Research Tool Focuses on Most Recently Published Articles

All APTA members now have access to the main page and a sample issue of Research in Review, a twice monthly service e-mailed to Neurology Section members. 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 on articles published within the last 4 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.

Recognizing the difficulty some clinicians have with accessing research articles, the section has tried to choose recently published articles that are available in full through a link on PubMed or directly through the link on the Research in Review citation. To further facilitate inquiries, the page provides links to common search engines that have full text availability.
