans experience a suicide rate 1.5 times higher than US civilian adults and are more likely to use firearms as the means of suicide.(3) Risk factors for suicide within this population include demographic factors such as sex, age, race, and level of education, as well as health factors such as smoking status, psychiatric conditions (e.g., posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD], depression, bipolar and anxiety disorders, schizophrenia...
