Asymptomatic carriers of COVID-19 in a confined adult community population in Quebec: A cross-sectional study.

Several countries have undertaken social distancing measures to stop SARS-CoV-2 spread. Asymptomatic carriers' prevalence is unknown and would provide essential information on hidden viral circulation. In our cross-sectional study, 1.

Shear wave elastography potential to characterize spastic muscles in stroke survivors: Literature review.

Background: Post-stroke spasticity contributes to impairments, disabilities and decline in quality of life. Quantitative measurements of spasticity are needed in order to assess the impact of specific treatments and to choose the more accurate technique for each patient. The aim of this review is to examine the use of shear wave ultrasound elastography as a quantitative tool for monitoring biomechanical muscle properties such as stiffness and to determine whether it is a reliable method to assess spastic muscle in stroke survivors.
