Paired vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) combined with rehabilitation achieves significant and durable improvements in upper extremity function, participation, and quality of life up to two years after chronic ischemic stroke, highlighting its
A multicenter randomized controlled trial reveals that integrating action observation with virtual reality significantly improves paretic hand dexterity in stroke patients, with benefits persisting six months post-intervention, offering a s
A comprehensive review of a multicenter RCT (Morone et al., 2026) demonstrating that exoskeleton-based robot-assisted therapy significantly improves upper limb motor impairment and clinical outcomes in the early subacute phase of stroke rec
A pivotal randomized clinical trial reveals that targeted training of the ipsilesional arm in chronic stroke patients with severe hemiparesis significantly improves motor speed and hand function, with benefits sustained for six months.
A randomized clinical trial reveals that targeted training of the ipsilesional arm significantly improves motor performance in chronic stroke patients with severe contralesional impairment, offering a sustained pathway to enhance functional
A randomized trial demonstrates that a 50-fold smaller, closed-loop vagus nerve stimulation (CLV) system is safe and significantly improves upper limb function in chronic stroke patients, with functional gains doubling during extended home-
The Phase II HiWalk trial demonstrates that a 43-hour high-intensity walking booster program is safe and feasible for chronic stroke survivors, yielding significant walking speed improvements for individuals who have already completed their
The TaCAS long-term follow-up study reveals that a simple, conversation-based intervention can sustain improvements in physical health and independence for up to six years post-stroke, highlighting the lasting impact of patient-centered mot
The Walk ‘n Watch trial shows that a structured, progressive walking protocol significantly improves endurance in subacute stroke patients, providing a 43.6-meter advantage over usual care without increasing serious adverse events.
The LAST-long randomized trial found that an 18-month coordinator-led multimodal intervention did not significantly prevent functional decline or dependency in patients with mild stroke compared to standard care, highlighting challenges in
Evidence suggests combined aerobic and strength training post-stroke yields modest improvements in fitness and function but uncertain long-term benefits.
This article analyzes recent findings on sociodemographic and geographic disparities in community-based stroke rehabilitation from the COMPASS trial.
Moderate-quality evidence from 14 RCTs supports combined immersive and nonimmersive VR with mirror therapy to enhance upper extremity function and hand dexterity in stroke survivors, though clinical significance needs cautious interpretatio
The ESTREL trial demonstrates that levodopa added to standardized rehabilitation does not significantly improve motor recovery after acute stroke, challenging its adjunctive use for enhancing neuroplasticity in stroke rehabilitation.
A randomized controlled trial demonstrates that combining high-intensity interval training with robot-assisted gait therapy significantly improves gait speed, balance, and lower limb function in patients with chronic stroke compared to trea
An 8-week cardiorespiratory exercise program initiated 2 months after ischemic stroke improved cognitive performance at 12 months, despite no significant preservation of hippocampal volume compared with control. The intervention was safe an
This study evaluates the lasting benefits of vagus nerve stimulation combined with rehabilitation for stroke patients suffering from upper extremity impairments.
A Canadian multisite trial demonstrated that the Walk ‘n Watch structured exercise protocol significantly improves walking endurance in subacute stroke patients during inpatient rehabilitation without increasing serious adverse events
