Comparing the Course of Mental Health over the First Year after Stroke with Healthy Controls in Colombia, South America
Stroke is a primary cause of death and disability in upper-middle income countries such as Colombia. Given the lack of comprehensive rehabilitation for stroke patients in Colombia, there is a need to assess longitudinal mental health problems post-stroke in this region.

Demystifying post-stroke pain: from etiology to treatment
Unintended dural punctures with cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) leak are recognized as a frequent complication of spinal surgery. Although there are conservative and invasive options to treat post-operative CSF leaks, existing literature defines neither an algorithmic treatment approach nor a universally accepted standard of care. We believe that a transforaminal epidural blood patch (EBP) can serve as a minimally invasive, cost-effective option to treat post-surgical CSF leaks that do not resolve with conservative management.

Demystifying Poststroke Pain: From Etiology to Treatment
Pain after stroke is commonly reported but often incompletely managed, which prevents optimal recovery. This situation occurs in part because of the esoteric nature of poststroke pain and its limited presence in current discussions of stroke management. The major specific afflictions that affect patients with stroke who experience pain include central poststroke pain, complex regional pain syndrome, and pain associated with spasticity and shoulder subluxation. Each disorder carries its own intricacies that require specific approaches to treatment and understanding.

Falls and fear of falling after stroke: a case-control study
Falls are common after stroke with potentially serious consequences. Few investigations have included age-matched controls to directly compare fall characteristics between older adults with and without stroke. Further, fear of falling, a significant psychological consequence of falls, has only been examined to a limited degree as a risk factor for future falls in a stroke population.

Time for Food—Including Nutrition on Physiatrists' Tables
Unhealthy nutrition is a leading factor in various rehabilitation diagnoses such as stroke and several musculoskeletal complications. Further, the association between nutrition, pain management, and brain plasticity support the importance of having rehabilitation patients follow healthy nutrition guidelines. The goal of this brief report is to emphasize the importance of nutritional counseling to physiatrists and to briefly describe recommended communication skills, behavioral change strategies, and opportunities for interprofessional collaborations.

Test-retest reliability and convergent validity of three manual dexterity measures in persons with chronic stroke
Reduced manual dexterity is common in persons after stroke. Different measures are used to assess manual dexterity but there is a lack of knowledge about their reliability and how they are related.
