MetroHealth Rehabilitation Institute, Metrohealth System, Cleveland, OH, USA; Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, OH, USA.
Objectives: Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a therapeutic option for those with chronic pain due to persistent spinal pain syndrome (PSPS). Current literature suggests a higher rate of SCS explant in female patients, but evidence regarding sex differences in the rates of receiving SCS therapy is limited. We do not know whether there is a disparity between female and male patients who receive SCS therapy.

Little is known about how perceptions of HCV and treatment have changed despite simplifications in testing and treatment in carceral settings. Nineteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with people living with or having a history of HCV infection released from Quebec provincial prison.

Stroke is a global health issue caused by reduced blood flow to the brain, which leads to severe motor disabilities. Measuring oxygen levels in the brain tissue is crucial for understanding the severity and evolution of stroke. While CT or fMRI scans are preferred for confirming a stroke due to their high sensitivity, Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS)-based systems could be an alternative for monitoring stroke evolution.

Background/objectives: Dietary protein intake can potentially influence renal function. This study aimed to elucidate the association between dietary protein supplementation and a decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in Japanese stroke patients undergoing rehabilitation.
Methods: From July 2017 to June 2021, 60 patients undergoing post-stroke rehabilitation were randomly assigned to a rehabilitation alone or rehabilitation nutrition group, which received 120 g Reha-Time Jelly after each session.
