Tone-inhibiting insoles enhance the reciprocal inhibition of ankle plantarflexors of post-stroke hemiparetic subjects: an electromyographic study
Spasticity is a common sequela of upper motor neuron pathology, such as cerebrovascular diseases and cerebral palsy. Intervention for spasticity of the ankle plantarflexors in physical therapy may include tone-inhibiting casting and/or orthoses for the ankle and foot. However, the physiological mechanism of tone reduction by such orthoses remains unclarified.

Daily Treatment Time and Functional Gains of Stroke Patients During Inpatient Rehabilitation
Objective: To study the effects of daily treatment time on functional gain of patients who have had a stroke. Design: A retrospective cohort study. Setting: An inpatient rehabilitation hospital (IRH) in northern California. Participants: Three hundred sixty patients who had a stroke and were discharged from the IRH in 2007. Interventions: Average minutes of rehabilitation therapy per day, including physical therapy, occupation therapy, speech and language therapy, and total treatment. Main Outcome Measures: Functional gain measured by the Functional Independence Measure, including activities of daily living, mob...
