upper limb paralysis and moderate spasm, accompanied with nonfluent aphasia when came to our department; and complained that his recovery had been rather slow for about two years. In addition to the custom rehabilitation, we applied a peripheral plus central rTMS paradigm to him, which included 3 sessions of peripheral magnetic stimulation to his paralyzed right forearm, followed by a session of high frequency rTMS to the bilateral sensorimotor cortex region. The total magnetic stimulation therapy lasted about 30 min a day, and was applied 5 days/week for 4 weeks. Results After 4 weeks’ treatment, the patient’s Fulg–Meyer upper limb assessment (FMA) score was obviously improved (from 27 to 37 points), and the spasm was largely relieved in his right hand and arm. Conclusion Peripheral plus central rTMS might be an effective treatment for motor dysfunction of chronic stroke patients.

[email protected] (R. Suksathien) Introduction/Background Predictors of functional outcomes of stroke patients are important for providing efficient post-stroke care according to the degree of impairment. The authors attempted to use the data that are routinely recorded in acute stroke care to determine long-term functional outcomes of stroke patients. Material and method This analytic study examined the longterm functional outcomes of stroke patients admitted to Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital with acute stroke between January 1 and December 31, 2015. We recorded patients’ characteristic data and functional level on admission using Barthel index (BI) score. Long-term functional outcomes were evaluated with BI score at least 6 months after stroke onset by telephone interview and medical records. The predictors of long-term functional outcomes were determined with stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis. Results Of the 907 patients, 191 (21%) died during acute stroke admission, 117 (13%) died after and 210 (23%) were lost to followup and could not be contacted. There were 5 variables significantly correlated with good functional outcomes after multiple logistic regression analysis. Subjects aged 55 or under, male, admission BI score 30–100, muscle power grade 0–1 and with consciousness problems had adjusted odds ratios of 12.56, 3.78, 3.33, 0.28 and 0.24, respectively. Four variables correlated with poor functional outcomes were impaired consciousness, age over 65, more than 3 comorbidities, and admission BI score of 0–30 had adjusted odds ratios of 4.83, 4.08, 2.39, and 1.89 respectively. Conclusion Long-term functional outcomes of stroke patients were associated with age, consciousness, gender, muscle power, admission BI score and number of comorbidities.

[email protected] (A. Hugues) Introduction/Background After stroke, standing balance is usually described as a predictor of functional recovery. Regarding literature, various type of physical therapy (PT) is used to improve balance. The aim of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the effects of PT directly focused on balance training (DFBT) and theses of PT indirectly focused on balance training (IFBT) on balance after stroke. Material and method Randomised controlled trials (RCT), without language restriction, until October 2015, assessing the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), the Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke, the posturographic parameters in static condition and measures of independence in activities of daily living were included. Two independent authors (AH and JDM) led this selection following the Cochrane recommendations (Hugues et al., 2017). Results One hundred and ninety-three parallel and crossover RCT from 9337 records were included, involving 8018 subjects [study sample: mean 41.5 (SD 49.7) subjects, age: pooled mean 61.7 (pooled SD 12.78) years]. A significant difference in favor of PT compared to no treatment was immediately found after the intervention for the BBS (DFBT: 7 studies, mean difference [MD] 1.38; 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.71; 2.05]. IFBT: 18 studies, MD 1.88;
