Daily Vibrotactile Stimulation Exhibits Equal or Greater Spasticity Relief Than Botulinum Toxin in Stroke
There are over 100 million people living with chronic stroke worldwide,1 20%-45% of whom are affected by upper limb spastic hypertonia (spasticity and hypertonia).2-4 Spastic hypertonia results in muscle contractions that resist voluntary movement and can leave the limb in a contracted position. Over time, spastic hypertonia leads to contractures that can permanently immobilize joints.5 In the upper limb, spastic hypertonia can impair hand use, dressing, sleep, hygiene, and comfort.6

Daily vibrotactile stimulation from a wearable device exhibits equal or greater spasticity relief than botulinum toxin in stroke
There are over 100 million people living with chronic stroke worldwide [1], 20-45% of whom are affected by upper limb spastic hypertonia (spasticity and hypertonia) [2, 3, 4]. Spastic hypertonia results in muscle contractions that resist voluntary movement and can leave the limb in a contracted position. Over time, spastic hypertonia leads to contractures that can permanently immobilize joints [5]. In the upper limb, spastic hypertonia can impair hand use, dressing, sleep, hygiene, and comfort [6].

The Association Between Sleep and Health-Related Quality of Life in Stroke Survivors
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends adults engage in a minimum of 7 hours of sleep per 24 hour interval to optimize health. Stroke recovery, with its foundations in neuroplasticity, is impacted by sleep. The purpose of this study was to examine stroke survivor data from the 2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), and to compare self-reported measures of physical health (PH) and mental health (MH) for those individuals who met sleep guidelines to those who did not.

Response to Letter to the Editor: Poststroke Fatigue at Admission is Associated with Independence Levels of Activities of Daily Living at Discharge From Subacute Rehabilitation Wards
We would like to thank the authors of the letter to the editor related to our article.1 They suggested considering the effects of sleep disorders on functional outcome, given that sleep disorders are frequently observed in patients with stroke2 and patients with sleep disorders sometimes complain of fatigue instead of sleepiness.3 We completely agree with the importance of assessing sleep disorders because patients with stroke can lack symptoms of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB).4 Regarding this context, we previously investigated the prevalence of SDB using a portable sleep-monitoring device and the effect of SDB on func...
