Community integration and its predictors in people with stroke: a multicenter longitudinal study
CONCLUSIONS: The level of community integration of the participants was generally low, but it was greater at 1-year follow-up than it was initially. Balance function and daily living ability may be key predictors of community integration of patients following stroke.PMID:38659375 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v56.21372 (Source: Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine)

Effectiveness of a classification-based approach to low back pain in primary care - a benchmarking controlled trial
Conclusion: Although classification-based care did not appear to influence physical functioning, more rapid reductions in pain intensity and reductions in healthcare use and sick leave days were observed in the intervention group.PMID:38643363 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v56.28321 (Source: Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine)

Gait speed at the acute phase predicted health-related quality of life at 3 and 12 months after stroke: a prospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: Acute-phase gait speed was predictive of post-stroke HRQoL at 3 and 12 months, especially when associated with domain-specific EQ-5D-3L.PMID:38616713 | PMC:PMC11031874 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v56.24102 (Source: Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine)

Italian translation and cultural adaptation of the Agitated Behavior Scale (ABS-I) in patients with acquired brain injuries
CONCLUSION: ABS translation was produced by means of a standardized procedure aimed at minimizing cross-cultural gaps. The expert committee evaluated the version produced as highly understandable in Italian. Further steps, such as the subsequent validation of its psychometric properties, are needed to employ this translation in a clinical setting.PMID:38576089 | PMC:PMC11005175 | DOI:10.2340/jrm.v56.11663 (Source: Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine)
