A systematic review on extracorporeal shock wave therapy and botulinum toxin for spasticity treatment: a comparison on efficacy
CONCLUSIONS: A beneficial effect on spasticity was found for both treatments: evidence showed that ESWT and BoNT-A can ameliorate spasticity considering parameters such as MAS, MTS, AROM, PROM, UE-FMA, VAS and SFS in post-stroke, multiple sclerosis, and cerebral palsy patients. Further research is required to strengthen the evidence, and more suitable study protocols are highly needed.PMID:35412036 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.22.07136-2

Combination therapy with Repetitive Facilitative Exercise Program and Botulinum Toxin Type A to improve motor function for the upper-limb spastic paresis in Chronic Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
To promote recovery from a paretic upper limb after stroke, various rehabilitation approaches have been effective.1 Regardless of the kind of training, a previous neurophysiological study suggests that repeating identical movements is important for motor relearning.2 In accordance with that observation, Kawahira3 developed the repetitive facilitative exercise (RFE) program, which combines repetitive volitional flexion and extension movements with modified traditional neurofacilitation approaches.

“Poststroke Postural Sway Improved by Botulinum Toxin: A Multicenter Randomized Double-blind Controlled Trial”
We read the article by Kerzoncuf et al1 with great interest. We appreciate the authors’ efforts to assess the effects of injecting botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) into the lower limb muscles of people with hemiparesis post stroke. However, we have 2 concerns that may alter their conclusion.
