Virtual reality simulation training in stroke thrombectomy centers with limited patient volume-Simulator performance and patient outcome
CONCLUSION: Performance on the virtual reality simulator improved after training. Virtual reality simulation may improve the learning curve for interventional radiologists in limited-volume thrombectomy centers. No correlation alleged, the clinical data indicates that the centers studied performed thrombectomy in accordance with guideline-recommended standards.PMID:37670718 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231198275

Physical Activity Behavior and Its Association With Global Cognitive Function Three Months After Stroke: The Nor-COAST Study
CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to previous research, in the present study, most participants adhered to the updated global PA guidelines. However, people who had survived stroke and had reduced cognitive function were at higher risk of inactivity, an association mediated by physical capacity.IMPACT: A better understanding of the association between cognition and PA behavior after stroke might help for developing more targeted early-onset interventions.PMID:37440440 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzad092

IJERPH, Vol. 20, Pages 5958: Education Level and Self-Reported Cardiovascular Disease in Norway & mdash;The Troms & oslash; Study, 1994 & ndash;2016
Conclusions: Norwegian adults with a higher education level were at lower risk of self-reported CVD. The association was present in both genders, with a lower risk observed in women than men. After accounting for lifestyle factors, there was no clear association between education level and self-reported CVD, likely due to covariates acting as mediators.

Delirium screening in a stroke unit by nurses using 4AT: Results from a quality improvement project
AbstractAimTo assess the feasibility of delirium screening with the screening tool 4AT conducted by stroke unit nurses.DesignObservational.MethodsPatients with confirmed acute stroke admitted to the stroke unit at B ærum Hospital, Norway, from March to October 2020, were consecutively recruited. Nurses performed delirium screening using the rapid screening tool 4AT within 24 h of admission, at discharge and when delirium was suspected, and filled out a questionnaire assessing their experiences with the delir ium screening. A geriatrician validated the delirium diagnosis.ResultsIn all, 62 patients were included, mean age...

Pain tolerance after stroke: The Troms ø study
ConclusionsStroke survivors, with and without chronic pain, had lower cold pressor pain tolerance, with possible clinical implications for pain in this group.SignificanceWe found lower pain tolerance in participants with previous stroke compared to stroke-free participants of a large, population-based study. The association was present both in those with and without chronic pain. The results may warrant increased awareness by health professionals towards pain experienced by stroke patients in response to injuries, diseases and procedures.

Multimodal individualised intervention to prevent functional decline after stroke: protocol of a randomised controlled trial on long-term follow-up after stroke (LAST-long)
Introduction Multimodal interventions have emerged as new approaches to provide more targeted intervention to reduce functional decline after stroke. Still, the evidence is contradictory. The main objective of the Life After Stroke (LAST)-long trial is to investigate if monthly meetings with a stroke coordinator who offers a multimodal approach to long-term follow-up can prevent functional decline after stroke. Methods and analysis LAST-long is a pragmatic single-blinded, parallel-group randomised controlled trial recruiting participants living in six different municipalities, admitted to four hospitals in Norway. The pat...

Burden of disease due to transportation noise in the Nordic countries
CONCLUSION: Further harmonization of noise exposure data is required for between-country comparisons. Moreover, nationwide noise models indicate that DALY estimates based on END considerably underestimate national BoD due to transportation noise. The health-related burden of traffic noise was comparable to that of air pollution, an established risk factor for disease in the GBD framework. Inclusion of environmental noise as a risk factor in the GBD is strongly encouraged.PMID:37156356 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2023.116077
