Body structure/function impairments and activity limitations of post-stroke that predict social participation: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: There is some evidence that stroke severity, mental and motor deficits, limitations in activities of daily living and the ability to walk after a stroke can predict social participation in the community.

The Stroke Self-Efficacy Questionnaire Brazil (SSEQ-B): a structural validity analysis
CONCLUSION: SSEQ-B is a valid and reliable measure of stroke self-efficacy. The preferred structure of the SSEQ-B is bifactorial and includes the domains activity and self-management.PMID:35786389 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2022.2095084

Social distancing, stroke admissions and stroke mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic: a multicenter, longitudinal study
Objectives. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between social distancing, stroke admissions and stroke mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic, while accounting for the rate of COVID-19 admissions. Methods. We performed a longitudinal analysis of a multicenter, prospective, hospital-based registry of intensive care units from 19 hospitals from Brazil, comprising a 14-month period of the COVID-19 pandemic. We investigated whether the daily rate of admissions (DRAstroke) and daily mortality rate for stroke were associated with the social distancing index (SDI), taking into account the daily rate of admissions for COVID-19 ...

Stroke Hospital Admissions during the COVID-19 Outbreak in S ão Paulo, Brazil
Conclusion: We argue for policies aimed at improving stroke care and developing awareness campaigns regarding the importance of early diagnosis and treatment, as even in less severe presentations, stroke can trigger an increase in mortality, cost, and long-term disability.Cerebrovasc Dis

Acute ischemic stroke and COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil: a comparative study of frequency and risk factors before and during SARS-CoV-2 era
ConclusionsHospital admissions for AIS decreased in the COVID-19 pandemic, mostly during months of higher incidences of new COVID-19 cases. When the incidence of admissions diminished, an increase in the severity of AIS was observed, characterized by larger areas. These findings might contribute to other similar referral centers in managing public policies related to stroke.

Neurological manifestations as prognostic factors in COVID-19: a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionsNeurological symptoms are frequent among patients with COVID-19. Encephalopathy was the most frequent neurological complication and was associated with a higher mortality. Those with anosmia had a lower mortality.

Reliability of the Theory of Mind Task Battery (ToM TB) to assess social cognition in post-stroke patients
Top Stroke Rehabil. 2021 Aug 1:1-8. doi: 10.1080/10749357.2021.1948155. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTheory of mind is the ability to understand, and infer thoughts or mental states to others. This is a central domain of social cognition that can be impaired after brain injury, resulting in changes in social skills and implications for rehabilitation.The aim of this investigation was to analyze the reliability of the Theory of Mind Task Battery (ToM TB) in post-stroke patients.This is a cross-sectional prospective study with psychometric characteristics, involving 38 patients diagnosed with ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke ...

Polygala sabulosa A.W. Bennett extract mitigates motor and cognitive deficits in a mouse model of acute ischemia
AbstractStroke is considered one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The treatment is limited; however, the Brazilian flora has a great source of natural products with therapeutic potentials. Studies with the medicinal plantPolygala sabulosa W. Bennett provided evidence for its use as an anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective drug. In the case of ischemic stroke due to lack of oxygen, both acute and chronic inflammatory processes are activated. Thus, we hypothesized thatP. sabulosa (HEPs) has the potential to treat the motor and cognitive deficits generated by ischemic stroke. Male mice were subjected to global ischem...
