Stroke Recovery During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Position Paper on Recommendations for Rehabilitation
Arch Phys Med Rehabil. 2022 May 6:S0003-9993(22)00364-1. doi: 10.1016/j.apmr.2022.04.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHealthcare delivery shifted and adapted with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus 2 (CoV-2). Stroke care was negatively impacted across the care continuum and may lead to poor community living outcomes in those who survived a stroke during the ongoing pandemic. For instance, delays in seeking care, changes in length of stays, and shifts in discharge patterns were observed during the pandemic. Those seeking care were young...

Effect of wearable exoskeleton on post-stroke gait: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Exoskeleton-assisted training was superior to dose-matched conventional gait training in several gait-related outcomes at the end of the intervention and follow-up in this systematic review and meta-analysis, which may support the use of exoskeleton-assisted training in the rehabilitation setting. Whether wearing versus not wearing a wearable exoskeleton is beneficial during walking remains unknown.PMID:35525427 | DOI:10.1016/j.rehab.2022.101674

Noise modelling of perfusion CT images for robust hemodynamic parameter estimations
This study first investigates the noise properties in low-dose CPCT images and proposes a perfusion deconvolution model based on the noise properties.APPROACH: To characterize the noise distribution in CPCT images properly, we analyze noise properties in low-dose CPCT images and find that the intra-frame noise distribution may vary in the different areas and the inter-frame noise also may vary in low-dose CPCT images. Thus, we attempt the first-ever effort to model CPCT noise with a non-independent and identical distribution (i.i.d.) mixture-of-Gaussians (MoG) model for noise assumption. Furthermore, we integrate the noise...

Types of physical activity performed pre and post stroke
CONCLUSION: In this single-site study of relatively able participants, stroke survivors frequently returned to their pre-stroke types of physical activity. A positive correlation between self-reported and objective measures of physical activity was demonstrated, but self-reported activity overestimates objective physical activity post-stroke.PMID:35487096 | DOI:10.1016/j.bjpt.2022.100412

Movement behavior patterns composition remains stable, but individuals change their movement behavior pattern over time in people with a first-ever stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The composition of movement behavior patterns remains stable over time. However, individuals change their movement behavior. Significantly more people allocated to a movement behavior pattern with higher health risks. The increase of people allocated to sedentary movers and sedentary prolongers is of great concern. It underlines the importance of improving or maintaining healthy movement behavior to prevent future health risks after stroke.PMID:35459097 | DOI:10.1186/s11556-022-00290-4

First systematic review and meta-analysis of the validity and test retest reliability of physical activity monitors for estimating energy expenditure during walking in individuals with stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Portable physical activity monitors provided a low correlation with indirect calorimetry during walking in individuals with stroke. It seems essential to pursue studies to improve their validity in this population.PMID:35443210 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2022.03.020

Relationship among trunk control, activities of daily living, and upper extremity function during the first week after stroke in patients with acute cerebral infarction
Conclusion] The trunk control ability assessed using the Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke is strongly correlated with activities of daily living estimated using the Functional Independence Measure in the first week after stroke in patients with acute cerebral infarction. The upper extremity component of Fugl-Meyer Assessment was not identified as a factor affecting the Functional Independence Measure.PMID:35400839 | PMC:PMC8989477 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.315

Effect of trim line on stiffness in dorsi- and plantarflexion of posterior leaf spring ankle-foot orthoses
Conclusion] A strong linear correlation was found between posterior upright width and orthotic stiffness, suggesting that it is highly feasible to standardize orthotic settings according to individual conditions of patients after stroke, even for posterior leaf spring ankle-foot orthoses.PMID:35400835 | PMC:PMC8989486 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.284
