Healthcare circuits and functional outcomes 3 and 12 months after a stroke in a population-based cohort of 929 patients
In this study, carried out with an exhaustive population within a region and a one-year follow-up with few missing data, the results show a morbi-mortality after stroke higher than the one reported in previous studies. The results also confirm the better prognosis of IS.

Prevalence of self-reported stroke and disability in the French adult population: A transversal study
Discussion These results thus demonstrate a high national prevalence of stroke. Older people are highly dependent, irrespective of stroke history and the relative risk of dependence in young subjects with a history of stroke is high compared with those without.

Stroke management: Informal caregivers’ burdens and strians of caring for stroke survivors
Conclusion and recommendation Caring for stroke survivors put social, emotional, health and financial burdens and strains on the informal caregivers. These burdens and strains increase with duration of stroke, intimacy, smaller number of caregivers and length of daily caregiving. Therefore, informal caregivers should be involved in the rehabilitation plan for stroke patients and their well-being should also be given adequate attention.

Postural and gait disorders in subacute stroke patients: Lateropulsion is the key
Discussion – conclusion Lateropulsion, which is a sign of biased representation of the vertical, is a primary cause of postural and gait disorders at the subacute phase after right hemisphere stroke, explaining almost 80% of balance and gait disabilities. A greater attention should be focused on the assessment and the rehabilitation of the post-stroke lateropulsion.

Post-stroke spasticity and shoulder pain prevalence decrease over the last 15 years
Conclusions Disabling spasticity and shoulder pain frequency in recent post-stroke patients decreased over the last 15 years, and functional abilities both at admission and discharge improved. Confirmation of these results in a multicentric study may be important evidence of an improvement in stroke healthcare both in stroke and physical and rehabilitation medicine units in the last 10 years in France and could affect future estimations of the need for rehabilitation care after stroke.

Patellar tendon vibration reduces the increased facilitation from quadriceps to soleus in post-stroke hemiparetic individuals
Conclusions Patellar tendon vibration can reduce the facilitation between knee and ankle extensors, which suggests effective presynaptic inhibition but decreased post-activation depression in the lower limb of people after chronic hemiparetic stroke. Further studies are warranted to determine whether such vibration could be used to reduce the abnormal extension synergy of knee and ankle extensors in people after hemiparetic stroke.

The outcomes of stroke patients in health territory
This study conduces us developing a repertoire of stroke patients and sharing follow-up consultations between the different operators on the heath territory. It is extended to the neighboring territory, around the Narbonne hospital, linked with the Perpignan one, into a hospital association (GHT).

Is motor imagery really a window for studying stroke recovery at subacute stage?
Conclusion Caution must be taken to use motor imagery as a tool for monitoring stroke recovery because subacute stroke patients exhibit motor imagery deficits, independently of the severity of motor impairment.

Recuperation of daily activities and quality of life after stroke: The EAVQ-QdV scale
Discussion A single questionnaire exploring different cognitive domains, and comparing patients’ and caregivers’ assessments, with the evaluation of the emotional impact of patients’ and caregivers’ difficulties may permit to obtain a better estimation of residual handicap in stroke patients.
