Usefulness of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as a predictor of functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke after thrombolysis therapy
Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2021 Jun 29;34(6):664-667. doi: 10.1080/08998280.2021.1938471. eCollection 2021.ABSTRACTIn stroke patients, a high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been associated with poor functional outcome at 3 months, higher mortality, and a higher hemorrhagic transformation. We assessed the role of NLR in patients with acute ischemic stroke who received thrombolysis. The charts of 98 patients treated between 2015 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The mean NLR was compared using an independent Student's t test. At 3 months, a good functional outcome was seen in 31 patients (32%) and a poor func...

Usefulness of a standing frame to improve contraversive pushing in a patient post-stroke in inpatient rehabilitation.
Abstract Despite the negative functional and financial implications of contraversive pushing (CoP) in the post-stroke population, little research has focused on improving this phenomenon more rapidly. A 58-year-old man was admitted to inpatient rehabilitation with a large frontoparietal intracerebral hemorrhage resulting in significant left hemiparesis and CoP. A standing frame protocol was implemented into standard care to improve CoP. The patient was assisted into a standing frame daily, and the Burke Lateropulsion Scale and Functional Independence Measure were tracked. Improvements in both outcome measures were...

EEG-Based Evidence of Mirror Neuron Activity from App-Mediated Stroke Patient Observation
Conclusions: These findings reveal that the human mirror neuron system was more strongly activated during observation of actions closely related to daily life activities than landscape images.PMID:34577902 | DOI:10.3390/medicina57090979
