Background: Physical therapy interventions play a crucial role in the daily care of patients recovering from severe stroke. However, the efficacy of these interventions and associated modalities, including duration, intensity, and frequency, have not been fully elucidated. In 2020, a systematic review reported the beneficial effects of physical therapy for patients with severe stroke but did not assess therapeutic modalities.

Rationale: Clinical practice guidelines summarise the existing evidence on specific health conditions and aim to optimise quality of care by providing evidence-based recommendations. Studies have reported a gap between research findings and clinical practice in physiotherapy. Guideline adherence is often used as a measure of agreement between therapeutic care and guideline recommendations.

Article Synopsis
  • The Mexican fruit fly, Anastrepha ludens, is a significant agricultural pest in North and Central America, but a detailed genome assembly had not been created until now.
  • Researchers successfully developed a chromosome-level genome using advanced sequencing technologies, resulting in a comprehensive assembly of 140 scaffolds that captures essential genetic information.
  • The study also identified sex chromosomes with a focus on evolutionary trends, showing that genes linked to the X chromosome evolve faster than those on autosomes, offering new insights into the evolution of sex chromosomes in these fruit flies.
