Physical Therapy Combined with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy: Treatment Practice Considering the Effect of Reducing Upper Limb Spasticity on Gait
Phys Ther Res. 2023;26(2):44-49. doi: 10.1298/ptr.R0025. Epub 2023 May 30.ABSTRACTWe perform physical therapy combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in stroke patients with hemiplegia in the maintenance phase with the intent of improving the support of paralyzed leg. In gait evaluation in patients with hemiplegia, it is important to assess elements related to coordination carefully. rTMS therapy is effective in alleviating the tension of upper limbs. As rTMS helps upper-limb swing to become evident during gait, it makes trunk rotation necessary for left-right coordination appear more easily. As a...

The Stroke Upper and Lower Extremity Physical Function Measures Were Supported for Score Reliability, Validity, and Administration Efficiency for Patients Poststroke
CONCLUSION: The stroke upper extremity and stroke lower extremity PROM scores were reliable, valid, and efficient and had moderate change effect sizes for assessing physical function as perceived by patients poststroke with upper and lower extremity impairments. Scores had negligible floor and acceptable ceiling effects. Based on these results, the stroke PROMs are suitable for research and routine clinical practice.IMPACT: As item response theory-based measures, these PROMs support clinical practice guideline recommendations for the use of outcome measures in neurologic physical therapy and the administration of condition...

Maximal respiratory pressures: Measurements at functional residual capacity in individuals with different health conditions using a digital manometer
CONCLUSION: Although inspiratory and expiratory pressures at FRC were lower than measures obtained at RV/TLC for the five groups of health conditions, the mean differences between measurements at different lung volumes were similar among groups, which raises the discussion about the influence of the viscoelastic properties of the lungs on maximal respiratory pressure.PMID:37566990 | DOI:10.1016/j.bjpt.2023.100529

The development of a flexion range-of-motion-adjustable knee joint for knee-ankle-foot orthoses and evaluation of gait in healthy individuals wearing it
Conclusion] The proposed knee joint, when used in post-stroke gait practice using knee-ankle-foot orthoses, allows the gradual increase in the flexion range of motion of the joint as the weight-bearing capability of the lower limb improves, which would enable task-oriented practice similar to walking with ankle-foot orthoses as the next-stage target movement.PMID:37529058 | PMC:PMC10390036 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.35.608

Intrinsic motivation
Pract Neurol. 2023 Jul 31:pn-2023-003763. doi: 10.1136/pn-2023-003763. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe prevailing wisdom in neurological rehabilitation, and particularly for stroke, is that physical therapies are the key to improvements in function. Despite accepting the importance of 'the motivated patient', the lack of simple, proven ways to improve intrinsic motivation has hindered efforts to combine physical therapies with motivation. Now there is available a simple, free, well-validated approach to encourage intrinsic motivation ('Take Charge'). The benefits for people who had a stroke are well-established but this ...

E-135 Dejerine-roussy syndrome in the setting of right sigmoid sinus thrombosis: a unique case report
DiscussionThis case illustrates the important clinical aspects and physical findings needed to diagnose DRS. The presence of focal allodynia and hyperalgesia with recent cerebrovascular incidents provides significant evidence for DRS. The purpose of this case is to provide awareness and to increase clinical suspicion of DRS during examination, especially in the setting of cerebral venous sinus occlusion as infarction alone may not present as atypical allodynia.Disclosures S.

Differences in Skeletal Muscle Fiber Characteristics between Affected and Nonaffected Limbs in Individuals with Stroke: A Scoping Review
CONCLUSIONS: Of the limited available evidence, stroke appears to result in a shift to a higher proportion of type II muscle fibers in the paretic muscles. There are mixed results for effects on muscle fiber CSA, but there is some evidence of specific atrophy of type II muscle fibers.IMPACT: Changes in paretic skeletal muscle fibers of individuals with stroke may explain, in part, the substantial losses in strength and power in this population. Interventions to restore type II muscle fiber size may benefit people with stroke.PMID:37478464 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzad095
