Article Synopsis
- * The aim of this project is to develop a new rehabilitation model that prioritizes individual needs and incorporates the home environment to enhance recovery for stroke patients.
- * The project's collaborative approach involves stakeholders including stroke survivors, families, and healthcare professionals, and it will span four years from 2023 to 2026 to establish effective practices for home rehabilitation.
Background: The built environment needs to be designed so that all people can participate in the activities they want and need to do. Yet, accessibility is difficult to put into practice, and accessibility issues tend to be overlooked in the building and planning processes.
Objectives: The aim of this scoping review was to summarize the research front in the area of accessibility to public buildings.
Acousto-optic coupling in polyimide-coated single-mode optical fibers using flexural elastic waves is demonstrated. The effect of the polyimide coating on the acousto-optic interaction process is analyzed in detailed. Theoretical and experimental results are in good agreement.

Design: Cross-sectional study utilizing the assessment tools Impact on Participation and Autonomy (IPA) and Housing Enabler (HE). Adjusting for demographic, social and injury related data, associations between objective housing accessibility and aspects of participation were analyzed by means of ordinal regression models.
Background: Advances in acute treatment, physiatric care, and rehabilitation have improved survival greatly after spinal cord injury (SCI) and increased longevity. This has led to a need for an in-depth understanding of factors associated with healthy aging in people with long-term SCI.
Objective: To present the methodology and initial results of the Swedish Aging with Spinal Cord Injury Study, a longitudinal cohort survey targeting older adults with long-term SCI.
