Activity monitor placed at the non-paretic ankle is accurate in measuring step counts during community walking in post-stroke individuals : a validation study
(Wiley, 2019-01-28)Background: Different environmental factors may affect the accuracy of step-count activity monitors (AM). However, the validationconditions for AM accuracy largely differ from ecological environments.Objectives: To assess and compare the accuracy of ... -
Slow and faster post-stroke walkers have a different trunk progression and braking impulse during gait
(Elsevier, 2018-12-26)Background Braking forces absorbed by the leading paretic limb are greater than expected with regard to gait speed and not correlated with propulsive forces generated by the non-paretic limb in individuals with severe hemiparesis. Altered foot placement ... -

Hypotension in hepatic encephalopathy
(Wiley, 2020-12-31)Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a debilitating neurological complication of cirrhosis. By definition, HE is considered a reversible disorder, and therefore HE should resolve following liver transplantation (LT). However, persisting neurological complications ... -
The social dynamics involved in recovery and return to sport following a sport-related concussion : a study of three athlete-teammate-coach triads
(Elsevier, 2020-10-09)An athlete's connection to their team and team members is an important part of their sport experience. However, researchers currently know little about the nature of these social dynamics with respect to concussed athletes. Our study explored athletes' ... -
Impact of uric acid on liver injury and intestinal permeability following resuscitated hemorrhagic shock in rats
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2020-07-06)BACKGROUND Multiorgan failure is a consequence of severe ischemia-reperfusion injury after traumatic hemorrhagic shock (HS), a major cause of mortality in trauma patients. Circulating uric acid (UA), released from cell lysis, is known to activate ... -
