Documented incontinence after stroke: a secondary analysis of a cohort study. Reducing Ethnic and Geographic Inequities to Optimise New Zealand Stroke Care (REGIONS Care)
CONCLUSION: This study likely underestimated incontinence prevalence after stroke, although incontinence was associated with increased mortality and probability of living in residential care.PMID:36521085

Long-term morbidities in stroke survivors: a prospective multicenter study of Thai stroke rehabilitation registry
Conclusion: Long-term complications are common in stroke survivors. More than three-fourths of the patients developed at least one during the first year after rehabilitation. Strategies to prevent complications should be concerned especially on musculoskeletal pain which was the most common complaint. Physical complications at discharge period associated with psychological complications at 1 year followed up. More attention should be emphasized on patients age older than 60 years who were the major risk group for developing such complications.

Psychiatric comorbidity and quality of life in patients with post-stroke emotional incontinence.
CONCLUSION: PSEI causes some aspects of psychiatric distress and negatively affects psychological and interpersonal quality of life. For patients with PSEI, special attention to psychiatric comorbidity and quality of life is needed, even in the acute stage of stroke. PMID: 24474987 [PubMed]

White Matter Injury in Ischemic Stroke
Publication date: Available online 14 April 2016 Source:Progress in Neurobiology Author(s): Yuan Wang, Gang Liu, Dandan Hong, Fenghua Chen, Xunming Ji, Guodong Cao Stroke is one of the major causes of disability and mortality worldwide. It is well known that ischemic stroke can cause gray matter injury. However, stroke also elicits profound white matter injury, a risk factor for higher stroke incidence and poor neurological outcomes. The majority of damage caused by stroke is located in subcortical regions and, remarkably, white matter occupies nearly half of the average infarct volume. Indeed, white matter is exqu...

Interventions for treating urinary incontinence after stroke in adults.
CONCLUSIONS: There is insufficient evidence to guide continence care of adults in the rehabilitative phase after stroke. As few trials tested the same intervention, conclusions are drawn from few, usually small, trials. CIs were wide, making it difficult to ascertain if there were clinically important differences. Only four trials had adequate allocation concealment and many were limited by poor reporting, making it impossible to judge the extent to which they were prone to bias. More appropriately powered, multicentre trials of interventions are required to provide robust evidence for interventions to improve urinary inco...

Pharmaceutical interventions for emotionalism after stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Antidepressants may reduce the frequency and severity of crying or laughing episodes based on very low quality evidence. Our conclusions must be qualified by several methodological deficiencies in the studies and interpreted with caution despite the effect being very large. The effect does not seem specific to one drug or class of drugs. More reliable data are required before appropriate conclusions can be made about the treatment of post-stroke emotionalism. Future trialists investigating the effect of antidepressants in people with emotionalism after stroke should consider developing and using a standardised...

Clinical risk factors for post-stroke urinary incontinence during rehabilitation
Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common problem after stroke. Risk factors for UI seem to be multifactorial. There is still controversy in which risk factors contribute to UI. The aim of this study was to investigate risk factors for UI in stroke patients during rehabilitation. Study investigated 150 participants after the first stroke consecutively admitted to a post-acute inpatient rehabilitation program. They were divided into continence and incontinence group according to continence status on rehabilitation admission. Data about sociodemographic factors, functional status, comorbidities, current medications, type and loc...

Dysphagia and Factors Associated with Respiratory Infections in the First Week Post Stroke
Conclusion: This study of a large cohort of acute stroke patients supports research indicating aspiration pneumonia is multifactorial in nature. NGT were associated with increased risk of respiratory infections and may contribute to infections by promoting oropharyngeal colonisation. Patients with severely impaired mobility were also at very high risk of respiratory infection.Neuroepidemiology 2014;43:140-144

A questionnaire survey to assess lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with chronic stroke
CONCLUSIONSStorage symptom is associated with not only neurological deficits but also sex and the presence of general diseases, whereas voiding symptom is influenced by physical activity in patients with chronic stroke. Therefore, lower urinary tract symptoms should be carefully monitored and physical rehabilitation should also be considered in patients with stroke.
