TL;DR: If, in comparison with conventional care, services that offer people in hospital with stroke a policy of early discharge with rehabilitation provided in the community (ESD) can: 1) accelerate return home, 2) provide equivalent or better patient and carer outcomes, 3) be acceptable satisfactory to patients and carers, and 4) have justifiable resource implications use is established.

TL;DR: The prevalence of both insomnia and insomnia symptoms are considerably higher in stroke survivors compared to the general population and changes in insomnia prevalence over time are needed to inform clinical practice and to encourage tailored interventions that consider this symptomatology.

TL;DR: The intervention was feasible to deliver with excellent fidelity, and was acceptable to participants, and it is concluded that a full-scale trial to investigate efficacy is warranted.

TL;DR: Music listening interventions appear to be a promising approach to improving recovery from stroke and may enhance cognitive recovery and improve mood early post-stroke.

TL;DR: It is too early to recommend music listening as routine treatment post-stroke, available studies have been under-powered and at risk of bias, and accepting these caveats, music listening may have beneficial effects on both mood and cognition and the authors await the results of ongoing controlled studies.
