IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 12229: The Effects of Sit-to-Stand Training Combined with Real-Time Visual Feedback on Strength, Balance, Gait Ability, and Quality of Life in Patients with Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
This study aimed to investigate the effects of lower limbs muscles’ strength, balance, walking, and quality of life through sit-to-stand training combined with real-time visual feedback (RVF-STS group) in patients with stroke and to compare the effects of classic sit-to-stand training (C-STS group). Thirty patients with stroke were randomly divided into two groups. The RVF-STS group received sit-to-stand training combined with real-time visual feedback using a Wii Balance Board (n = 15), and the C-STS group received classic sit-to-stand training (n = 15). All participants received training for 20 min once a day, 5 days a...

Fluid Cognition Relates to Locomotor Switching in Neurotypical Adults, Not Individuals After Stroke
Conclusions: Individuals after stroke appear to have deficits in locomotor switching compared with neurotypical adults. The relationship between fluid cognition and locomotor switching was significant in neurotypical adults but not in individuals after stroke. Future work to understand the relationship between specific cognitive domains and locomotor switching is needed (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A361).

Effects of sling exercise therapy on post-stroke walking impairment: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Walking impairment is a common consequence of stroke, resulting in long-term disability. Trunk muscle strength has been proven to be associated with post-stroke walking performance. As a type of trunk training, sling exercise therapy (SET) has been widely used to improve the trunk function in stroke patients. The purpose of this systematic review was to investigate the efficacy of SET on post-stroke walking impairment. Seven databases were systematically searched for eligible studies from their inception to 1 August 2021. Review Manager 5.3 software was used for this meta-analysis. The overall quality of included studies w...

Explicit versus implicit lower extremity sensory retraining for post-stroke chronic sensory deficits: a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Sensory rehabilitation treatment by either ESR or IRE led to similar clinically significant changes in the performance of the lower extremity and participation in subjects with sensory loss post-stroke. Both treatment protocols are easy to implement in an outpatient clinic. .CLINICALTRIALS.GOV REGISTRATION: NCT01988220. Implications for rehabilitationStandardized, structured, sensory-focused training can improve balance and gait in subjects with chronic post-stroke sensory impairment.Both explicit and implicit learning-based sensory protocols focused on the lower extremity effectively improved balance, mobilit...

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
