Identification of Disability Subgroups for Patients After Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSION: Five disability subgroups were identified for patients after ischemic stroke. The disability subgroups provide a common language for clinicians to organize the heterogeneity of disability after stroke.IMPACT: Using the disability subgroups, the multidisciplinary team might be able to improve the accuracy and efficiency of care decisions. The number of current rehabilitation interventions is indeterminable; these subgroups may help to guide clinicians in selecting the most beneficial interventions for patients based on subgroup membership.PMID:37172127 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzad001

The impact of cognitive function deficits and their recovery on functional outcome in subjects affected by ischemic subacute stroke: results from the Italian multicenter longitudinal study CogniReMo
CONCLUSIONS: The relationship between cognitive and motor deficits is increasingly highlighted and the recovery of executive functions deficits seems to contribute to motor recovery.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Our results suggest that the recovery of executive functions may promote the recovery of the functional outcome of the patient with subacute stroke. Future treatment protocols may benefit from paying more attention to the recovery of executive functions.PMID:37184413 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.23.07716-X

Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques for the improvement of upper limb motor function and performance in activities of daily living after stroke: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Evidence suggests that excitatory stimulation protocols are the most promising intervention in improving upper limb motor function and performance in ADLs. taVNS appeared to be a promising intervention for stroke patients, but further large RCTs are required to confirm its relative superiority.PMID:37245690 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2023.04.027

Cerebral Small Vessel Disease burden: An independent biomarker for anomia treatment responsiveness in chronic stroke patients with aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: cSVD, a marker of brain reserve and a robust risk factor for post-stroke dementia, may be used as a biomarker for distinguishing patients that are more likely to respond to anomia therapy from those that are less likely to do so and for individualizing treatment parameters (e.g., targeting both linguistic and nonlinguistic cognition in severe cSVD).PMID:37290492 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2023.05.008

User-Centered Mobile Applications for Stroke Survivors (MAPPS): A Mixed-Methods Study of Patient Preferences
CONCLUSIONS: SS are willing to adopt mHealth apps that are free of cost and provide technical support. Apps for SS should perform multiple tasks and be of simple design. Greater interest for the app's features among SS of color may provide opportunities to address health inequities.PMID:37295706 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2023.05.009

Test-retest reliability and responsiveness of the Computerized Adaptive Testing System of the Functional Assessment of Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest the CAT-FAS is an efficient measurement tool with good to excellent test-retest reliability and responsiveness. In addition, the CAT-FAS can be used routinely in clinical settings to monitor progress of the crucial four domains for persons with stroke.PMID:37419234 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2023.06.017

A Network of Movement and Proximity Sensors for Monitoring Upper-Extremity Motor Activity after Stroke: Proof of Principle.
CONCLUSIONS: The convergent validity of SERSMAA for measuring more-affected arm functional activity after stroke was supported in a simulation of everyday activity. PMID: 24080348 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Combination Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Virtual Reality Therapy for Upper Extremity Training in Subacute Stroke Patients.
CONCLUSIONS: In the present pilot study, the combination of brain stimulation using tDCS and peripheral arm training using VR could facilitate a stronger beneficial effect on UE impairment than using each intervention alone. This combination therapy might be a helpful method to enhance recovery of the paretic UE in stroke patients. PMID: 24239790 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Investigating measures of intensity during a structured upper limb exercise programme in stroke rehabilitation: An exploratory study.
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke survivors were not actively engaged in exercises for approximately one third of each exercise session. Overall session time may not be the most accurate measure of intensity. Counting repetitions was feasible when using a structured exercise programme and provides a clinically meaningful way of monitoring intensity and progression. Wrist accelerometers provided an objective measure for how much the arm moves, which correlated with purposeful repetitions. Further research using repetitions and accelerometers as measures of intensity is warranted. PMID: 24946084 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
