Advances in Stroke

چکیده
The past year has continued to see growth in stroke rehabilitation literature, ranging from important insights into the basic science of stroke recovery to broader multidisciplinary aspects aimed at improving global quality of life in stroke survivors. The areas that particularly stand out include 1) new evidence on old treatment strategies in clinical rehabilitation; 2) developments in the treatment of “neglected” impairments, such as hemianopia and sensory loss; 3) evaluation of the use of technology in stroke rehabilitation; and 4) advances in neurorestorative treatments after stroke. (Stroke. 2010;41:e88-e90.)

Neuroplasticity and neuromotor synergies in context of rehabilitation after stroke: a systematic review
Background: Alterations of neuroplasticity and cortical excitability are important pathophysiological factors in stroke. Modulation of the neuroplasticity has been proposed as an underlying mechanism of recovery in different neurological disorders. But it is not still clear how the CNS faces the complexity of muscle control. Neuroplastic processes may be used for the functional improvement of s...

متن کاملAdvances in open neurovascular surgery 2007.
We have read with great interest the Advances in Stroke 2007 subsection in February’s issue of Stroke and congratulate Dr Fisher for nicely amalgamating articles addressing some of the most pressing advances and shortcomings in stroke management over the past year.1 Although advances in interventional approaches to stroke and neurovascular disease were nicely outlined,1,2 we noticed little emph...
