Bilateral vs Unilateral Arm Training for Patients With Stroke
We read with great interest the study by Renner et al,1 which compared arm cycle –based unilateral and bilateral arm training in patients with stroke who have severe upper limb paresis. The study concluded that both of the interventions improved upper limb function after training, and bilateral arm training showed significant functional improvement in patients with pure subcor tical stroke. To our knowledge, this is the first randomized controlled trial that investigates the relationship between lesion location and the efficacy of arm training, and we appreciate the author's contribution.

Status of dysphagia after ischemic stroke: A Korean nationwide study
Post-stroke dysphagia is a common symptom in stroke patients. It is known that 13% to 18% of patients have persistent symptoms of dysphagia until 6 months after onset.1, 2 Dysphagia increases the risks of aspiration, associated complications (e.g., aspiration pneumonia), malnutrition, poor prognostic outcomes,3 and increased mortality.4 Early detection and treatment of dysphagia in stroke patients are crucial to prevent adverse complications, decrease the length of hospital stay, and reduce the health-care costs.

Letter to the Editor on “Traditional Cardiovascular Risk Factors Strongly Underestimate the 5-Year Occurrence of Cardiovascular Morbidity and Mortality in Spinal Cord Injured Individuals”
Barton et al's1 article studies cardiovascular risk in a cohort of individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI). As the authors noted, the Framingham Risk Score (FRS) was derived to identify risk factors for cardiovascular disease. It is important to note, however, that the outcome measure for this risk score is defined as a “composite of coronary heart disease (coronary death, myocardial infarction, coronary insufficiency, and angina), cerebrovascular events (including ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stoke, and transient ischemic attack), peripheral artery disease (intermittent claudication), and heart failure.”2 This com...

Exoskeleton-assisted Anthropomorphic Movement Training (EAMT) for Post-stroke Upper Limb Rehabilitation: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Stroke is the leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide, and it places a substantial burden on healthcare services and the socioeconomic system.1 More than two-thirds of individuals with stroke have upper extremity motor impairment and functional deficits at hospital admission,2, 3 manifesting as muscle weakness, loss of coordination and abnormal synergies.4 Moreover, upper limb dysfunction leads to long-term limitations in activities of daily living (ADL) and social participation.5 Extensive studies have reported that participants can benefit from high-intensity, task-specific training programs based on motor-le...

The role of self-efficacy in the predictive relationship of motor ability to functional performance after task-related training in stroke: A secondary analysis of longitudinal data
Objective: To determine whether self-efficacy (SE) mediates or moderates the relationship between motor ability at pretest and functional use of the affected arm at posttest in task-related training for stroke.Design: Retrospective, observational cohort study.Setting: Outpatient rehabilitation settings.Participants: Eighty patients with chronic stroke.Interventions: The training was delivered to the participants for 60 to 90 minutes/session, 3 to 5 sessions/week for 4 to 6 weeks. The training involved specific robot-assisted, mirror, or combined therapy, followed by functional task practice for approximately 30 minutes in each session.

Suicide Following Stroke in the United States Veterans Health Administration Population
In the United States (US), suicide is a leading cause of death, and most of these suicides involve firearms, highlighting the importance of lethal means safety in suicide prevention.(1, 2) US Veterans experience a suicide rate 1.5 times higher than US civilian adults and are more likely to use firearms as the means of suicide.(3) Risk factors for suicide within this population include demographic factors such as sex, age, race, and level of education, as well as health factors such as smoking status, psychiatric conditions (e.g., posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD], depression, bipolar and anxiety disorders, schizophrenia...

Bilateral Arm Training vs Unilateral Arm Training for Severely Affected Patients With Stroke: Comments on Exploratory Single-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial
Renner et al.1 have published a clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of unilateral and bilateral arm training on arm impairment in severely affected individuals with stroke. We have carefully read the study and congratulate the authors for their job. They demonstrate significant improvements in the motor control of the severely paretic upper extremity following the bilateral training (BT) compared with the unilateral training (UT). We have many comments on the methods and findings in this study.

Race/Ethnic and Stroke Subtype Differences in Poststroke Functional Recovery After Acute Rehabilitation
Significant racial/ethnic disparities in poststroke function exist, but whether these disparities vary by stroke subtype is unknown. Study goals were to (1) determine if racial/ethnic disparities in the recovery of poststroke function varied by stroke subtype and (2) identify confounding factors associated with these racial/ethnic disparities.

Applying the Knowledge-to-Action Framework to Implement Gait and Balance Assessments in Inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation
The overall objectives of this project were to implement and sustain use of a gait assessment battery (GAB) that included the Berg Balance Scale, 10 Meter Walk Test, and 6 Minute Walk Test during inpatient stroke rehabilitation. The study objective was to assess the impact of the study intervention on clinician adherence to the recommendations and its impact on clinician perceptions and the organization.
