In this matched case-control study, we sought to determined the association between probiotic use and invasive infections caused by typical probiotic organisms. The odds of probiotic use in cases were 127 times the odds of probiotic use in controls (95% CI, 6.21-2600). Further research into these rare but severe complications is needed.

Background Stroke now represents the condition with the highest need for physical rehabilitation worldwide, with only low or moderate-level evidence testing telerehabilitation compared to in-person care. We compared functional ambulation in subacute patients with stroke following telerehabilitation and matched in-person controls with no biopsychosocial differences at baseline. Methods We conducted a matched case-control study to compare functional ambulation between individuals with stroke following telerehabilitation and in-person rehabilitation, assessed using the Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) and the Functional Independence Measure™ (FIM).
