Treadmill Oscillation Walking to Improve Weight Transfer During Gait Following Stroke
This study aims to determine the immediate and short-term effects of treadmill oscillation walking (TOW) exercise on hip and knee neuromechanics and gait characteristics in individuals post-stroke. It was hypothesized that compared to baseline, individuals poststroke (N=15) will show increased hip abductor and knee extensor muscle activity and torque production, …
Actimetry Monitoring of the Paretic Upper Limb in Chronic Post Stroke.
After a stroke, 80% of patients continue to have difficulty using their paretic upper limb in activities of daily living (ADL) despite post-stroke rehabilitation practices that aim to promote the use of the paretic upper limb. It is known that functional recovery depends on actual use (Use it or Loose …
Studying Anakinra to Reduce Secondary Brain Damage After Spontaneous Haemorrhagic Stroke
Spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (sICH) is the deadliest stroke subtype yearly affecting over 6000 patients in the Netherlands. Treatment options are very limited. Inflammation plays a vital role in the development of sICH-related secondary brain injury (SBI). Within 4 hours after sICH onset, blood components and thrombin induce the release of …
Regulating Blood Pressure During Recovery From Intracerebral Hemorrhage and Ischemic Stroke
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether blood pressure treatment regimens with spironolactone are better than blood pressure treatment regimens without spironolactone at lowering blood pressure in stroke survivors.
Effect of NMES on Balance and Fall Risk in Chronic Stroke
The aim of this study is to describe the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in the form of functional electrical stimulation (FES) applied to different lower limb muscles on reactive balance and gait performance in stroke participants. Methods: Twenty individuals with chronic stroke will be asked to perform an …
Effects of Minocycline on Patients With Ischemic Stroke Undergoing Intravenous Thrombectomy
Minocycline is the second generation of tetracycline. Because of its lipophilicity, it has high penetrance of blood-brain barrier. Animal model studies have shown that minocycline can reduce cerebral damage after ischemic stroke, and its mechanism involves multiple molecular pathways, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti apoptotic pathways, and protection of blood-brain …
Networked Drug REpurposing for Mechanism-based neuroPrOtection in Acute Ischaemic STROKE
A combination therapy proposed to be evaluated in this trial, consisting of three already registered compounds with a validated disease mechanism and with known safety profiles, targets key proteins in the dysregulated signal network in stroke, and is expected to synergistically result in post-stroke blood-brain barrier stabilization and neuroprotection. The …
Intra-Arterial Neuroprotective Agents and Cold Saline in Ischemic Stroke Intervention
Ischemic stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability in the United States. Endovascular intervention with mechanical thrombectomy has become the standard of care for acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke since multiple clinical trials demonstrated improved long-term clinical outcomes with treatment. However, despite high rates of successful vessel recanalization …
Wearable Devices Empowering Active Health Initiatives for High-Risk Stroke Populations
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the control effect of smart wearable devices on key risk factors in the high-risk populations for stroke
Effect of Supplementation With Creatine on the Recovery of Ischemic Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide. Most strokes are ischemic, caused by acute arterial occlusion. Post-stroke treatment focuses on secondary prevention and rehabilitation, but few treatments address functional recovery. Creatine, a supplement known for improving physical performance, may aid in the …
