The post-stroke upper limb improvement effort survey (IMPETUS): asurvey of individuals with chronic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Participants desired more arm/hand strength, function, and recovery that they perceived they had achieved. Impairment - level factors posed more barriers to arm recovery than socioeconomic ones. Most participants were interested in using arm/hand training devices; the most important device characteristic is functional gain. PMID: 31386604 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Development and validation of a quality of relationship intervention for stroke survivor-family caregiver dyads.
Conclusions: This study extends the limited body of research about dyadic interventions after stroke. The next steps in this line of research include feasibility testing the intervention and evaluating its efficacy in a larger trial. PMID: 31782683 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Cognition assessments to predict inpatient falls in a subacute stroke rehabilitation setting.
Conclusions: Cognition assessments, i.e., one FIM item, one RAVLT item, or a one-minute verbal fluency test are significant falls predictors. PMID: 32431244 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Topographical data analysis to identify high-density clusters in stroke patients undergoing post-acute rehabilitation.
CONCLUSION: This study revealed that in addition to functional status on admission, stroke risk factors are associated with recovery outcomes. Future studies using TDA to analyze omic data, including clinical, biological, and sociodemographic factors, will accelerate the development of personalized treatment plans in post-acute stroke rehabilitation patients.

United States version of the stroke driver screening assessment: a pilot study.
Conclusion: The US version of the SDSA battery has the potential to be a good predictor of driving performance of mildly impaired stroke survivors. Larger studies are needed to further establish its predictive accuracy. PMID: 23340075 [PubMed - in process]

Fatigue and pain: relationships with physical performance and patient beliefs after stroke.
CONCLUSION: Fatigue and pain are common after stroke and are negatively correlated with outcomes important to rehabilitation. Efforts focused on examining the impact of interventions on fatigue and pain are warranted. It is possible that changes to these body structure limitations could positively impact functional recovery and community re-entry after stroke. PMID: 23893834 [PubMed - in process]

Prosopagnosia after stroke: potentials for impairment and treatment.
Abstract The ability to recognize and identify people and determine how they may be feeling from looking at their faces is an important skill that people normally achieve effortlessly in infancy. Effective face recognition skills remain essential for social competence throughout the life course. A major cause of impairment in face processing, conventionally known as prosopagnosia, is stroke. In this article, the potentials for acquired prosopagnosia after stroke are examined. The incidence of prosopagnosia after stroke is difficult to establish, but in one clinical sample about half of those who survived a right h...

Aphasia and swallowing problems in subjects with incident stroke in rural northern Tanzania: a case-control study.
Conclusions: This is the first attempt to describe aphasia incidence in a sub-Saharan African language. Further work on the psychometric properties of the screening instrument is warranted. Given that it delivers a relatively coarse indication of language disturbance, it is likely that incidence of aphasia in the current cohort is underestimated. PMID: 24521840 [PubMed - in process]

Activity of thigh muscles during static and dynamic stances in stroke patients: a pilot case-control study.
Conclusions: The vastus medialis, rectus femoris, and biceps femoris muscles on the affected side and the rectus femoris muscle on the unaffected side of stroke patients are involved in the static balance deficits, while the biceps femoris on the affected side influences dynamic balance control.

Feasibility and outcomes of a community-based, pedometer-monitored walking program in chronic stroke: a pilot study.
Conclusions: This study represents a preliminary step in determining the effectiveness of pedometer-based interventions for enhancing physical activity in persons with chronic stroke. Further study is warranted. PMID: 24710970 [PubMed - in process]

Impact of BDNF -196 g≯a and BDNF -270 c≯t polymorphisms on stroke rehabilitation outcome: sex and age differences.
Conclusions:BDNF -196 G≯A polymorphism might affect functional outcome of stroke rehabilitation, but this hypothesis needs further verification. PMID: 24722042 [PubMed - in process]

Task matters: influence of different cognitive tasks on cognitive-motor interference during dual-task walking in chronic stroke survivors.
CONCLUSIONS: CMI pattern in chronic stroke survivors differs significantly with type of cognitive task. Gradual cognitive decline with chronicity of condition might have a role in altering the CMI pattern in this population. Future studies of DT interventions for stroke survivors might benefit from incorporating working memory tasks in their protocols. PMID: 25150667 [PubMed - in process]

Kinesthetic taping improves walking function in patients with stroke: a pilot cohort study.
CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that kinesthetic taping of the anterior thigh and knee provides an immediate improvement in walking function in patients with stroke. Such a positive effect on motor function could be a valuable adjunct in physical therapy and rehabilitation of patients with stroke. PMID: 25467397 [PubMed - in process]

Efficiency of unimanual and bimanual reach in persons with and without stroke.
CONCLUSION: Motor efficiency of the unimpaired upper extremity may be adversely influenced when yoked with the impaired limb during symmetrical simple movements in persons with stroke. As such, motor efficiency is not exclusively limited to the impaired side, the effects of which may be task dependent. PMID: 25776121 [PubMed - in process]
