Spouses of stroke survivors may be at risk for poor cognitive functioning: a cross-sectional population-based study.
CONCLUSIONS: Spousal caregivers of stroke survivors may be at risk for poor cognitive functioning. More work is needed to identify the processes that may contribute to the diminished cognitive capacity among these adults so that interventions may be developed to reduce caregiver burden and promote cognitive health.

Stroke Severity Is a Crucial Predictor of Outcome: An International Prospective Validation Study Stroke
Conclusions In this prospective pilot study, the baseline NIHSS score was essential for prediction of acute ischemic stroke outcomes, followed by age; whereas traditional comorbidity index contributed little to the overall model. Future studies of stroke outcomes between different care systems will benefit from including a baseline NIHSS score.

Cognition assessments to predict inpatient falls in a subacute stroke rehabilitation setting.
Conclusions: Cognition assessments, i.e., one FIM item, one RAVLT item, or a one-minute verbal fluency test are significant falls predictors. PMID: 32431244 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A multifaceted continuing professional development intervention to move stroke rehabilitation guidelines into professional practice: A feasibility study.
Conclusion: This study demonstrated the feasibility of assessing the impact of a CPD intervention in stroke rehabilitation uptake and informed the design of a research program aimed at increasing the use of stroke evidence-based rehabilitation interventions.

Modulating the Motor System by Action Observation After Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— We found that action observation activates specific motor plans in damaged motor circuits after stroke, and this activity is related to motor capability to perform the same actions. Cortical motor activity during action observation may be relevant to motor learning, and to motor relearning in stroke rehabilitation.

The feasibility of an acute high-intensity exercise bout to promote locomotor learning after stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: An acute high-intensity exercise bout that could be incorporated into a neurorehabilitation learning-specific session and results in substantial exercise-induced responses is feasible post-stroke. PMID: 29105605 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Error augmentation as a possible technique for improving upper extremity motor performance after a stroke - a systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: Most of the studies reviewed have significant methodological drawbacks that resulted in equivocal results. Therefore, we recommend that additional randomized controlled trials, with larger sample sizes and acceptable protocols be conducted to determine the long-term efficacy of EA training.

Efficacy of transcranial alternating current stimulation over bilateral mastoids (tACSbm) on enhancing recovery of subacute post-stroke patients.
CONCLUSIONS: tACSbm appeared to be effective for enhancing patients' functional recovery and cerebral hemodynamics in the subacute phase. The extent of recovery seems to be associated with the decline of the resistance in vascular bed of the main cerebral arteries. The mechanisms behind this effect should be explored further through research. PMID: 27145292 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Novel Screening Tool for Stroke Using Artificial Neural Network Brief Report
Conclusions—Our results show that ANN can be an effective tool for the recognition of ACI and differentiation of ACI from stroke mimics at the initial examination.

A short bout of high-intensity exercise alters ipsilesional motor cortical excitability post-stroke.
Conclusions: High-intensity exercise can increase lesioned hemisphere motor cortical excitability in a non-exercised muscle post-stroke. Our short and clinically-advantageous exercise protocol shows promise as a potential priming method in stroke rehabilitation. PMID: 31144609 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Efficacy of motor imagery additional to motor-based therapy in the recovery of motor function of the upper limb in post-stroke individuals: a systematic review.
Conclusion. There is evidence showing that MI associated with motor-based therapy is an effective tool in improving the motor function of upper limbs of post-stroke individuals. However, more studies are needed to establish criteria for frequency and duration of intervention, and what better type of MI should be used. PMID: 31264520 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Predicting Future Brain Tissue Loss From White Matter Connectivity Disruption in Ischemic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— ChaCo scores varied, but the most affected regions included those with sensorimotor, perception, learning, and memory functions. Correlations between baseline ChaCo and subsequent tissue loss suggest that the Network Modification Tool could be used to identify regions most susceptible to remote degeneration from acute infarcts.
