Cerebrovascular Disease Mortality after occupational Radiation Exposure among the UK National Registry for Radiation Workers Cohort
This study uses data from the UK National Registry for Radiation Workers cohort to assess the association between low-dose exposure to external radiation and cerebrovascular disease (CeVD) mortality. Poisson regression was used to estimate the Excess Relative Risk of CeVD mortality per Sievert (ERR/Sv) of radiation exposure. Estimates were obtained for all CeVD combined, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke and other/ill-defined CeVD. Results were adjusted for attained age, calendar period, sex, employer, industrial category and employment length. 166,812 nuclear workers (3,665,413 person-years) were included. By the end of...

Gait and Balance Outcome Measures are Responsive in Severely Impaired Individuals Undergoing Inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation
CONCLUSIONS: Routine assessment of gait and balance outcome measures with patients with severe deficits early poststroke may be beneficial. These measures were responsive after one week of rehabilitation and detected changes not captured by customary measures. Routine use of a standardized gait and balance assessments may provide clinicians with important information to guide clinical decision-making.PMID:35093332 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2022.01.140

The effects of virtual reality training in stroke and Parkinson's disease rehabilitation: a systematic review and a perspective on usability
CONCLUSIONS: VR training is suggested as an effective intervention to improve the functional ability in stroke and PD patients. Addition of VR into a rehabilitation program might facilitate patient's motivation, participation and improvement, as this method was generally well accepted, and the results of trials were promising. The consideration of disorder-specific aspects should take place during the decision-making of VR implementation.PMID:35078401 | DOI:10.1186/s11556-022-00283-3

Sex Differences in Physical Activity in People After Stroke: A Cross-sectional Study
CONCLUSION: This study reported sex differences in the walking duration after stroke. Moreover, it found that women spent more time in low intensity physical activity than men. Our results will be useful for planning interventions to increase physical activity and decrease sedentary behavior after stroke.PMID:35036263 | PMC:PMC8752872 | DOI:10.1298/ptr.E10099

A Narrative Review of Alternate Gait Training Using Knee-ankle-foot Orthosis in Stroke Patients with Severe Hemiparesis
Phys Ther Res. 2021 Dec 6;24(3):195-203. doi: 10.1298/ptr.R0015. eCollection 2021.ABSTRACTImpairments resulting from stroke lead to persistent difficulties with walking. Subsequently, an improved walking ability is one of the highest priorities for people living with stroke. The degree to which gait can be restored after a stroke is related to both the initial impairment in walking ability and the severity of paresis of the lower extremities. However, there are some patients with severe motor paralysis and a markedly disrupted corticospinal tract who regain their gait function. Recently, several case reports have described...

Effects of kinesthetic illusion induced by visual stimulation on the ankle joint for sit-to-stand in a hemiparesis stroke patient: ABA' single-case design
Conclusion] Kinesthetic illusion induced by visual stimulation for a hemiparesis stroke patient affected the ankle dorsiflexion function, resulting in an improved asymmetry during sit-to-stand as assessed by weight-bearing symmetry values.PMID:35035082 | PMC:PMC8752272 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.65

Evaluation of supraspinatus muscle changes in the shoulder joint of stroke patients with hemiplegic and shoulder subluxation using ultrasonography: comparison between affected and unaffected sides
Conclusion] The thickness and rate of supraspinatus muscle thickness change was significantly less in the affected side than in the unaffected side in stroke patients with shoulder subluxation.PMID:35035079 | PMC:PMC8752278 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.44
