Virtual Reality Augments Movement During Physical Therapy: A Pragmatic Randomized Trial
Objective Virtual reality facilitates physical therapy via improved engagement. Although shown to benefit specific patient populations, such as stroke patients, it is less established in otherwise healthy adults and children receiving outpatient physical therapy. The primary objective was to compare total physical therapy–guided movement supplemented with virtual reality with physical therapy–guided movement alone without virtual reality. Design This pragmatic, randomized, crossover study compared physical therapy–guided movement supplemented with virtual reality with physical therapy–guided movement alo...

Immediate effect of standing and sit-to-stand training on postural vertical for backward disequilibrium following stroke: a case report
CONCLUSION: Standing and sit-to-stand/stand-to-sit training aimed at shifting center of gravity and subjective postural vertical in the anterior direction appeared to improve backward disequilibrium and correct tilt to the anterior direction for this participant. Long-term effects of the training for this participant were not determined.PMID:35152843 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2037031

Tuina combined with physical therapy for spasticity of poststroke: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Tuinas combined with physical therapy in the treatment of spasticity after stroke. Methods: Literature will be collected from the following databases: China Biology Medicine (CBM), Wanfang Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP), PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science; We will include randomized controlled trials of Tuina combined with physical therapy for poststroke spasticity range from the establishment to May 1, 2021. There were no limitations to the publication time, and the lan...

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...

Isotemporal Substitution of Sedentary Behavior with Moderate- to Vigorous- Physical Activity Is Associated with Lower Risk of Disability: A Prospective Longitudinal Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: Replacing SB with MVPA was associated with a lower risk of disability. These findings are helpful for establishing disability prevention strategies.IMPACT: These results suggest that feasible changes in daily behavior, such as replacing 10 minutes of SB with MVPA daily, might have a protective effect on disability incidence. Clarifying these associations is useful for developing disability prevention strategies and may help reduce the incidence of disability in community-dwelling older adults.PMID:35079837 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzac002

Postural Maintenance Is Associated with Walking Ability in People Receiving Acute Rehabilitation after a Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: PASS score is significantly associated with walking status at admission and at 3 months poststroke. The identified 9 items suggest possible interventions for acute rehabilitation.IMPACT: This study identified 9 PASS items that could guide clinicians in selecting interventions for acute rehabilitation.PMID:35079798 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzab309

Long-Term Rehabilitation Utilization Pattern Among Stroke Patients Under the National Health Insurance Program
Conclusions Besides personal factors, geographic factors such as urban-rural gaps and number of therapists were significantly associated with the utilization of post-stroke rehabilitation care. Furthermore, the influence of certain factors, such as sex, stroke type, and copayment exemption type, changed over time.

Sex Differences in Physical Activity in People After Stroke: A Cross-sectional Study
CONCLUSION: This study reported sex differences in the walking duration after stroke. Moreover, it found that women spent more time in low intensity physical activity than men. Our results will be useful for planning interventions to increase physical activity and decrease sedentary behavior after stroke.PMID:35036263 | PMC:PMC8752872 | DOI:10.1298/ptr.E10099

A Narrative Review of Alternate Gait Training Using Knee-ankle-foot Orthosis in Stroke Patients with Severe Hemiparesis
Phys Ther Res. 2021 Dec 6;24(3):195-203. doi: 10.1298/ptr.R0015. eCollection 2021.ABSTRACTImpairments resulting from stroke lead to persistent difficulties with walking. Subsequently, an improved walking ability is one of the highest priorities for people living with stroke. The degree to which gait can be restored after a stroke is related to both the initial impairment in walking ability and the severity of paresis of the lower extremities. However, there are some patients with severe motor paralysis and a markedly disrupted corticospinal tract who regain their gait function. Recently, several case reports have described...

Effects of kinesthetic illusion induced by visual stimulation on the ankle joint for sit-to-stand in a hemiparesis stroke patient: ABA' single-case design
Conclusion] Kinesthetic illusion induced by visual stimulation for a hemiparesis stroke patient affected the ankle dorsiflexion function, resulting in an improved asymmetry during sit-to-stand as assessed by weight-bearing symmetry values.PMID:35035082 | PMC:PMC8752272 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.65
