Overall, trials of rehabilitation in the first 2 weeks after stroke are scarce. In the realm of very early mobilization, one large and one small trial found potential harm from mobilizing patients within the first 24 h after stroke, and only one small trial found benefit in doing so. For t...

In post-stroke patients, the function of cerebral cortex becomes impaired, while that of the spinal cord is preserved. Hence, the ability to generate information of the spinal cord required for walking can be utilized through specific movements to reorganize the cortex for walking [9]. The dysfu...
No statistically significant difference was found between telehealth interventions delivered and center-based supervised CR in exercise capacity (standardized mean difference (SMD) -0.01; 95 % CI: -0.12 to 0.10), weight (SMD -0.13; 95 % CI: -0.30 to 0.05), systolic and diastolic blood pressure...

In conclusion, BCI therapy is effective and safe for arm rehabilitation after severe poststroke hemiparesis. The correlation of the zALFF of the contralateral precentral gyrus and the zReHo of the ipsilateral cuneus with motor improvements suggested that these values can be used as prognostic measures...
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is not a new method and is widely used in stroke rehabilitation and exercise training [8, 9]. The significance of NMES in clinical application is mainly to improve the muscle strength of patients, increase the range of motion, reduce edema, reduce atro...

83]. We found a considerable range in group sizes used for behavioral analysis (n = 5 to 23) with analyzed group sizes often much smaller than initially reported, particularly in long-term survival and time course studies. Relatedly, the role of laboratory housing conditions on stroke ...
rehabilitation center (i.e. after entering the chronic stage, e.g., 6 months after stroke), 65% of patients are unable to integrate affected limbs into everyday-life activities [6], showing a need for further treatment. Phrased differently, the rehabilitative process after stroke depends on...
