Differences in neural pathways are related to the short- or long-term benefits of constraint-induced movement therapy in patients with chronic stroke and hemiparesis: a pilot cohort study.
Conclusions The integrity of the affected corticospinal and non-corticospinal motor pathways was associated with CIMT-induced motor learning at least 6 months after CIMT. PMID: 29130404 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Being deliberate in postacute stroke: strategies to redeem the time.
Abstract Physical rehabilitation post stroke is key to minimizing impairments, restoring functional mobility, and returning individuals to their life roles. The reimbursable time allotted to attain those goals in the current health care environment is limited and is not projected to increase. It is critical, therefore, for rehabilitation professionals to re-evaluate how they use their limited time with clients. Repetition is the foundation for changes in representational organization of the motor cortex and for motor skill learning. Drawing from animal and human motor learning literature as well as completed clini...

Boosted Tree Model Reforms Multimodal Magnetic Resonance Imaging Infarct Prediction in Acute Stroke Clinical Sciences
Background and Purpose—Stroke imaging is pivotal for diagnosis and stratification of patients with acute ischemic stroke to treatment. The potential of combining multimodal information into reliable estimates of outcome learning calls for robust machine learning techniques with high flexibility and accuracy. We applied the novel extreme gradient boosting algorithm for multimodal magnetic resonance imaging–based infarct prediction.Methods—In a retrospective analysis of 195 patients with acute ischemic stroke, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, diffusion-weighted imaging, and 10 perfusion parameters were derived from...

Verbal feedback enhances motor learning during post-stroke gait retraining.
CONCLUSIONS: Addition of individualized verbal feedback (FF+PT) to a single session of gait training may enhance within- and across-session learning of targeted gait variables in people post-stroke, and merits more investigation. PMID: 32942960 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Progressive Cognitive Deficits in a Mouse Model of Recurrent Photothrombotic Stroke Brief Reports
Conclusions— Our results show progressive cognitive deficits in a mouse model of recurrent photothrombotic stroke. The presented model resembles the clinical features of human multi-infarct dementia and enables the investigation of its pathophysiological mechanisms and the evaluation of treatment strategies.

Intima-Media Thickness and Cognitive Function in Stroke-Free Middle-Aged Adults: Findings From the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— We observed an association between greater IMT and worse processing speed—a key component of cognitive functioning—at middle age above and beyond traditional vascular risk factors. Efforts targeted at preventing early stages of atherosclerosis may modify the course of cognitive aging.

Prediction of Tissue Outcome and Assessment of Treatment Effect in Acute Ischemic Stroke Using Deep Learning Clinical Sciences
Background and Purpose—Treatment options for patients with acute ischemic stroke depend on the volume of salvageable tissue. This volume assessment is currently based on fixed thresholds and single imagine modalities, limiting accuracy. We wish to develop and validate a predictive model capable of automatically identifying and combining acute imaging features to accurately predict final lesion volume.Methods—Using acute magnetic resonance imaging, we developed and trained a deep convolutional neural network (CNNdeep) to predict final imaging outcome. A total of 222 patients were included, of which 187 were treated with...

Survivor gives us a lens into regional systems of care for acute ischemic stroke in North Dakota
I just got back from the North Dakota Mission: Lifeline STEMI and Acute Stroke Conference in Bismark, ND. I had a great time and I learned a lot. I often get asked to speak in various venues about acute STEMI and 12-lead ECG interpretation, but for this conference they wanted me to talk mostly about stroke. That turned out to be a good thing because it forced me to read the 2013 AHA / ASA Guildelines for the Early Management of Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke to make sure I was asking intelligent questions during the panel discussion (which I moderated) and also giving accurate information for the class I taught about ...

Michelle is moving ahead after experiencing a stroke
In fall of 2014, I was a senior, excited about finishing high school in New Hampshire and heading off to college. But I could never have guessed what the year would bring. I was an avid lacrosse player and competing in my fifth game of a tournament when I started to notice I was having trouble seeing out of my left eye. Soon, my hand felt weird and I couldn’t grip the stick properly. As I sat on the sidelines, onlookers recommended I be taken to a local hospital. Recovering from stroke I can’t remember a lot of what happened next, but I know that the emergency doctors believed I had a stroke. They sent me to the Stroke...

Needs Analysis for Educating Community Pharmacists to Interface with Prehospital Stroke Chain of Survival
Conclusions: Community pharmacists surveyed were willing to interface with the prehospital phase of the Stroke Chain of Survival; nearly 75% of them required education to do so. Community pharmacies are potentially a venue for educating the public on the Stroke Chain of Survival. It may be necessary to approach community pharmacy corporate leadership to partner with such efforts.

Cognitive performance after stroke – The Framingham Heart Study
ConclusionsClinical stroke is associated with subsequent poorer performance in multiple cognitive domains. This association cannot be entirely explained by the individual's cognitive function prior to stroke or by concomitant vascular risk factor levels.

Cadagan: Humor and tenacity after a stroke
Most parents try to discourage their children from indulging in humor about bodily functions like burping. But for Daniel and Lori Hooley, a simple smirk in response to a belch was the sign they needed that their daughter, Cadagan, was going to be okay. It was 2012 and 7-year-old Cadagan was asleep, tucked into bed for the night. Around 11 p.m., she suddenly awoke — but it wasn’t because of a nightmare or a late-night request for a glass of water. Instead, she seemed limp and couldn’t focus. Then she began throwing up. Born with an extremely rare genetic disorder called trisomy 12p, the little girl had already experi...

A qualitative pilot study exploring clients' and health-care professionals' experiences with aquatic therapy post-stroke in Ontario, Canada
CONCLUSIONS: Health-care professionals and clients reported numerous benefits of aquatic therapy post-stroke including, but not limited to, improvements in mobility, balance, wellbeing, and socialization. Lack of formal and informal education and communication as participants' transition from rehab to community were viewed as barriers to aquatic therapy use post-stroke. Developing education material and communication strategies may improve the uptake of aquatic therapy post-stroke.PMID:36999561 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2195590
