Apathy mediates the association between age and cognition after stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Apathy may have a significant impact on the cognitive health of stroke survivors. Therefore, the early identification of apathy symptoms could facilitate consideration of potential interventions, such as multisensory and cognitive stimulation, designed to improve cognitive outcomes in this population.PMID:38153242 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2023.2297921 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Patient experiences of rotator cuff-related shoulder pain and their views on diagnostic shoulder imaging: a qualitative study
CONCLUSION: Patients commonly believe imaging is needed to formulate a diagnosis.

The context of the diagnostic imaging reports (i.e., what needed to be done) was perceived as more important than the exact meaning of the imaging findings. Patients felt that the diagnostic imaging confirmed their existing biomedical beliefs, and these beliefs were not challenged by their healthcare professionals.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONPatients with shoulder pain may believe imaging is necessary...

Craving inclusion: a systematic review on the experiences and needs of people with disability eating out
