The efficacy of treadmill training on balance dysfunction in individuals with chronic stroke: a systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: This review recognized moderate evidence in favor of TT interventions in balance and stroke rehabilitation programs. With TT, intensity may be a more critical factor than specificity and may offer additional carryover to recovery parameters of postural control and balance, beyond gait performance. It is recommended that clinicians utilizing TT incorporate objective measures of balance to assess the potential for skill transference and improvements in balance. Higher quality studies and additional research are needed to denote critical parameters by which improvements in balance may be optimized. PMID: 286...

Effects of constraint-induced movement therapy for lower limbs on measurements of functional mobility and postural balance in subjects with stroke: a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that two weeks of treadmill gait training associated to home-based exercises can be effective to improve postural balance and functional mobility in subacute stroke patients. However, the load addition was not a differential factor in intervention. PMID: 28859603 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Sit to stand activity during stroke rehabilitation.
The objective of this study was simply to count the number of STS movements performed during the rehabilitation period of stroke patients using a physical activity monitor (PAM) and test whether being observed altered outcome. Methods Participants were medically stable patients referred for rehabilitation following stroke. Participants were randomly allocated to either wear or not wear the PAM for 14 days. STS ability and general mobility were recorded before and after. Results Sixty-one patients was recruited; aged 68.4 ± 13.15 years, weight 77.12 ± 22.73 Kg, Height 1.67 ± 0.1 m, within 9 ± 9 days of thei...

Delirium post-stroke: short- to long-term effect on anxiety and depression compared to effect on cognition.
Conclusion Delirium may not have a significant effect on the development of anxiety or depression after stroke which differs in its effect on cognitive function and functional status. PMID: 28938851 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transport mobility 5  years after stroke in an urban setting.
Conclusions Five years post-stroke, mobility problems were the dominant barrier reported when using transport modes. Individualized transport training is needed during rehabilitation to increase possibility to participate. Infrastructure and transportation planning should focus on older, women, and people with impairments to be able to facilitate the use of public transport and mobility.

Functional outcomes of inpatient rehabilitation in very elderly patients with stroke: differences across three age groups.
Conclusions This study identified the factors associated with functional recovery among very elderly stroke patients. Effective forms of rehabilitation for very elderly stroke patients that take these factors into consideration need to be investigated. PMID: 29457559 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of real-time gait biofeedback on paretic propulsion and gait biomechanics in individuals post-stroke.
Discussion Our results suggest that AGRF biofeedback may be a feasible and promising gait training strategy to target propulsive deficits in individuals post-stroke. PMID: 29457532 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A longitudinal study of computerized cognitive training in stroke patients - effects on cognitive function and white matter.
Conclusions While white matter microstructure related to baseline cognitive function in stroke patients, the study revealed no effect on cognitive functions or microstructural changes in white matter in relation to computerized working memory training.

The relationship between BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and functional mobility in chronic stroke survivors.
Conclusions Our results suggest that the Val66Met polymorphism does not predict long-term, functional mobility following stroke. This difference may be due to differences in model variables or a reduced impact of the polymorphism as recovery progresses. PMID: 29480080 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Reliability of intensity-based physical activity measurement using an activity monitor in people with subacute stroke in the hospital setting: a cross-sectional study.
Conclusions In hospitalized people with subacute stroke, the central tendency of intensity-based physical activity could be assessed with good reliability using an activity monitor. For reliable measurement, more measurement days are needed in those with dependent walking compared to those with independent walking. PMID: 29528279 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effect of intensive motor training with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on upper limb motor function in chronic post-stroke patients with severe upper limb motor impairment.
Conclusions The present results suggest that intensive motor training with low-frequency rTMS could improve motor impairment in chronic post-stroke patients with severe upper limb motor impairment and contribute to the expansion of the application range of this combination therapy.

Factors associated with 1-year mortality after discharge for acute stroke: what matters?
CONCLUSIONS: While age and NIHSS on admission are important predictors of long-term outcomes, factors at discharge - ambulation status at discharge and discharge destination - are associated with 1-year mortality post-discharge for acute stroke and therefore could represent therapeutic targets to improve long-term survival in future studies.
