Effects of Unilateral Upper Limb Training in Two Distinct Prognostic Groups Early After Stroke: The EXPLICIT-Stroke Randomized Clinical Trial
Conclusions. Three weeks of early mCIMT is superior to usual care in terms of regaining upper limb capacity in patients with a favorable prognosis; 3 weeks of EMG-NMS in patients with an unfavorable prognosis is not beneficial. Despite meaningful improvements in upper limb capacity, no evidence was found that the time-dependent neurological improvements early poststroke are significantly influenced by either mCIMT or EMG-NMS.

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.

Continuous theta-burst stimulation may improve visuospatial neglect via modulating the attention network: a randomized controlled study.
CONCLUSION: cTBS of the left posterior parietal cortex in patients with VSN may induce changes in inter-regional RSFC in the right ventral attention network. These changes may be associated with improved recovery of behavioral deficits after behavioral training. The TPJ and superior temporal sulcus may play crucial roles in recovery from VSN.

A motor rehabilitation BCI with multi-modal feedback in chronic stroke patients (P5.300)
Conclusions:BCI accuracy is an objective marker of a patient’s participation in the task; 50% means that patient doesn’t follow (or cannot follow) the task. This patient’s continued improvement and high final accuracy indicates motivated participation. Most importantly, there was objective improvement in motor function within only 25 training sessions. We attribute these results to the conditionally gated reward from the BCI (inducing Hebbian plasticity), and mirror neuron system activation by the avatar.Disclosure: Dr. Guger has received personal compensation for activities with g.tec Medical Engineering...

Effects of Physical Activity on Poststroke Cognitive Function Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—We found a significant positive effect of PA training on cognition poststroke with small to moderate treatment effects that are apparent even in the chronic stroke phase. Our findings support the use of PA training as a treatment strategy to promote cognitive recovery in stroke survivors.

A Community-Based, Bionic Leg Rehabilitation Program for Patients with Chronic Stroke: Clinical Trial Protocol
This study will be a dual-center, randomized, parallel group clinical trial to investigate the impact of a community-based training program using a bionic leg on biomechanical, cardiovascular, and functional outcomes in stroke survivors.

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.

Predicting shoulder function after constraint-induced movement therapy: a retrospective cohort study.
Discussion A stantial part of patients with reduced shoulder function reached a level of satisfactory shoulder function after CIMT. Intensive CIMT training, comprising tasks that require both distal and proximal UE function, may increase shoulder function in patients with a potential functional reserve.

Three-Dimensional Balance Training Using Visual Feedback on Balance and Walking Ability in Subacute Stroke Patients: A Single-Blinded Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial
This study aimed to explore the effects of three-dimensional balance training using visual feedback on balance and walking ability in subacute stroke patients. Methods: Twenty-four participants with subacute stroke were randomly assigned to the experimental or control group. Each group underwent twenty sessions (30 min/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks).

Progressive Respiratory Muscle Training for Improving Trunk Stability in Chronic Stroke Survivors: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Stroke weakens the respiratory muscles, which in turn may influence the trunk stability; it is unclear whether the progressive respiratory muscle training (RMT) is effective in improving the trunk stability. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of progressive RMT with trunk stabilization exercise (TSE) on respiratory muscles thickness, respiratory muscle functions, and trunk stability in chronic stroke survivors. Methods: This is a pilot randomized controlled trial. Chronic stroke survivors (n = 33) who were able to sit independently participated in the tstudy.

Computer-Based Cognitive Rehabilitation in Patients with Visuospatial Neglect or Homonymous Hemianopia after Stroke
Objectives: The purpose of this pilot study was to investigate the feasibility and effects of computer-based cognitive rehabilitation (CBCR) in patients with symptoms of visuospatial neglect or homonymous hemianopia in the subacute phase following stroke. Method: A randomized, controlled, unblinded cross-over design was completed with early versus late CBCR including 7 patients in the early intervention group (EI) and 7 patients in the late intervention group (LI). EI received CBCR training immediately after inclusion (m = 19 days after stroke onset) for 3 weeks and LI waited for 3 weeks after inclusion before receivi...

Combined Aerobic and Resistance Training for Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Muscle Strength, and Walking Capacity after Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Cardiorespiratory fitness, measured as peak oxygen consumption, is a potent predictor of stroke risk. Muscle weakness is the most prominent impairment after stroke and is directly associated with reduced walking capacity. There is a lack of recommendations for optimal combined aerobic training and resistance training for those patients. The purpose of this study was to systematically review and quantify the effects of exercise training on cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength, and walking capacity after stroke.

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing and aerobic treadmill training after stroke: Feasibility of a controlled trial
Stroke has a high prevalence worldwide and projections indicate that this will increase.1 Most individuals affected by stroke commonly develop disabilities2 that are related with reduction of the physical activity levels3 and of the cardiorespiratory fitness.4 This has several impacts in the health of these individuals, and it is associated with an increased risk of being affected by other cardiovascular diseases.5 Aerobic training provides several benefits for individuals after stroke, such as improvement of the cardiorespiratory fitness,6 walking speed and endurance.

Effects of gait exercise assist robot (GEAR) on subjects with chronic stroke: A randomized controlled pilot trial
Improvement of gait ability is one of the primary goals in stroke rehabilitation.1 As a result, defining more effective interventions for increasing gait ability after stroke is essential. In recent years, robotic rehabilitation has been attracting a great deal of attention as a method for improving gait ability after stroke all over the world. The updated Cochrane review has shown that electromechanical-assisted gait training in combination with physiotherapy improves the acquisition of independent walking compared to gait training without such devices.
