Ultrasound Assessment of Spastic Muscles in Ambulatory Chronic Stroke Survivors Reveals Function-Dependent Changes
Conclusion: Ambulatory chronic stroke survivors had function-dependent changes in muscle thickness on the affected side. Muscle thickness and echogenicity of spastic muscles did not correlate with spasticity, Fugl-Meyer motor assessment scores, age, or time since stroke.PMID:36254740 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v54.3199

Shoulder ultrasound imaging in the post-stroke population: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Ultrasonography enabled the identification of common shoulder pathologies after stroke. Further research is needed to establish the association between these changes and the clinical course of stroke patients.PMID:37615388 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v55.13432

Stride frequency and length adjustments in post-stroke individuals: Influence on the margins of stability.
In conclusion, training post-stroke individuals to increase stride frequency during walking might give them more opportunities to increase the margins of stability and consequently reduce fall risk. PMID: 25385332 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Echocardiographic abnormalities in patients with stroke during the subacute rehabilitation phase.
Conclusion: The prevalence of cardiac problems is high among patients with subacute stroke regardless of a history of heart disease, and this should be taken into account when planning rehabilitation programmes. PMID: 25188713 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Motor imagery during movement activates the brain more than movement alone after stroke: A pilot study.
CONCLUSIONS: The addition of motor imagery to movement may provide a practical, accessible way to modulate activity in both the planning and execution components of the motor network after stroke. PMID: 25182189 [PubMed - in process]

Stroke survivors', caregivers', and health care professionals' perspectives on the weekend pass to facilitate transition home.
CONCLUSIONS: When offering weekend passes, stroke care systems should carefully consider patients' and caregivers' readiness, emotional state, and preparation for weekend passes. The weekend pass experience can inform in-patient therapy, provide patients and caregivers with insight into life after stroke, and help prepare patients and families for the ultimate transition home.

Intra-rater and inter-rater reliability at the item level of the Action Research Arm Test for patients with stroke.
CONCLUSION: The ARAT is a highly reliable observational rating scale at the item level after stroke. Awareness regarding the small systematic disagreements demonstrated in some items is, however, recommended when using ARAT. PMID: 24953235 [PubMed - in process]

Predictors of oral health-related quality of life in patients following stroke.
Conclusion: OHRQoL is compromised following stroke and may be influenced by the lack of a regular daily brushing habit during hospitalization. The early re-establishment of an oral hygiene protocol is a priority in stroke rehabilitation wards in order to improve clinical oral health and OHRQoL.

Evidence for the effectiveness of walking training on walking and self-care after stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
CONCLUSION: Walking training improves walking capacity and, to some extent, self-care in different stages of stroke, but the training frequency should be fairly high. PMID: 24733289 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]

Serotonin syndrome in stroke patients.
Conclusion: Because a considerable number of stroke patients have some limitation in communication, and serotonin syndrome is a potentially life-threatening condition, clinicians should pay particular attention to the potential for development of serotonin syndrome when prescribing these drugs to stroke patients.

A "client-centred activities of daily living" intervention for persons with stroke: One-year follow-up of a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Further research is required to understand the benefits of client-centred interventions. PMID: 26121986 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Measurement variability of quantitative sensory testing in persons with post-stroke shoulder pain.
CONCLUSION: QST measurements, especially cold pain thresholds and mechanical pain thresholds, vary in persons with post-stroke shoulder pain. Before QST can be used routinely to evaluate post-stroke shoulder pain, a test protocol with decreased variability needs to be developed. PMID: 27097884 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

More than a black box of rehabilitation: Characterizing therapy programmes following botulinum toxin injections for spasticity in adults with stroke.
CONCLUSION: Ambulatory rehabilitation programmes following botulinum toxin injections for post-stroke spasticity varied depending on limb/s injected and reflected treatment goals to some extent. PMID: 27097568 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

High- and low-intensity exercise do not improve cognitive function after stroke: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to a small body of previous research suggesting positive benefits of exercise on cognition post-stroke, the current study found that 6 months of high or low intensity exercise was not effective in improving cognitive function, specifically executive functions. Further research in this area is warranted to establish the effectiveness of post-stroke exercise programs on cognition, and examine the mechanisms that underlie these changes.

Robotic devices and brain-machine interfaces for hand rehabilitation post-stroke.
CONCLUSION: This review provides novel insights into the use of robotics in physiotherapy practice, and may help system designers to develop new devices. PMID: 28597018 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
