Current Views of Scapular Dyskinesis and its Possible Clinical Relevance by Aaron Sciascia, W. Ben Kibler

“…The authors’ experience and scholarship related to scapular function and dysfunction support that scapular dyskinesis is an impairment that has causative factors, that a pathoanatomical approach should not be the primary focus but should be considered as part of a comprehensive examination, that a qualitative examination for determining the presence or absence of a scapular contribution to shoulder dysfunction is currently the best option widely available to clinicians, and that rehabilitation approaches should be reconsidered where enhancing motor control becomes the primary focus rather than increasing strength.…”

Biomarkers of Rehabilitation Therapy Vary according to Stroke Severity by Erin Burke Quinlan, Lucy Dodakian, Jill See, Alison McKenzie, Jill Campbell Stewart, Steven C. Cramer

“…When all patients were examined together, no imaging measure changed over time in a manner that correlated with treatment-induced motor gains. However, when also considering the interaction with baseline motor status, treatment-induced motor gains were significantly related to change in three functional connectivity measures: ipsilesional motor cortex connectivity with (1) contralesional motor cortex (p=0.003), (2) contralesional dorsal premotor cortex (p=0.005), and (3) ipsilesional dorsal premotor cortex (p=0.004). …”
