Neuronavigated high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for chronic post-stroke dysphagia: A randomized controlled study.
CONCLUSION: This study indicates that 5 Hz rTMS applied over the tongue area of the motor cortex is not effective for improving swallowing function in individuals with chronic post-stroke dysphagia. Possible explanations for these non-significant results are dis cussed. Future studies should explore the potential of the current protocol in conjunction with conventional dysphagia therapy.

Determining the cut-off value for knee extensor strength for identifying independence in gait in chronic stroke survivors.
CONCLUSION: These cut-off values could help to identify stroke survivors who are no longer independent in gait because of decreasing knee extensor strength on the paretic and non-paretic sides.

Upper-limb sensory impairments after stroke: Self-reported experiences of daily life and rehabilitation.
CONCLUSION: Stroke survivors perceive that sensory impairment of the upper limb has a highly negative impact on daily life, but specific rehabilitation for the upper limb is lacking. These findings imply that the clinical management of upper limb sensory impairment after stroke requires more attention.

Kinaesthetic ability training improves unilateral neglect and functional outcome in patients with stroke: A randomized control trial.
CONCLUSION: Kinaesthetic ability training provides clinically meaningful improvement in stroke patients with unilateral neglect. It may be useful as an adjunctive therapy for rehabilitation in these patients.

Accelerometry: A feasible method to monitor physical activity during sub-acute rehabilitation of persons with stroke.
CONCLUSION: This study supports the feasibility of using accelerometers to capture physical activity behaviour in survivors of stroke during inpatient rehabilitation.

Effectiveness of wii-based rehabilitation in stroke? A randomized controlled study.
CONCLUSION: Virtual reality exercises with the Nintendo Wii system could represent a useful adjunctive therapy to traditional treatment to improve static and dynamic balance in stroke patients.

Rehabilitation outcomes of stroke patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction in the subacute rehabilitation phase.
CONCLUSION: Stroke patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction in the subacute phase could achieve almost the same functional outcomes as those of patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. Although the general medical condition should be considered, the finding of low left ventricular ejection fraction did not pose a barrier to successful rehabilitation after stroke.

Effects of newly developed compact robot-aided upper extremity training system (Neuro-X ®) in patients with stroke: A pilot study.
CONCLUSION: The Neuro-X® training system improves functioning of the upper extremity and cognition in patients with stroke after 6 weeks of training.

Effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy on spasticity in post-stroke patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
CONCLUSION: Extracorporeal shock wave therapy has a significant effect on spasticity in post-stroke patients.

Effects of mechanical inspiration and expiration exercise on velopharyngeal incompetence in subacute stroke patients.
CONCLUSION: Mechanical inspiration and expiration exercise had a therapeutic effect on velopharyngeal incompetence in subacute stroke patients with dysphagia. This therapy is easy to provide clinically and could be a useful therapeutic strategy for velo-pharyngeal incompetence with dysphagia in patients with stroke.

Contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation improves wrist dorsiflexion and upper limb function in patients with early-phase stroke: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: CCFES signifcantly shortened the time for regaining wrist dorsiflexion, and improved the upper extremity function and general health of patients with early-phase stroke. CCFES therefore has potential as a clinical intervention.

Evaluation of a short assessment for upper extremity activity capacity early after stroke.
CONCLUSION: ARAT-2 appears to be valid and a responsive short assessment for upper extremity activity capacity, and suitable for use in the acute stage after stroke. However, when the highest score has been reached, the assessment needs to be complemented with other instruments.

Safety and efficacy of recovery-promoting drugs for motor function after stroke: A systematic review of randomised controlled trials.
CONCLUSION: Candidate drug interventions promoting motor recovery post-stroke were identified, specifically selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and levodopa; however, the high risk of bias in many trials is concerning. Drugs to improve motor function remain an important area of enquiry. Future research must focus on establishing the correct drug intervention to be administered at an optimal dose and time, combined with the most effective adjuvant physical therapy to drive stroke recovery.

Comparing memory group training and computerized cognitive training for improving memory function following stroke: A phase II randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Preliminary evidence shows that memory skills groups, but not computerized training, may facilitate achievement of functional memory goals for community dwelling survivors of stroke. These findings require further replication, given the modest sample size, subjective nature of the outcomes and the absence of objective eligibility for inclusion.

Comparison of accelerometer-based arm, leg and trunk activity at weekdays and weekends during subacute inpatient rehabilitation after stroke.
CONCLUSION: Increased focus needs to be applied on activities carried out during weekends at rehabilitation wards.
