Can gait outcomes be predicted early after a stroke?
CONCLUSIONS: Clinical bedside assessments may be less important in predicting safe, independent gait than previously thought. Urinary incontinence and poor mental health should be addressed in the hospital. Increased utilization of reperfusion techniques may alter functional recovery patterns.PMID:35437107 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2064379

Sex Differences in Functional Capacity in Older Adults with Stroke: an Analysis of Data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study
CONCLUSION: Older women with stroke have clinically meaningfully lower overall functional capacity as compared with older men but decline at a similar rate over time. Walking speed was lower among older women with stroke, but similar between sexes in 5XSST.IMPACT: Women with stroke have poorer functional capacity compared with men, which reinforces the importance of targeted stroke rehabilitation strategies to address these sex-specific disparities.PMID:35689806 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzac077

Bicephalic Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation Does Not Add Benefits to a Footdrop Stimulator for Improving Functional Mobility in People with Chronic Hemiparesis after Stroke: a Double-Blind, Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSION: On the basis of the results of this study, there is no evidence that bicephalic tDCS improves functional mobility, spasticity, quality of life, or walking endurance in people with chronic hemiparesis after stroke.IMPACT STATEMENT: Bicephalic tDCS does not add relevant benefits to FDS and gait training in people who have chronic hemiparesis after stroke. Given that tDCS has few additional effects and given its costs for clinical practice, tDCS for rehabilitation in people with chronic hemiparesis after stroke is discouraged. FDS and gait training improve functional mobility, walking resistance, and quality of li...

Physical Activity After Transient Ischemic Attack or Mild Stroke Is Business as Usual
CONCLUSION: Information about the necessity to engage in recommended physical activity levels requires tailoring to the needs of the people with TIA or mild stroke. Helpful information in combination with support and strategies may guide how to navigate factors preventing engagement and might influence the low level of physical activity prevalent in this population.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1 available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A376).PMID:35727994 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000395

Italian translation and transcultural validation of an assessment tool for community ambulation in stroke survivors: the modified Functional Walking Categories (mFWC)
CONCLUSIONS: The Italian mFWC offers a valid tool for measuring community ambulation in stroke patients. Our work provides a validated and a cross-cultural adapted Italian version of the mFWC to accurately measure community ambulation both in clinical and research settings in Italy.PMID:35775498 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2094303

Effects of virtual reality in the early-stage stroke rehabilitation: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
CONCLUSION: VR is a feasible approach and demonstrates comparable effectiveness in functional outcomes with conventional rehabilitation in patients with stroke at the early-stage. Further research focusing on the application of VR in acute stroke survivors with adequate sample size, additional follow-up evaluation and valid outcome measures are warranted.PMID:35801290 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2094302

Secondary Analysis of Walking Activities during the Acute Stroke Hospital Stay and Cerebrovascular Health
CONCLUSIONS: Physical activity during the hospital stay post-stroke may support cerebrovascular health after discharge. Prospective studies are needed to support this finding.PMID:35910593 | PMC:PMC9327803 | DOI:10.1097/CPT.0000000000000196
