A Scoping Review of the Incidence, Predictors, and Outcomes of Delirium Among Critically Ill Stroke Patients
CONCLUSIONS: Current findings are limited by heterogenous populations, assessments, and measurement parameters. Detection and management of delirium among critically ill stroke patients requires an approach with specific considerations to the complexities of acute neurological injury and concomitant critical illness.

Muscle Synergies During Repetitive Stoop Lifting With a Bioelectrically-Controlled Lumbar Support Exoskeleton
Conclusions Our current study aims to examine the effects of a lumbar support exoskeleton from the perspective of muscle coordination with muscle synergy analysis. For our experimental protocol, we assumed a fixed spatial set of muscle synergy weights, but variable recruitment (timing coefficients) for each condition. Chvatal and Ting (2012) provided evidence in their results and cited a multitude of studies that strongly support the assumption that modifications in human walking can be attributed to variances in the recruitment of spatially-fixed muscle synergies. Our results indicate that muscle coordination patterns a...

Dynamic Office Environments Improve Brain Activity and Attentional Performance Mediated by Increased Motor Activity
Conclusion The results of the present study reveal short- and mid-term effects on attentional and vigilance performance, and EEG brain activity when working in a dynamic versus a static environment. During working in a dynamic office, attentional and vigilance performance increased compared to working in a static office. Brain activities show increased alpha, beta and gamma power in the frontal and central areas in the attentional task with increased theta, alpha, and beta activity in the vigilance task. These findings suggest that working in a dynamic office environment stimulates the brain towards an optimum psychophysi...
