Clinical research coordinators' role in knowledge translation activities in rehabilitation: a mixed methods study.

Background: Clinical research coordinators (CRCs) facilitate the interaction between researchers and knowledge users in rehabilitation centres to promote and sustain evidence-informed practices. Despite their presence in rehabilitation settings in Quebec for over 20 years, little is known about their profiles and knowledge translation (KT) activities nor how they can best enact their role. This study explored CRCs' roles and perspectives on the barriers, enablers, and strategies for improving KT activities in rehabilitation settings.

Urban sprawl in Canada: Values in all 33 Census Metropolitan Areas and corresponding 469 Census Subdivisions between 1991 and 2011.

The dataset presented here provides the degree of urban sprawl across 33 Census Metropolitan Areas (CMAs) in Canada of 2011 together with the 469 Census Subdivisions (CSDs) located within the 2011 boundaries of the CMAs, for the years 1991, 2001, and 2011. The dataset contains the values of weighted urban proliferation () and weighted sprawl per capita () and their components. The landscape-oriented value of indicates how strongly the landscape within the boundaries of a reporting unit is sprawled per square meter, while is inhabitant-oriented and reveals how much on average an inhabitant or workplace is contributing to urban sprawl in the reporting unit.

Interventions Addressing Vision, Visual-perceptual Impairments Following Acquired Brain Injury: A Cross-sectional Survey.

Background.: The existing literature on the effectiveness of interventions targeting vision, visual-perceptual impairments following acquired brain injury (ABI) is scarce and unlinked to occupational performance.

Accompanying citizen of persons with traumatic brain injury in a community integration project: An exploration of the role.

Background: The APIC (Citizen Accompaniment Project for Community Integration) is an innovative program that seeks to increase the community integration of people with a traumatic brain injury (TBI) by offering the support of an accompanying citizen (AC) in the accomplishment of significant life activities.

Objective: This article aims to better define the AC's role in this process, by underlining the mental health risks they face, the strategies they use, and the impacts the role has on their own lives.

Methods: This qualitative study is based on the analysis of interviews conducted with the AC following the first year of implementation.
