Research In Review

Research In Review

Welcome to the Research in Review. This twice a month service is e-mailed to members by The Neurology Section of the American Physical Therapy Association and archived in the Members Only section. The Research in Review was designed using Medline filters to extract high impact research articles related to the field of neuroscience, which includes areas of motor control, rehabilitation, clinical neurophysiology, and technology. Emphasis is placed heavily on articles published within the last four weeks, that cover issues related to spinal cord injury, stroke, balance and falls, brain injury, degenerative diseases, and vestibular rehabilitation. The list contains the full citation and a link to the abstract or full text article.

The Neurology Section recognizes the difficulty some of our members have with accessing research articles. Therefore, we have made every effort to choose recently published articles that are full text available through a link on PubMed or directly through the link on the Research in Review citation. To further facilitate your research inquiries, we also provide links to common search engines (below) that have full text availability.

Best regards,
