Can exercise training promote better sleep and reduced fatigue in people with chronic stroke? A systematic review
J Sleep Res. 2022 Jun 27:e13675. doi: 10.1111/jsr.13675. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPoor sleep and chronic fatigue are common in people with chronic stroke (i.e. ≥ 6 months post-stroke). Exercise training is a viable, low-cost therapy for promoting sleep and reducing fatigue; however, the effects of exercise on sleep and fatigue in people with chronic stroke are unclear. Thus, we conducted a systematic review ascertaining the effects of exercise on sleep and fatigue in people with chronic stroke. We systematically searched EMBASE, MEDLINE, AgeLine, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, SCOP...

Am J Hypertens. 2021 Aug 9;34(8):783-794. doi: 10.1093/ajh/hpab017.ABSTRACTHome blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) is a reliable, convenient, and less costly alternative to ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) for the diagnosis and management of hypertension. Recognition and use of HBPM have dramatically increased over the last 20 years and current guidelines make strong recommendations for the use of both HBPM and ABPM in patients with hypertension. The accuracy and reliability of home blood pressure (BP) measurements require use of a validated device and standardized procedures, and good patient information and trai...
