The effect of frequency of feedback on overground temporal gait asymmetry post stroke
This study investigated the effects of augmented feedback during overground gait training, on TGA.METHODS: Eighteen people with chronic stroke were randomized to receive one of two feedback displays (A or B) and one of three feedback frequencies; no feedback (0%), after alternate walking trials (50%) or after every trial (100%). Display A depicted the TGA ratio as a vertical line along a horizontal axis with perfect symmetry in the middle. Display B depicted single limb stance duration of each leg as a bar graph. Participants completed 25 repetitions of 30 second trials with their assigned feedback (acquisition). Participa...

Adult Stroke Survivors Who Practice Tai Chi May Be At Reduced Risk For Falls
Tai Chi may reduce falls among adult stroke survivors, according to research presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2013. Compared to survivors receiving usual care or participating in a national fitness program for Medicare-eligible adults called SilverSneakers®, those practicing Tai Chi had the fewest falls. Tai Chi is a martial art dating back to ancient China. It includes physical movements, mental concentration and relaxed breathing. "Learning how to find and maintain your balance after a stroke is a challenge," said Ruth E...

National Stroke Registries: What can we learn from them?
Stroke is a major cause of long-term adult disability, death, and health care costs worldwide. This overwhelming burden on global health necessitates ongoing improvements in stroke management. Indeed, considerable progress in stroke care is evident nowadays, in part owing to better prevention and the increasing use of acute stroke units, urgent triage, multimodal CT- or MRI-based brain imaging, and IV and endovascular reperfusion therapy.

Testing devices for the prevention and treatment of stroke and its complications
We are entering a challenging but exciting period when many new interventions may appear for stroke based on the use of devices. Hopefully these will lead to improved outcomes at a cost that can be afforded in most parts of the world. Nevertheless, it is vital that lessons are learnt from failures in the development of pharmacological interventions (and from some early device studies), including inadequate preclinical testing, suboptimal trial design and analysis, and underpowered studies. The device industry is far more disparate than that seen for pharmaceuticals; companies are very variable in size and experience in str...

Cognition and major depression after frontal and cerebellar stroke (P7.133)
CONCLUSIONS: Results in individuals with frontal lobe CVA were consistent with previous studies showing associations between cognition and depression in other neurologic disease. Disconnection and disruption in brain regions involving both emotion regulation and cognition may explain these associations. Alternatively, or simultaneously, depression may transiently impair cognitive test performance after frontal lobe stroke. Study Supported by:Disclosure: Dr. Dulay has nothing to disclose.

Transcranial direct current stimulation facilitates motor learning post-stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is an attractive protocol for stroke motor recovery. The current systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effects of tDCS on motor learning post-stroke. Specifically, we determined long-term learning effects by examining motor improvements from baseline to at least 5 days after tDCS intervention and motor practise. 17 studies reported long-term retention testing (mean retention interval=43.8 days; SD=56.6 days) and qualified for inclusion in our meta-analysis. Assessing primary outcome measures for groups that received tDCS and motor practise versus ...

Brain stimulation and constraint for perinatal stroke hemiparesis: The PLASTIC CHAMPS Trial
Conclusions:
Hemiparetic children participating in intensive, psychosocial rehabilitation programs can achieve sustained functional gains. Addition of CIMT and rTMS increases the chances of improvement.
Classification of evidence:
This study provides Class II evidence that combined rTMS and CIMT enhance therapy-induced functional motor gains in children with stroke-induced hemiparetic cerebral palsy.

Moyamoya and childhood stroke: Catching up with Tyler and Ryan
Ryan (above left) and Tyler Earle of Winnipeg, Canada had a ticking time bomb inside their heads. Both boys have a rare brain disorder called moyamoya that had caused the arteries feeding their brains to become dangerously narrowed.
At first, they experienced only headaches. But then Ryan suddenly lost his ability to write, began having trouble with word-finding and became weak on one side of his body — signs he had suffered a stroke. He was diagnosed with moyamoya and had partial surgery, but a second stroke took away part of his vision and partially paralyzed him.
Ryan needed a second operation as soon as possible. By ...
