Mental health outcomes in children with acquired dystonia after basal ganglia stroke and associations with cognitive and motor outcomes.
The objective of this study was to explore mental health outcomes in children with basal ganglia stroke and to determine whether children with post-stroke dystonia experience additional mental health difficulties. We also examined associations between mental health, cognitive, and motor outcomes. Participants were 75 children with stroke involving the basal ganglia and/or thalamus (dystonia n = 24, no dystonia n = 51). Results supported the presence of greater levels of anxiety and depression symptoms in children with post-stroke dystonia after stroke relative to those with similar patterns of stroke, but no dystonia. Th...

Complications after stroke : Clinical challenges in stroke aftercare.
CONCLUSION: The wide spectrum of secondary complications after a stroke constitutes a complex, sustained and multidisciplinary challenge, which requires a cross-sectoral interaction of various and numerous actors in outpatient poststroke care. PMID: 32914296 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Stroke Care during the COVID-19 Pandemic: International Expert Panel Review
This study, prepared by a large international panel of stroke experts, assesses the rapidly growing research and personal experience with COVID-19 stroke and offers recommendations for stroke management in this challenging new setting: modifications needed for prehospital emergency rescue and hyperacute care; inpatient intensive or stroke units; posthospitalization rehabilitation; follow-up including at-risk family and community; and multispecialty departmental developments in the allied professions.Summary: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 uses spike proteins binding to tissue angiotensin-converting enz...

Association Between Stroke Characteristics and Post-Stroke Fatigue: A Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: Our meta-analysis indicated that PSF was closely relevant to stroke type and had no significant relationship with stroke location. However, the findings should be interpreted cautiously. Thus, we suggest an updated meta-analysis on this subject when more comprehensive studies that explore the above issue are available.

A qualitative study exploring how stroke survivors' expectations and understanding of stroke Early Supported Discharge shaped their experience and engagement with the service
CONCLUSIONS: Ensuring stroke survivors are fully informed about ESD and what to expect, optimises engagement with the services, improves experience and could enhance outcomes.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONInforming stroke survivors about what to expect from ESD services could optimise engagement and improve their experience.The provision of personalised and target focussed therapy at home improves stroke survivors' experience and could potentially accelerate recovery.Preparing stroke survivors early for discharge from ESD can reduce anxiety and enhance engagement with the service.PMID:35895746 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2022.2102251

Predicting new-onset post-stroke depression from real-world data using machine learning algorithm
DiscussionMachine learning models can provide as potential predictive tools for PSD and important factors are identified to alert clinicians for early detection of depression in high-risk stroke patients.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) for stroke recovery.
CONCLUSIONS SSRIs appeared to improve dependence, disability, neurological impairment, anxiety and depression after stroke, but there was heterogeneity between trials and methodological limitations in a substantial proportion of the trials. Large, well-designed trials are now needed to determine whether SSRIs should be given routinely to patients with stroke. PMID: 23903272 [PubMed - in process]

Topographic sleep EEG changes in the acute and chronic stage of hemispheric stroke.
Abstract After stroke, the injured brain undergoes extensive reorganization and reconnection. Sleep may play a role in synaptic plasticity underlying stroke recovery. To test this hypothesis, we investigated topographic sleep electroencephalographic characteristics, as a measure of brain reorganization, in the acute and chronic stages after hemispheric stroke. We studied eight patients with unilateral stroke in the supply territory of the middle cerebral artery and eight matched controls. All subjects underwent a detailed clinical examination including assessment of stroke severity, sleep habits and disturbances, ...

Factors associated with community ambulation in chronic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Balance self-efficacy may be a significant determinant in the attainment of independent community ambulation post-stroke. This suggests that physical aspects such as gait speed and walking balance should not be considered in isolation when addressing community ambulation post-stroke. Implications for Rehabilitation Balance self-efficacy may play a significant role in the attainment of independent community ambulation in a chronic stroke population. Physiotherapy interventions addressing community ambulation post-stroke should consider methods for improving balance self-efficacy in chronic stroke, such as self m...

Prefrontal Cortex Stroke Induces Delayed Impairment in Spatial Memory.
Abstract Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability. Little is known about the effects of stroke on cognitive deficits. The subtle nature of cognition and its respective domains in areas such as working memory and attention can make this difficult to diagnose and treat. We aimed to establish a model of focal ischemia that targets the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and induce memory impairments. Stroke and sham mice were assessed at one and four-weeks post-stroke on various tests: open-field task to assess activity; grid-walk and cylinder task to assess motor impairments; elevated plus maze to assess anxiety; nov...

Predictors of health-related quality of life in community-dwelling stroke survivors: a cohort study
Conclusion. These results contribute to an understanding of HRQoL in the first year post-stroke. Community participation and stroke-related disability are potentially modifiable risk factors affecting post-stroke HRQoL. Interventions aimed at addressing participation and disability post-stroke should be developed and tested.

Lived experiences of chronic cognitive and mood symptoms among community-dwelling adults following stroke: a mixed-methods analysis.
CONCLUSION: Stroke survivors experienced cognitive and mood-related symptoms beyond one-year post stroke, which has implications for long-term assessment and management. Incorporation of continued symptom monitoring into existing community-based services is needed to address chronic cognitive and mood symptoms affecting the quality of life of persons with stroke.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) for stroke recovery.
CONCLUSIONS: We found no reliable evidence that SSRIs should be used routinely to promote recovery after stroke. Meta-analysis of the trials at low risk of bias indicate that SSRIs do not improve recovery from stroke. We identified potential improvements in disability only in the analyses which included trials at high risk of bias. A further meta-analysis of large ongoing trials will be required to determine the generalisability of these findings. PMID: 31769878 [PubMed - in process]
