Retraining selective trunk muscle activity: A key to more successful rehabilitation outcomes for hemiparetic stroke patients
CONCLUSIONS: In our patients, the training for selective activation of the trunk muscles had led to a consistent improvement of gate analysis parameters, and hemiparesis-related disability in stance and activities of daily living.PMID:33967073 | DOI:10.3233/NRE-210094

The cardiac autonomic nervous system response to different daily demands among patients at the sub-acute phase post ischemic stroke and healthy controls.
CONCLUSION: Patients post-stroke experience hyper sympathetic function at rest and less adaptive cardiac autonomic control during different activities, which all may have an impact on rehabilitation outcomes. PMID: 29660948 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A single group, pretest-posttest clinical trial for the effects of dry needling on wrist flexors spasticity after stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that DN reduced wrist flexors spasticity and alpha motor neuron excitability in patients with stroke, and improvements persisted for one hour after DN. PMID: 28222554 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Dual-afferent sensory input training for voluntary movement after stroke: A pilot randomized controlled study.
CONCLUSIONS: DASI stimulates voluntary movement in patients, causes rapid activation of the cerebral cortex, and reduces excessive excitation of spinal motor neurons. Therefore, DASI, which stimulates voluntary movement, has a greater effect on brain activation in stroke patients. PMID: 28222553 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
