The microgravity environment has a direct impact on the cardiovascular system due to the fluid shift and weightlessness that results in cardiac dysfunction, vascular remodeling, and altered Cardiovascular autonomic modulation (CAM), deconditioning and poor performance on space activities, ultimately endangering the health of astronauts. This study aimed to identify the acute and chronic effects of microgravity and Earth analogues on cardiovascular anatomy and function and CAM. CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Science Direct, PubMed, and Web of Science databases were searched.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the measurement properties of activity monitoring for a rehabilitation (AMoR) platform for step counting, time spent in sedentary behavior, and postural changes during activities of daily living (ADLs) in a simulated home environment.

Methods: Twenty-one individuals in the post-stroke chronic phase used the AMoR platform during an ADL protocol and were monitored by a video camera. Spearman's correlation coefficient, mean absolute percent error (MAPE), intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and Bland-Altman plot analyses were used to estimate the validity and reliability between the AMoR platform and the video for step counting, time spent sitting/lying, and postural changes from sit-to-stand (SI-ST) and sit-to-stand (ST-SI).

Objective: This systematic review aimed to determine which interventions increase physical activity (PA) and decrease sedentary behavior (SB) based on objective measures of movement behavior in individuals with stroke.

Data Sources: The PubMed (Medline), EMBASE, Scopus, CINAHL (EBSCO), and Web of Science databases were searched for articles published up to January 3, 2023.

Study Selection: The StArt 3.
