Maximal respiratory pressures: Measurements at functional residual capacity in individuals with different health conditions using a digital manometer
CONCLUSION: Although inspiratory and expiratory pressures at FRC were lower than measures obtained at RV/TLC for the five groups of health conditions, the mean differences between measurements at different lung volumes were similar among groups, which raises the discussion about the influence of the viscoelastic properties of the lungs on maximal respiratory pressure.PMID:37566990 | DOI:10.1016/j.bjpt.2023.100529

Improvement of diagnostic performance of hyperacute ischemic stroke in head CT using an image-based noise reduction technique with non-black-boxed process
CONCLUSION: The INR incorporating a simple and reproducible algorithm was more effective than HIR in detecting early CT signs and can be potentially applied to CT images from a large variety of CT systems.PMID:37549457 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejmp.2023.102646

Concurrent validation of the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Patient Assessment Instrument Version 1.4 Sections GG, B and C
CONCLUSION: The B+C scale and Section GG were correlated with FIMc and FIMm subscales but biased towards higher ratings of ability. Ceiling effects may limit discrimination at higher level of cognition/functional independence. The clinical acceptability of Section GG total scores as an outcome measure and predictor of long-term outcomes requires further study.PMID:37536618 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2023.07.009

The development of a flexion range-of-motion-adjustable knee joint for knee-ankle-foot orthoses and evaluation of gait in healthy individuals wearing it
Conclusion] The proposed knee joint, when used in post-stroke gait practice using knee-ankle-foot orthoses, allows the gradual increase in the flexion range of motion of the joint as the weight-bearing capability of the lower limb improves, which would enable task-oriented practice similar to walking with ankle-foot orthoses as the next-stage target movement.PMID:37529058 | PMC:PMC10390036 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.35.608

Physical Activity Behavior and Its Association With Global Cognitive Function Three Months After Stroke: The Nor-COAST Study
CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to previous research, in the present study, most participants adhered to the updated global PA guidelines. However, people who had survived stroke and had reduced cognitive function were at higher risk of inactivity, an association mediated by physical capacity.IMPACT: A better understanding of the association between cognition and PA behavior after stroke might help for developing more targeted early-onset interventions.PMID:37440440 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzad092

Aerobic Exercise Improves Cortical Inhibitory Function After Stroke: A Preliminary Investigation
CONCLUSIONS: These preliminary findings provide novel evidence for selective benefits of aerobic exercise on inhibitory control during the initial 4-week period after initiation of exercise training and implicate a potential therapeutic effect of lactate on poststroke inhibitory control.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the video, Supplemental Digital Content 1 available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A450).PMID:37436187 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000453

Association between anthropometric, physical and demographic characteristics and performance among NCAA Division III swimmers
CONCLUSIONS: Owing to the large number of analyses performed and the resultant likelihood of type I errors as well as the small effect sizes in most statistically significant associations, study results suggest that collegiate swimmers should not be chosen for swim teams based on any of the non-modifiable anthropometric or physical characteristics that were measured in this study. Results suggest however, that swim speed times are decreased among female collegiate swimmers with lower body fat percent when measured mid-season.PMID:37428098 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.23.14818-3

Test-retest reliability and responsiveness of the Computerized Adaptive Testing System of the Functional Assessment of Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest the CAT-FAS is an efficient measurement tool with good to excellent test-retest reliability and responsiveness. In addition, the CAT-FAS can be used routinely in clinical settings to monitor progress of the crucial four domains for persons with stroke.PMID:37419234 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2023.06.017
