Evidence-based approach to the shoulder examination for subacromial bursitis and rotator cuff tears: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Shoulder pain represents a common patient complaint evaluated in a primary care setting. Approximately two thirds of these patients have rotator cuff injuries, with rotator cuff tears (RCTs) and subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) accounting for a majority of causes. An accurate and efficient diagnostic strategy focused on physical examination findings may lead to improved outcomes and less functional disability.

Exploring physical activity in people after stroke: a substudy of the Falls After Stroke Trial.

Purpose: The Falls After Stroke Trial (FAST) intervention involves habit-forming functional exercise and mobility practice which may increase physical activity. This substudy of FAST explores physical activity in community-dwelling people after stroke comparing the FAST intervention to usual care.

Methods: This study used a subset of 49 participants from a randomised trial.

Mechanically assisted walking with body weight support results in more independent walking and better walking ability compared with usual walking training in non-ambulatory adults early after stroke: a systematic review.

Questions: In subacute, non-ambulatory individuals after stroke, does mechanically assisted walking with body weight support result in more independent walking or better walking ability than usual walking training in the short term? Are any benefits maintained in the longer term? Is it detrimental to walking in terms of walking speed?

Design: A systematic review with meta-analysis of randomised studies with a Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) score > 4.

Participants: Non-ambulatory adults ≤ 12 weeks after stroke.

Intervention: Any type of mechanically assisted walking with body weight support.

The gut microbiome and resistome of yellow perch () living in Minnesota lakes under varying anthropogenic pressure.

Anthropogenic activities can significantly impact wildlife in natural water bodies, affecting not only the host's physiology but also its microbiome. This study aimed to analyze the gut microbiome and antimicrobial resistance gene profile (i.e.
