Neurorehabilitation Research

KEY FINDING: High-intensity locomotor training (LT) resulted in significant improvements in sagittal-plane joint excursions (hip and knee) compared to low-intensity LT.

KEY FINDING: Multiplayer modes generally improve game experience and performance compared to single-player modes.

KEY FINDING: Clinical and psychosocial attributes improved significantly over the 3 months post-discharge.

KEY FINDING: All patients recovered significant levels of nociceptive sensation below their original SCI (up to 16 dermatomes, average 11 dermatomes), voluntary motor functions (lower-limbs muscle contractions plus multi-joint movements) and partial sensory function for several modalities (proprioception, tactile, pressure, vibration).

KEY FINDING: VR interventions can improve motor functions in patients with neurological disorders.

KEY FINDING: The amount of spared white matter measured by MRI closely correlated with actual spared white matter (R2 = 0.8508) and BBB scores (R2 = 0.8460).

KEY FINDING: The CMS hazards of overweight/obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia are strongly associated with physical deconditioning and are common after SCI.

KEY FINDING: Significant improvement was observed in different cognitive domains after the combined therapeutic approach with VRRS training.

KEY FINDING: The journal published 105 papers in 2018, surpassing the number published in 2017.

KEY FINDING: AAT is clinically effective in promoting dexterity recovery and reducing focal disability in stroke patients with mild to moderate arm paresis.
