How Do Recurrent and First-Ever Strokes Differ in Rehabilitation Outcomes?

Can You Think Yourself Into A Different Person?
For years she had tried to be the perfect wife and mother but now, divorced, with two sons, having gone through another break-up and in despair about her future, she felt as if she’d failed at it all, and she was tired of it. On 6 June 2007 Debbie Hampton, of Greensboro, North Carolina, took an overdose of more than 90 pills – a combination of ten different prescription drugs, some of which she’d stolen from a neighbor’s bedside cabinet. That afternoon, she’d written a note on her computer: “I’ve screwed up this life so bad that there is no place here for me and nothing I can contr...

The Role of Neighborhoods in the Receipt of Transcranial Doppler Screening Among Children With Sickle Cell Disease
Although transcranial Doppler (TCD) screening assesses the need for stroke prevention efforts among children with sickle cell disease (SCD), screening rates remain low across many parts of the United States. We sought to identify neighborhoods with low TCD screening rates and neighborhood-level factors related to screening to inform the utility of community-level interventions to improve TCD screening. Children ages 2 to 16 years with SCD (HbSS/HbS/β-thalassemia) living in Wayne County, MI, were identified in Michigan Medicaid (2007 to 2011) through newborn screening records. Children were enrolled for ≥1 year and could...

More Than A Third Of Americans Don't Get Enough Sleep
We spend about one-third of our life doing it, but more than one in three Americans still aren’t getting enough sleep, according to a new government report. In their first study of self-reported sleep length, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that 34.8 percent of American adults are getting less than seven hours of sleep -- the minimum length of time adults should sleep in order to reduce risk of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, mental distress, coronary heart disease and early death. In total, an estimated 83.6 million adults in the U.S. are sleep deprived, the CDC repor...

The overall health and risk factor profile of Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander participants from the 45 and up study
Conclusions:
Aboriginal participants from the 45 and Up Study experience greater levels of disadvantage and have greater health needs (including physical disability and psychological distress) compared to non-Aboriginal participants. The study highlights the need to address the social determinants of health in Australia and to provide appropriate mental health services and disability support for older Aboriginal people.

Prognostic factors of return to work after traumatic or non-traumatic acquired brain injury.
CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms earlier findings that after both traumatic and non-traumatic ABI injury related factors in the Emergency Department are not associated with RTW. In addition, it provides further evidence that personal factors after traumatic ABI and activity-related factors after non-traumatic ABI are strongly associated with RTW. Implications for Rehabilitation We found strong evidence for a significant association between RTW and personal factors (education level, unemployment) after traumatic ABI, and activities of daily living (ADL) after non-traumatic ABI. We advise to focus on work-related activities ...
