Randomization to Treadmill Training Improves Physical and Metabolic Health in Association with Declines in Oxidative Stress in Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Six months of TM tends to be associated with increased functional capacity and reduced oxidative stress in chronic stroke survivors. Our findings identify potentially modifiable systemic markers of inflammation and oxidative stress important to stroke rehabilitation and provide potential targets for novel therapeutics in future studies.PMID:35839921 | DOI:10.1016/j.apmr.2022.06.011

7 medtech stories we missed this week: June 2, 2017
[Photo from unsplash.com]From Implandata receiving CE Marking to Inolife eyeing up-listing, here are 7 medtech stories we missed this week but thought were still worth mentioning. 1. Dextera seeks expanded indications for MicroCutter 5/80 stapler Dextera Surgical announced in a June 1 press release that it has filed a 510(k) with the FDA for its MicroCutter 5/80 stapler. The company wants to expand the indications of the MicroCutter 5/80 for use in liver, pancreas, kidney and spleen surgeries. Currently, the staplers are used for transection and resection in multiple open minimally-invasive urologic, thoracic and pediatr...

Muscle Atrophy, Voluntary Activation Disturbances, and Low Concentrations of IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 Are Associated With Weakness in People With Chronic Stroke.
ConclusionsLow serum IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 concentrations, deficits in neuromuscular performance, selective muscle atrophy, and decreased agonist muscle activation are presented in chronic post-stroke subjects. PMID: 24578521 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
