Article Abstract
Background: The importance of family resilience in the recovery of stroke patients has been demonstrated in numerous studies. However, little is known about post-stroke family resilience.
Aims: To investigate the family resilience of stroke patients from a patient-caregiver dyadic perspective during the first 6 months after stroke.
Methods: A total of 288 dyads of patients diagnosed with a first-episode stroke and their principal caregivers were recruited from neurology departments of 7 tertiary hospitals in Shanghai and Shangqiu, China. Family resilience and family function were assessed during hospitalisation and at 1, 3 and 6 months after stroke. K-means cluster analysis was used to identify different clusters of family resilience based on family resilience of patients and caregivers during hospitalisation. The STROBE guidelines for observational studies were followed.
Results: Three clusters of family resilience were identified with distinct trajectories: cluster of high resilience (HR), cluster of low resilience (LR) and cluster of discrepant resilience (DR). The level of family function was consistently highest in cluster HR and lowest in cluster with LR at four time points. Most (69.8%) families fell into the cluster with low resilience and low family function. Characteristics such as the Rankin scores and education level of patients, education level of caregivers, family monthly income and living district were different among the three clusters.
Conclusions: We concluded that family resilience was linked to the family functioning of patients with a first-episode stroke, however, the levels of resilience in most families were low. Factors, including the education level, family income and stroke severity of patients were revealed to influence the family resilience and its development.
Relevance To Clinical Practice: A resilience-focused approach to family-related treatment is beneficial for families. Therefore, understanding family resilience among stroke survivors is needed to inform the development of interventions for enhancing the recovery of stroke families.

Family-Centered Rehabilitation and Parenting Resilience in the Care of an Infant Born at 22 Weeks: A Case Study.

This case report describes the implementation of Family-Centered Care (FCC) and developmental occupational therapy (OT) for an extremely preterm infant born at 22 weeks and one day of gestation, weighing 448 g. The infant experienced multiple complications, including necrotizing enterocolitis, sepsis, intraventricular hemorrhage, and respiratory distress, requiring prolonged intensive care. Due to physiological fragility and immature neurobehavior, a structured rehabilitation approach was introduced, integrating OT and caregiver participation based on FCC principles.

Background: Older people face numerous challenges when managing multiple medicines. They are required to cope with complicated and changing medicines regimens and coordinate input from multiple health and social care professionals. When not well managed, medicines can cause harm, and older people are more susceptible to the impact of errors.

This exploratory study surveyed seven contaminated brownfields and Superfund sites in Southern California to identify locally adapted species tolerant of mixed organic and metal contamination under arid and semi-arid conditions. Five novel native plants, including Brickellia californica, Baccharis salicifolia, Baccharis sarothroides, Eriogonum fasciculatum, and Heterotheca grandiflora were identified as hyperaccumulators of copper (Cu), alongside a non-native species from the Asteraceae family, Helminthotheca echioides. Additional metal-accumulating plants (including native plants) for lead (Pb), chromium (Cr), arsenic (As), and nickel (Ni) were identified, and warrant further evaluation for their phytoremediation potential.

Toxic metal ion contamination poses a significant environmental challenge, severely impacting plant growth, development, and reproduction. To cope with metal-induced stress, plants have evolved diverse molecular and physiological mechanisms. Among these, the xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase (XTH) gene family, which encodes enzymes responsible for cell wall remodeling, plays a crucial role in enhancing plant resilience to metal ion stress.
