A Medication Combination for the Treatment of Central Post-Stroke Pain (CPSP) via the Adjuvant use of Prednisone with Gabapentin: A Case Report
CPSP is a neuropathic pain syndrome that can occur from pathology of the brain. The case presented is of a female with multiple comorbidities and who was found to have an acute infarct in the left middle and anterior cerebral artery territories. She began to complain of worsening diffuse right upper and lower extremity pain, and central post-stroke pain was diagnosed. First-line agents were contraindicated due to medical comorbidities, and chronic kidney disease only permitted the use of low dose gabapentin.

Should This Patient With Ischemic Stroke Receive Fluoxetine?
You admit T.R., a 75-year-old man, to your inpatient rehabilitation unit 10 days after a stroke. He has a medical history of hypertension and type II diabetes. On the day of his admission to the neurology service, he experienced a sudden onset of severe left-sided weakness with a facial droop and slurring of speech. His husband was driving them both to a social event at the time and detoured immediately to the emergency department, where the patient received tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) for a large, right middle cerebral artery thrombosis seen on magnetic resonance imaging.

The Effects of Combination of Robot-Assisted Therapy with Task-Specific or Impairment-Oriented Training on Motor Function and Quality of Life in Chronic Stroke
Robot-assisted therapy (RT) is a promising intervention for stroke rehabilitation. RT hybridized with therapist-mediated therapy (eg, RT plus task-specific or impairment-oriented training) may possibly yield functionally relevant improvements. Comparative study of the different combination regimens is needed.
