Development and Psychometric Testing of the Bimanual Assessment Measure for People With Chronic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: The BAM is a valid, reliable measure for people with chronic stroke that identifies bimanual coordination deficits beyond unimanual impairments and the potential capacity for people to return to prestroke hand roles (i.e., as a manipulator). What This Article Adds: This article introduces the BAM as a new assessment measure of bimanual functioning with the potential capacity to restore prestroke hand roles as either a manipulator or a stabilizer among people with chronic stroke.PMID:35671509 | DOI:10.5014/ajot.2022.048995

A Review of Construction Workforce Health Challenges and Strategies in Extreme Weather Conditions
Int J Occup Saf Ergon. 2022 May 27:1-35. doi: 10.1080/10803548.2022.2082138. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAbstractConstruction sites continue to operate despite inclement weather, exposing workers to unpleasant working circumstances that can lead to various physical and mental health challenges. A thorough literature review yielded 21 challenges for hot weather conditions such as heat stroke, kidney disease, heat cramps, anxiety, depression and 20 challenges for cold weather conditions like asthma, frostbite, Musculo-Skeletal disorders, hallucination. Workers vulnerable to hot and cold weather based on demographic charact...

The modifying role of major cardiovascular risk factors in the association between retirement and cardiovascular disease: Results from SHARE Portugal
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that retirement and retirement age may be beneficial or harmful, respectively, in the presence or absence of major risk factors for heart disease and stroke. We suggest that work-related stress affecting differently workers with and without these risk factors may eventually explain these findings.PMID:35527592 | DOI:10.3233/WOR-205224

Self-Perceived ADL/IADL Function is Influenced by Residual Neurological Impairment, Aphasia, and Anxiety
We examined the extent to which aphasia status, neurological impairment and poststroke depression, and anxiety contribute to self-perceived ADL/IADL function.METHOD.: Seventy-six community-dwelling individuals at least 6 months poststroke, 44 with and 32 without aphasia, participated in the cross-sectional study. The Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) ADL/IADL domain was the primary outcome measure with aphasia status, residual neurological impairment, depressive symptoms, and anxiety as predictor variables.FINDINGS: Aphasia status, residual neurological impairment, and anxiety were independent predictors of self-perceived ADL/IADL...
