The effect of theta-burst stimulation on unilateral spatial neglect following stroke: a systematic review.
CONCLUSION:: This systematic review found that theta-burst stimulation seems to improve post-stroke unilateral spatial neglect, but because the evidence is limited to a few small studies with varied and inconsistent protocols and use of terminology, no firm conclusion on effectiveness can be drawn.

Effects of robot-(Morning Walk ®) assisted gait training for patients after stroke: a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Compared with conventional physiotherapy alone, our results suggest that voluntary strength and balance of stroke patients with hemiparesis might be improved with Morning Walk®-assisted gait training combined with conventional physiotherapy.

Are the effects of internal focus instructions different from external focus instructions given during balance training in stroke patients? A double-blind randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: External focus instructions did not result in greater improvement in balance skill in stroke patients compared to internal focus instructions. Results suggest that tailoring instructions to the individual stroke patient may result in optimal improvements in motor skill. PMID: 30168348 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of combined intervention of physical exercise and cognitive training on cognitive function in stroke survivors with vascular cognitive impairment: a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: The combined intervention produced greater benefits on cognitive function compared to either training alone in stroke survivors with vascular cognitive impairment. PMID: 30064268 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Attention control comparisons with SLT for people with aphasia following stroke: methodological concerns raised following a systematic review.
CONCLUSION: Distinctions between social support and therapy interventions were eroded. Theoretically based language rehabilitation was the remaining difference in therapy interventions. Social support is an important adjunct to formal language rehabilitation. Therapists should continue to enable those close to the person with aphasia to provide tailored communication support, functional language stimulation and opportunities to apply rehabilitation gains. Systematic group differences in completion rates is a design-related risk of bias in outcomes observed. PMID: 29911416 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The effect of Tai Chi training on the dual-tasking performance of stroke survivors: a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Tai Chi training does not have superior effect on dual-tasking performance compared with conventional exercise among stroke survivors. Further studies with larger sample size, longer training, and follow-up periods are needed. PMID: 29783899 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Six hours of task-oriented training optimizes walking competency post stroke: a randomized controlled trial in the public health-care system of South Africa.
CONCLUSION: Results support the efficacy of a minimal dose task-oriented circuit training program with caregiver help to enhance locomotor recovery and walking competency in these persons with stroke. PMID: 29529870 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Treadmill training to improve mobility for people with sub-acute stroke: a phase II feasibility randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Treadmill training in sub-acute stroke patients was feasible but showed no significant difference in outcomes when compared to normal gait re-education. A large definitive randomized trial is now required to explore treadmill training in normal clinical practice. PMID: 28730849 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A randomized controlled trial of a modified wheelchair arm-support to reduce shoulder pain in stroke patients.
CONCLUSION: Using the modified wheelchair arm-support could lead to the mitigation of hemiplegic shoulder pain and reduction in pain incidence in stroke patients. It may also improve the patients' quality of life. PMID: 28629270 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Twelve month follow-up on a randomised controlled trial of relaxation training for post-stroke anxiety.
CONCLUSIONS: Reductions in anxiety in stroke survivors who received a self-help autogenic relaxation CD appear to be maintained after one year. PMID: 27932540 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Respiratory muscle strength training and neuromuscular electrical stimulation in subacute dysphagic stroke patients: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Adding IEMT to SST was an effective, feasible, and safe approach that improved respiratory muscle strength. Both IEMT and NMES were associated with improvement in pharyngeal swallowing security signs at the end of the intervention, but the effect did not persist at 3-month follow-up and no differences in respiratory complications were detected between treatment groups and controls.

Effects of training with a passive hand orthosis and games at home in chronic stroke: a pilot randomised controlled trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Both interventions were accepted. An additional benefit of technology-supported arm and hand training over conventional arm and hand exercises at home was not demonstrated. Training duration in itself is a major contributor to arm and hand function improvements. PMID: 26869596 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
