Contributing factors and interventions for fear of falling in stroke survivors: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: This review suggests that the prevalence of FOF in stroke survivors is high and that understanding the factors associated with FOF in stroke patients can help develop multifactorial prevention strategies to reduce FOF and improve quality of life. In addition, a uniform FOF measurement tool should be used to better assess the effectiveness of interventions for stroke survivors.ETHICS APPROVAL: PROSPERO registration (CRD42023412522).PMID:38566465 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2024.2333172 (Source: Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation)

Defining tibial anterior muscle morphology in first-ever chronic stroke patients using three-dimensional freehand ultrasound
CONCLUSION: While the 3DfUS is a reliable method to define TA morphology and composition, its clinical validity needs further investigation into factors influencing muscle property changes across various age groups and post-stroke time points.MESH TERMS: Stroke; Skeletal muscle morphology; muscle composition; 3D freehand ultrasonography, Anterior Tibial Muscle.PMID:38563275 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2024.2333184 (Source: Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation)

Cardiorespiratory fitness, physical activity, and fatigue three months after first-ever ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke patients had lower CRF compared to reference values. Impaired CRF was mainly related to overweight. Higher CRF was associated with more MVPA and less fatigue. Exercise after stroke may be especially beneficial for patients with impaired CRF.PMID:38533786 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2024.2333191 (Source: Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation)

Turkish cultural adaptation, validity, and reliability of the stroke activity scale in individuals with Hemiparesis
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, which was conducted for the Turkish adaptation of the SAS scale, the 5-item and 1-factor structure was evaluated as a valid and reliable scale for evaluating the balance abilities of stroke patients living in Turkey.PMID:38536807 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2024.2333160 (Source: Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation)

The effects of kinesiophobia, fatigue, and quality of life on physical activity in patients with stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The study results showed that kinesiophobia and quality of life are important determinants of physical activity in patients with stroke. Combined evaluation in the clinic of motor findings and non-motor factors, which are often ignored, and the application of target-oriented approaches to these problems will make a significant contribution to the success of stroke rehabilitation.PMID:38529783 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2024.2333159 (Source: Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation)
