Relationships Among Perceived Functional Capacity, Self-Efficacy, and Disability After Dysvascular Amputation
Prosthesis rehabilitation after dysvascular transtibial amputation (TTA) is focused on optimizing functional capacity with limited emphasis on promoting health self-efficacy. Self-efficacy interventions decrease disability for people living with chronic disease, but the influence of self-efficacy on disability is unknown for people with dysvascular TTA. (Source: PM and R)

49th W. J. Zeiter Lecture, The Specialty of Hope: How Physiatry Made Boston Strong
The 5-year anniversary of the Boston Marathon Bombings (BMB) was April 15, 2018. It is hard to believe that this amount of time has passed, and yet, Boston has been joined by other cities and communities that have experienced mass casualty events in the time since. Unfortunately, there are no clear strategies to insure prevention, and so we as a community of caring individuals must learn to react and respond. (Source: PM and R)

Functional Outcomes of an Interdisciplinary Outpatient Rehabilitation Program for Patients with Malignant Brain Tumors
Malignant brain tumors cause significant impairments in function because of the nature of the disease. Nevertheless, patients with malignant brain tumors can make functional gains equivalent to those with stroke and traumatic brain injury in the inpatient rehabilitation setting. However, the efficacy of outpatient rehabilitation in this population has received little study. (Source: PM and R)

Myocardial Infarction Injury in Patients with Chronic Lung Disease Entering Pulmonary Rehabilitation: Frequency and Association with Heart Rate Parameters
Myocardial infarction (MI) remains under-recognized in chronic lung disease (CLD) patients. Rehabilitation health professionals need accessible clinical measurements to identify the presence of prior MI in order to determine appropriate training prescription. (Source: PM and R)
