Community-based exercise programs have demonstrated potential for implementation in older adults; however, it remains imperative to ascertain whether this strategy will yield comparable benefit in stroke patients with dysphagia.Participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. Patients in the intervention group received swallowing function training in community public spaces for 5 days every week for four-week period (60 minutes per day). Patients in the control group received no intervention. Penetration-Aspiration Scale and Standardized Swallowing Assessment (SSA), depressive symptoms (Geriatric Depression Scale-15), and meal duration were assessed before and after all the treatment.
Stroke is complicated by oropharyngeal dysphagia in 29 to 81% of patients. Up to 40% of these individuals continue to experience swallowing difficulty even after a year later, which is associated with an increased risk of consequences such as aspiration pneumonia, dehydration, and malnutrition.

| swallowing function training | Behavioral | The group rehabilitation program comprised daily 60-minute sessions, five times per week for a duration of 4 weeks. The group rehabilitation program included: Rehabilitation oral and facial exercises, Game-based surface electromyographic biofeedback training, Participants experience sharing, Individual direct feeding training |

| Standardized Swallowing Assessment Scale | The Standardized Swallowing Assessment Scale is a commonly used tool for evaluating swallowing function. It is widely applied in medical and rehabilitation fields to assess an individual's swallowing ability and the smooth passage of food/liquid through the esophagus. The scale ranges from 18 to 46, with lower scores indicating better swallowing function. | day 1 and day 28 |

Penetration-Aspiration Scale was used to assess dysphagia under Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Study, primarily evaluating the extent to which fluid food entered the airway and caused penetration or aspiration during the swallowing process. As the level increased, the severity of dysphagia also increased.

| 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale | The 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) is a widely used screening tool designed to detect depression in elderly individuals aged 65 and older.Scores on the GDS-15 range from 0 to 15, with higher scores indicating a higher likelihood of depression. A cutoff score of 5 or higher is commonly used to indicate possible depression, although this may vary depending on the population being assessed and the purpose of the screening. | day 1 and day 28 |
