Effects of the robot-assisted gait training device plus physiotherapy in improving ambulatory functions in subacute stroke patients with hemiplegia: An assessor-blinded, randomized controlled trial
Stroke is a major health problem worldwide1 and a major cause of death in people over 60 years old in many countries.2, 3 Hemiplegia is one of the disabilities resulting from stroke.4 Patients with hemiplegia usually have difficulties in maintaining their ambulatory function and daily activities.5, 6 Restoring ambulatory function is one of the main objectives in stroke rehabilitation.

Stroke Recovery During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Position Paper on Recommendations for Rehabilitation
Healthcare delivery shifted and adapted with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus 2 (CoV-2). Stroke care was negatively impacted across the care continuum and may lead to poor community living outcomes in those who survived a stroke during the ongoing pandemic. For instance, delays in seeking care, changes in length of stays, and shifts in discharge patterns were observed during the pandemic. Those seeking care were younger and had more severe neurological effects from stroke.

Letter to the Editor on "The Effectiveness of the Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Method on Gait Parameters in Patients with Stroke: A Systematic Review ”
We read with interest the article by Gunning et al ( “The Effectiveness of the Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) Method on Gait Parameters in Patients With Stroke: A Systematic Review”)1 and were moved to comment on the authors’ conclusions. The abstract of this article stated, “Current research suggests that PNF is an effective treatment for the improvement of gait parameters in patients with stroke.” Publication of such a statement led us to review the articles cited. We do not concur that these articles provide sufficient evidence that PNF is an effective treatment for improving gait parameters i...

Increasing Hand Opening in Chronic Hemiparetic Stroke Using Nerve Blocks
We investigated the best-case efficacy of emerging nerve block technologies in improving hand opening in individuals with stroke. Upper limb disability in chronic stroke stems from significant flexor bias and weakness of extensors, with hand opening particularly compromised in moderate to severely impaired individuals with stroke. A complete motor block of the ulnar and median nerves may improve volitional hand opening and/or hand opening with assistive Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES).

Role of Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Quality Measures to Predict Community Discharge After Stroke
Main objective: Examine the association between National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores measured during the acute care stay and inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) admission functional status, measured by the IRF-Patient Assessment Instrument (IRF-PAI) self-care and mobility quality measures, to deduce if quality measures can serve as a proxy for stroke severity. The self-care and mobility quality measures are indicators of physical function.Secondary objective: Investigate the predictive power of the NIHSS and IRF-PAI admission physical function quality measures to predict community discharge from IRF after stroke.

An equation with clinical applicability and adequate validity to predict the maximum oxygen consumption of individuals post-stroke
Individuals post-stroke have impaired cardiorespiratory fitness.1 The cardiorespiratory fitness (maximum oxygen consumption, VO2max, ml.kg −1.ml−1) provides information about the ability of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems to supply oxygen-rich blood.2,3 Moreover, it provides information about the neuromusculoskeletal system to use this oxygen during an activity performed for a long time.2,3 Low levels of cardiorespirator y fitness of individuals post-stroke are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases (including recurrent stroke) and limitations to perform activities.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation Paired With Upper-Limb Rehabilitation After Stroke: 2- and 3-Year Follow-up From the Pilot Study
More than 50% of people post-stroke have significant limitations in their ability to carry out day-to-day functional activities long term and are unable to effectively incorporate their impaired hand and arm during everyday tasks.1,2 The disabling effects typically persist for many years after the initial stroke.3,4 People with stroke often compensate by using the less impaired limb for daily activities, which may precipitate learned non-use and result in further deterioration of arm and hand function.

Cardiorespiratory fitness in individuals post-stroke: reference values and determinants
In the general population, cardiorespiratory fitness is the best predictor of all-cause mortality1,2 and it has been linked to a decreased chance of cardiovascular disease and a higher quality of life3. Post stroke, a higher cardiorespiratory fitness has been linked to better walking ability4, higher physical activity levels5, and decreased stroke recurrence6. Improving cardiorespiratory fitness through training is possible post stroke7,8 and an increase in cardiorespiratory fitness post stroke has been linked to improved functioning9.

Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques for the improvement of upper limb motor function and performance in activities of daily living after stroke: a systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Upper limb motor impairment is one of the most common sequelae of stroke1-3. Approximately 80% of stroke survivors have upper limb motor impairment4, 5 and only 20-30% of these survivors achieve functional recovery6, while 50-60% still have persistent impaired upper limb function six months later 7. Since the efficacy of standard physical rehabilitative approaches is limited8, novel and possibly more effective alternative treatment methods to improve upper limb functionality after stroke, with positive impact on activities of daily living (ADLs), is a research priority for both stroke survivors and caregivers7-9.

Inclusion of people with aphasia in stroke trials: a systematic search and review
Although people with aphasia (PwA) represent 30% of stroke survivors, they are frequently excluded from stroke research, or their inclusion is unclear. Such practice significantly limits the generalisability of stroke research, increases the need to duplicate research in aphasia-specific populations, and raises important ethical and human rights issues.

Patients' Views on the Impact of Stroke on Their Roles and Self: A Thematic Synthesis of Qualitative Studies
Conclusions: The thematic synthesis provides new insights into the poststroke experience. Regaining or developing a new self and roles was problematic. Interventions targeted at self-management should be focused on the recognition of this problem and included in rehabilitation, to facilitate adjustment and continuity as far as possible in life poststroke.
