The Impact of Comprehensive Stroke Care Capacity on the Hospital Volume of Stroke Interventions: A Nationwide Study in Japan: J-ASPECT Study
We examined the effect of hospital characteristics, having a t-PA protocol, and the number of fulfilled CSC items (total CSC score) on the hospital volume of t-PA infusion, removal of intracerebral hemorrhage, and coiling and clipping of intracranial aneurysms performed in 2009.Results: Approximately 55% of hospitals responded to the survey. Facilities with t-PA protocols (85%) had a significantly higher likelihood of having 23 CSC items, for example, personnel (eg, neurosurgeons: 97.3% versus 66.1% and neurologists: 51.3% versus 27.7%), diagnostic (eg, digital cerebral angiography: 87.4% versus 43.2%), specific expertise...

Outcomes in People after Stroke Attending an Adapted Cardiac Rehabilitation Exercise Program: Does Time from Stroke Make a Difference?
The objectives of the present study are (1) to evaluate the effects of a CRP in participants with motor impairment after stroke and (2) to explore the effects of elapsed time from stroke on physiological/quality-of-life outcomes.Methods: The CRP included 24 weeks of resistance and aerobic training. Primary outcomes in 120 participants, 25.4 ± 42.3 (mean ± standard deviation) months after stroke, included 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), VO2peak, timed repeated sit-to-stand performance, and affected-side isometric knee extensor strength (IKES). Secondary measures included gait characteristics (cadence, step lengths, an...

Aerobic Training Efficacy in Inflammation, Neurotrophins, and Function in Chronic Stroke Persons: A Randomized Controlled Trial Protocol
Background: Neuroinflammation is an important part of stroke pathophysiology and has both detrimental and beneficial effects after stroke. Besides that the enhancement of neurotrophins seems to be related to improvements in stroke recovery. Evidences suggest that exercise plays a role in modulating anti-inflammatory and neurotrophic effects. However, little is known about its impact in stroke survivors, mainly in chronic stroke. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of moderate-intensity treadmill exercise in changing inflammatory mediators, interleukin-6 (IL-6), soluble tumor necrosis factor receptors I...

Therapeutic Effects of Diagonal-Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Functional Recovery in Acute Stroke: A Pilot Study
The amount of spontaneous motor recovery of the paretic upper extremity in stroke is relatively fixed, and accounts for approximately 70% of maximal potential recovery within the first 6 months after stroke onset.1,2 Peak neurologic recovery from stroke occurs within the first 3 months, and continues at a slower pace for at least 6 months.3 Therefore, the effects of early training at 1 –2 weeks after stroke onset exceeds the effects of delayed training in terms of functional recovery in both animals and humans,4–6 and initiating rehabilitative training 5 or more days after stroke is mostly beneficial and has no adverse effects.

Effect of task-based bilateral arm training on upper limb recovery after stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Stroke continuous to be the second leading cause of death and the third most common cause of disability worldwide.1,2 Global prevalence showed that 101.5 million people were affected by a stroke in 2019. Among them, 6.6 million deaths were caused by stroke.3 There are 13.7 million new cases of stroke every year worldwide.4 The probability of upper limb recovery is less than 15 per cent.5 Therefore, upper limb impairment interferes with everyday independent activities.6 Although stroke rehabilitation recommendations provide therapeutic strategies to help recover the impaired limb, the rate of upper limb recovery in rehabili...

Resistive Training Improves Insulin Sensitivity after Stroke
This study determined the effects of unilateral resistive training (RT) of both the paretic and nonparetic legs on insulin sensitivity in stroke survivors.Methods: We studied 10 participants (mean age 65 ± 2 years; mean body mass index 27 ± 4 kg/m2) with hemiparetic gait after remote (>6 months) ischemic stroke. All subjects underwent 1-repetition maximum (1-RM) strength testing, 9 had an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and 7 completed a 2-hour hyperglycemic clamp (with glucose elevation targeted at 98 mg/dL above baseline fasting level) before and after 12 weeks (3×/week) of progressive, high repetition, high-i...

Organisational survey for acute stroke care in Vietnam: Regional Collaboration Programme
Low-middle income countries, such as Vietnam have a greater burden from stroke than high-income countries. Few health professionals have stroke specialist training, and the quality of care may vary between hospitals. To support improvements to stroke care, we aimed to gain a better understanding of the resources available in hospitals in Vietnam to manage acute stroke.

The Application of Cycling and Cycling Combined with Feedback in the Rehabilitation of Stroke Patients: A Review
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disabilities, such as hemiparesis, inability to walk without assistance, and dependence of others in the activities of daily living. Motor function rehabilitation after stroke demands for methods oriented to the recovery of the walking capacity. Because of the similarities with walking, cycling leg exercise may present a solution to this problem. The aim of this article is to review the state of the art applications of cycling leg exercise as a (1) motor function rehabilitation method and an (2) aerobic training method for stroke patients as well as the commonly used (3) assessment tools.

Higher Treadmill Training Intensity to Address Functional Aerobic Impairment after Stroke
Peak aerobic capacity (VO2 peak) is severely worsened after disabling stroke, having serious implications for function, metabolism, and ongoing cardiovascular risk. Work from our laboratory and others has previously shown that modest improvements in VO2 peak are possible in stroke participants with aerobic exercise training. The purpose of the current investigation was to test the extent to which greater enhancements in VO2 peak after stroke are possible using a treadmill protocol with far greater emphasis on intensity progression compared with a protocol without such emphasis.

Strength Training for Skeletal Muscle Endurance after Stroke
Initial studies support the use of strength training (ST) as a safe and effective intervention after stroke. Our previous work shows that relatively aggressive, higher intensity ST translates into large effect sizes for paretic and non-paretic leg muscle volume, myostatin expression, and maximum strength post-stroke. An unanswered question pertains to how our unique ST model for stroke impacts skeletal muscle endurance (SME). Thus, we now report on ST-induced adaptation in the ability to sustain isotonic muscle contraction.

The Energy Cost of Steady State Physical Activity in Acute Stroke
Cardiorespiratory fitness levels are very low after stroke, indicating that the majority of stroke survivors are unable to independently perform daily activities. Physical fitness training improves exercise capacity poststroke; however, the optimal timing and intensity of training is unclear. Understanding the energy cost of steady-state activity is necessary to guide training prescription early poststroke. We aimed to determine if acute stroke survivors can reach steady state (oxygen-uptake variability ≤2.0 mL O2/kg/min) during physical activity and if the energy cost of steady state activity differs from healthy controls.
