Perceived performance of activities of daily living by stroke patients: key in decision to call EMS and outcomes
ConclusionPerception of unimpaired performance of ADL is a crucial barrier to appropriate help-seeking behavior after acute stroke, leading to undertreatment and less improvement in clinical symptoms. Thus, beyond improving the public’s knowledge of stroke symptoms, future public education campaigns should focus on the need for calling the EMS in case of stroke symptoms even if daily activities do not seem to be severely impaired.

The effects of cycling on walking outcomes in adults with stroke: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Considerable heterogeneity was observed across cycling protocols with respect to intensity, frequency, exercise duration and protocol duration. However, none of the studies reported declines in walking outcomes and improvements were measured in the absence of task-specific gait training. Cycling interventions employing moderate- to high-intensity aerobic training and 24 sessions or more may be optimal in improving gait velocity and walking capacity.PMID:37732513 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2259167

Posterior semicircular canal cupulolithiasis during acute pontomedullary demyelination
We describe a woman with MS who developed a sixth nerve palsy and gaze-evoked nystagmus, caused by demyelination near or within areas classically involved in central positional vertigo. However, she also had positional vertigo from coincident BPPV (and not central positional vertigo). This was initially a treatment resistant-posterior semicircular canal cupulolithiasis but it later progressed to a posterior semicircular canal canalolithiasis, with symptoms promptly resolving after a repositioning manoeuvre.PMID:37734945 | DOI:10.1136/pn-2023-003884

Excitability of somatosensory cortex is increased in ALS: A SEP recovery function study
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings demonstrated increased somatosensory cortical excitability in ALS, which was associated with clinical parameters such as reduced pulmonary function and motor strength.SIGNIFICANCE: Somatosensory cortical excitability is impaired in ALS. Whether this is associated with increased motor cortical excitability requires further studies.PMID:37734132 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2023.08.013

Assisted reproductive technology outcomes and management considerations for people with epilepsy
Curr Opin Endocrinol Diabetes Obes. 2023 Sep 22. doi: 10.1097/MED.0000000000000838. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: Epilepsy is a common neurologic condition amongst people with reproductive capacity, and assisted reproductive technology (ART) is being increasingly utilized. A recent population-based study described favorable outcomes of ART in this population, but other work shows how fluctuating sex hormones may influence medication concentrations and seizures.RECENT FINDINGS: This review discusses hormonal influences on epilepsy and catamenial epilepsy, considerations regarding fertility in women with e...

Motivation-related influences on fNIRS signals during walking exercise: a permutation entropy approach
This study provides early evidence to suggest that while different motivational environments during walking activity influence the magnitude of fNIRS signals, they may not influence the regularity of cortical signals. However, the magnitude of PE difference between motivational conditions was related to self-determined motivation in the aPFC, and this is an area warranting further investigation.PMID:37733031 | DOI:10.1007/s00221-023-06707-5

The effect of type 2 diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy on predictive grip force control
This study investigated the impact of type 2 diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy on grip force control during object manipulation. The study included three age-matched groups: type 2 diabetes alone (n = 11), type 2 diabetes with neuropathy (n = 13), and healthy controls (n = 12). Grip force control variables derived from lifting and holding an experimental cup were the ratio between grip force and load forces during lifting (GFR), latency 1 and latency 2, which represented the time between the object's grip and its lift-off from the table, and the period between object's lift-off and the grip force peak, respective...
