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

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...

Assessment of Walking Speed and Distance Post-Stroke Increases After Providing a Theory-Based Toolkit
CONCLUSIONS: Providing a comprehensive toolkit to hospitals with professional leaders likely contributed to increasing 10mWT and 6MWT administration during inpatient and outpatient stroke rehabilitation.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A390).PMID:35671402 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000406

Revisiting the Concept of Minimal Detectable Change for Patient-Reported Outcome Measures
Phys Ther. 2022 Jun 6:pzac068. doi: 10.1093/ptj/pzac068. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInterpreting change is a requisite component of clinical decision making for physical therapists. Physical therapists often interpret change using minimal detectable change (MDC) values. Current MDC formulas are informed by classical test theory and calculated with group-level error data. This approach assumes that measurement error is the same across a measure's scale and confines the MDC value to the sample characteristics of the study. Alternatively, an item response theory (IRT) approach calculates separate estimates of measurement e...

Post-stroke lateropulsion terminology: pushing for agreement among experts
Ann Phys Rehabil Med. 2022 Jun 3:101684. doi: 10.1016/j.rehab.2022.101684. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPost-stroke lateropulsion is prevalent. The global inconsistency in terminology used to describe the condition presents obstacles in accurately comparing research results, reaching consensus on use of measurement tools, agreeing upon a consistent approach to rehabilitation, and translating research to clinical practice. Commencing in 2021, 20 international experts undertook a Delphi Process that aimed to compile clinical practice recommendations for the rehabilitation of lateropulsion. As a part of the process, the pane...

Clinical properties of the 6-clicks and Functional Status Score for the ICU in a hospital in the United Arab Emirates
CONCLUSION: Both instruments demonstrate good responsiveness in adults hospitalized in the United Arab Emirates. The FSS-ICU exhibited several advantages in performance which suggests greater clinical utility than the 6-clicks. Minimal important differences were generated, which has not before been reported for the 6-clicks.PMID:35613651 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2022.04.008

Recent Advances in the Neural Control of Movements: Lessons for Functional Recovery
Phys Ther Res. 2021 Sep 29;25(1):1-11. doi: 10.1298/ptr.R0018. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTWe review the current views on the control and coordination of movements following the traditions set by Nikolai Bernstein. In particular, we focus on the theory of neural control of effectors - from motor units to individual muscles, to joints, limbs, and to the whole body - with spatial referent coordinates organized into a hierarchy with multiple few-to-many mappings. Further, we discuss synergies ensuring stability of natural human movements within the uncontrolled manifold hypothesis. Synergies are organized within the neural contr...

Gluteus Maximus Muscle Activation Characteristics During a Chair-Rise in Adults With Chronic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Despite apparent unilateral muscle weakness post-stroke, bilateral decreases in gluteus maximus activation magnitudes and compounding onset deficits of the paretic extremity were observed during chair-rising. Further research is needed to determine whether interventions maximizing bilateral activation magnitudes and improving temporal activation congruency during chair-rising will carry over to functional gainsVideo Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A387).PMID:35561104 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000404
