About this Issue
Dear Reader,

In the March 2013 issue of JNPT we feature 4 research articles and 2 case studies. Duncan and Earhart report on the psychometric properties of the Four Square Step Test in people with Parkinson Disease, including its ability to distinguish between freezers and nonfreezers. Baltz and colleagues examine the use of a standing tilt table protocol in people with acute stroke. Canbek and colleagues report on the psychometric properties of the Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment in people with stroke. Doyle and MacKay-Lyons surveyed physical therapists’ use of aerobic exercise in adult neurorehabilitation in Canada. Borstad and colleagues describe behavioral change and neural reorganization after the use of a sensorimotor training program in people with stroke. Fritz and Baso describe the feasibility and potential value of a cognitive motor dual task training program in a patient with a severe traumatic brain injury.

Be sure to check out our new feature, author video abstracts. Watch a short video of the authors describing their work.

We also would like to thank our great team of reviewers and congratulate the Neurology section award winners.
