Spanish translation and validation of the Burke Lateropulsion Scale to measure pusher behaviour.
CONCLUSIONS: The BLS scale is valid and reliable for measuring pusher behaviour in patients who have suffered a stroke and is sensitive to changes after neurological physiotherapy treatment. PMID: 30560984 [PubMed - in process]

Comparison of Motor Relearning Program versus Bobath Approach for Prevention of Poststroke Apathy: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Apathy is a multidimensional syndrome referring to a primary lack of motivation, frequent in survivors of stroke. And prior studies have demonstrated the negative effect of apathy on recovery from stroke. Methods: A randomized controlled study of acute stroke patients. Four hundred and eighty-eight patients without evidence of apathy or depression at the initial visit were consecutively recruited, 258 males and 230 female. Patients were block randomized into 2 groups. Group A (n  = 245) and Group B (n = 243) had physiotherapy according to Motor Relearning Program and Bobath in the first 4 weeks, respectively.

Role of corrected-assisted-synchronized-periodic therapy in post-stroke rehabilitation
Conclusion: CASP therapy has a major role in post-stroke rehabilitation particularly in limiting disability, reducing post-stroke spasticity, and providing an improvement in major functional outcomes.

A Comparative Study of Conventional Physiotherapy versus Robot-Assisted Gait Training Associated to Physiotherapy in Individuals with Ataxia after Stroke.
Conclusions: Chronic stroke patients with ataxia had significant improvements in balance and independence in activities of daily living after RAGT along with conventional therapy and home exercises. This trial was registered with trial registration number 39862414.6.0000.5505. PMID: 29675114 [PubMed - in process]

Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation with Concurrent Upper Limb Repetitive Task Practice for Poststroke Motor Recovery: A Pilot Study
Invasive vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has the potential to enhance the effects of physiotherapy for upper limb motor recovery after stroke. Noninvasive, transcutaneous auricular branch VNS (taVNS) may have similar benefits, but this has not been evaluated in stroke recovery. We sought to determine the feasibility of taVNS delivered alongside upper limb repetitive task-specific practice after stroke and its effects on a range of outcome measures evaluating limb function.

Motor imagery: a systematic review of its effectiveness in the rehabilitation of the upper limb following a stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Motor imagery, combined with conventional therapy (physiotherapy or occupational therapy), seems to have positive effects on the motor rehabilitation of the upper limb following a stroke. Further research is needed to improve the heterogeneity of the interventions and to evaluate their effectiveness in the long term. PMID: 29480509 [PubMed - in process]

Effects of transcranial direct current stimulation on walking ability after stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: tDCS might have beneficial effects on improving mobility and muscle strength of lower limb among individuals with stroke. Future studies with larger sample sizes and an adequate follow-up period are needed. PMID: 29439362 [PubMed - in process]

Effective assessments of electroencephalography during stroke recovery: contemporary approaches and considerations
Stroke is one of the leading causes of permanent disability worldwide, relying conventionally on extended periods of physiotherapy to recover functional ability. While neuroimaging techniques and emerging neurorehabilitation paradigms have advanced our understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms underlying stroke, recent evidence has renewed focus on quantifying features of cortical activity present in electroencephalography recordings to greatly enhance our understanding of stroke treatment and recovery. This Neuro Forum article reviews these key advances and discusses the importance of quantifying electroencephalograp...

Female caregivers and stroke severity determines caregiver stress in stroke patients
Conclusion: Our study showed that caregiving burden was predominantly shouldered by females CGs. CGs faced physical, psychological, and socioeconomic burden. The burden was more evident in female CGs and in patients with severe stroke.
