Randomized comparison trial of gait training with and without compelled weight-shift therapy in individuals with chronic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This study did not confirm that the effect of gait training combined with compelled body weight shift therapy was better than gait training alone on improving velocity and gait symmetry in patients with chronic stroke. PMID: 26545392 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Task-specific reach-to-grasp training after stroke: Development and description of a home-based intervention.
DISCUSSION: A comprehensive training intervention to improve reach-to-grasp for people living at home after stroke has been described in accordance with the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) reporting guidelines. The intervention has been piloted, and found to be acceptable and feasible in the home setting. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ISRCTN56716589. PMID: 26337625 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Group therapy task training versus individual task training during inpatient stroke rehabilitation: A randomised controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Inpatient group therapy task training for patients with moderate to severe stroke is safe and equally effective as a dose-matched individual task training therapy. Group therapy task training may be delivered as an alternative to individual therapy or as valuable adjunct to increase time spent in gait-related activities.

Identifying depression post-stroke in patients with aphasia: A systematic review of the reliability, validity and feasibility of available instruments.
CONCLUSION: A number of instruments to assess depressive symptoms in patients with aphasia are available. None of the instruments however, were found to be sufficiently investigated and most of the studies identified were of low methodological quality. Given the present evidence, the Stroke Aphasic Depression Questionnaire-10, the Stroke Aphasic Depression Questionnaire-H10 and the Signs of Depression Scale are the most feasible and can be recommended for clinical practice.

Effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on arm function and decreasing unilateral spatial neglect in subacute stroke: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: We conclude that rTMS might be effective in improvement in reduction of the unilateral neglect and motor function. PMID: 26254255 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Caring for continence in stroke care settings: A qualitative study of patients' and staff perspectives on the implementation of a new continence care intervention.
CONCLUSION: Patients (particularly those with severe urinary incontinence) described challenges communicating about and involvement in continence care decisions. In contrast, nurses described improved continence knowledge, attitudes and confidence alongside a shift from containment to rehabilitative approaches. Contextual components including care from point of hospital admission, equipment accessibility and interdisciplinary approaches were perceived as important factors to enhancing continence care.

Effects of additional, dynamic supported standing practice on functional recovery in patients with sub-acute stroke: A randomized pilot and feasibility trial.
CONCLUSIONS: In severely affected individuals after stroke, dynamic supported standing practice can be performed safely by trained helpers. In a larger-scale phase III study, a total of 116 patients would be needed to prove the preliminary effectiveness found in this study. PMID: 25952591 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Self-help relaxation for post-stroke anxiety: A randomised, controlled pilot study.
CONCLUSIONS: Preliminary evidence suggests that autogenic relaxation training delivered in a self-help CD format is a feasible and acceptable intervention, and that anxiety is reduced in stroke survivors who received the intervention. Future studies should seek to recruit a larger and more heterogeneous sample of 70 participants. PMID: 25780259 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Stroke rehabilitation at home before and after discharge reduced disability and improved quality of life: A randomised controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Early home-based rehabilitation reduced disability and increased quality of life. Compared to standard care, home-based stroke rehabilitation was more cost-effective. PMID: 25758941 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of interactive visual feedback training on post-stroke pusher syndrome: A pilot randomized controlled study.

The development and implementation of the structured training programme for caregivers of inpatients after stroke (TRACS) intervention: The London Stroke Carers Training Course.
CONCLUSION: The adapted London Stroke Carers Training Course provided a training programme that could be delivered in a standardised, structured way in a variety of stroke unit settings throughout the UK. The intervention was well received by stroke unit staff, however, the cascade method of implementation was not as effective as we would have wished. PMID: 25057000 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
