Modern rehabilitation medicine focuses on evaluating and treating patients whose quality of life has been compromised by medical conditions. This field endeavors to enhance well-being and independence levels by adopting a comprehensive approach that addresses physical, mental, psychological, and social aspects, while incorporating advancements in medical research. Grounded in the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) model by the World Health Organization, rehabilitation targets diverse levels of functional impairment. A collaborative effort among professionals from various disciplines characterizes the rehabilitative process, guided by an Individual Rehabilitation Project, and oversight by a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation. Through initiated prompt post-injury, rehabilitation progresses through hospital-based interventions and extends to community-based therapies upon the patient's return home. In this special edition of "Harefuah" readers will find profound scientific articles and literature reviews spanning a breadth of topics within the realm of physical medicine and rehabilitation. These insights offer a glimpse into the expansive domain of rehabilitation medicine.

Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA) is a valuable tool for evaluating hydration and body composition, but its application in subacute post-stroke patients remains unexplored. This study aimed to fill this gap by analyzing BIVA in a cohort of 87 subacute post-stroke patients (42 women, mean age 69 ± 12) undergoing rehabilitation. At admission (T0), diagnosis of malnutrition with GLIM criteria and of sarcopenia with EWGSOP2 was done, and patients were analyzed with BIVA.

Rotator cuff injury (RCI), characterized by shoulder pain and restricted mobility, represents a subset of tendon-bone insertion injuries (TBI). In the majority of cases, surgical reconstruction of the affected tendons or ligaments is required to address the damage. However, numerous clinical failures have underscored the suboptimal outcomes associated with such procedures.
