Immersive Virtual Reality in Post-Stroke Rehabilitation: A Systematic Review

Andrea Demeco et al.

Summary: In recent years, new technologies, such as fully immersive virtual reality (FIVR), have been applied in stroke rehabilitation alongside conventional techniques. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of FIVR in stroke rehabilitation. A total of 12 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 350 post-acute and chronic stroke survivors were included, and the results showed that FIVR provides additional benefits compared to standard rehabilitation, improving upper limb dexterity, gait performance, and dynamic balance, and influencing patient independence. Therefore, FIVR represents a versatile rehabilitation tool that can improve treatment compliance and the functioning and quality of life of stroke survivors.

Literature review of stroke assessment for upper-extremity physical function via EEG, EMG, kinematic, and kinetic measurements and their reliability

Rene M. M. Maura et al.

Summary: This paper reviews sensor-based measures and metrics for upper-limb biomechanical and electrophysiological assessment in movement therapy, which have been shown to correlate with clinical test outcomes. A total of 60 articles were identified, and some metrics were found to have good to excellent reliability and provide a finer resolution compared to discrete clinical assessment tests. EEG power features also demonstrated good to excellent reliability for populations at various stages of stroke recovery. Further research is needed to evaluate metrics lacking reliability information and selecting appropriate analysis methods.

Kinect-Based Assessment of Lower Limbs during Gait in Post-Stroke Hemiplegic Patients: A Narrative Review

Serena Cerfoglio et al.

Summary: This review provides an overview of the current state of the utilization of Microsoft Kinect camera as a tool for assessing gait in post-stroke individuals. The studies reviewed have explored the potential, accuracy, and effectiveness of this 3D optical sensor in evaluating gait parameters in various pathologies. However, due to the heterogeneity in participants, measures, methodologies, and study purposes, it is challenging to compare the findings and determine the strengths and weaknesses of this technology in the post-stroke population.

I can see my virtual body in a mirror: The role of visual perspective in changing implicit racial attitudes using virtual reality

Maddalena Marini et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shown that virtual reality (VR) is an effective tool for changing implicit attitudes towards outgroup members. This study extends this work by investigating the conditions under which VR is effective in changing implicit racial attitudes. The results suggest that when white participants were embodied in a black avatar compared to a white avatar, their implicit pro-white attitudes decreased only when they could see their virtual body both from a first-person perspective and in a mirror.
