Article Abstract
Background: The activities of daily life (ADL) of stroke patients generally improves after rehabilitation. However, some patients remain at risk of ADL deterioration in the future. So far, there have been few studies on the factors related to ADL deterioration in stroke patients.
Objective: To identify the factors related to ADL deterioration in stroke patients with independent mobility after discharge.
Methods: We assessed 336 stroke patients with independent mobility who were discharged from the rehabilitation center between January 2016 and December 2018. The primary outcome was ADL deterioration, defined as that ADL assessed at 2 years after discharge decreased more than 15 points compared with that assessed at discharge. Univariate and multivariate statistical analyses were conducted to screen for factors related to ADL deterioration.
Results: Overall, 62 (18.4%) patients exhibited ADL deterioration at 2 years after discharge.Age (OR = 1.114, 95%CI = 1.045-1.188, = 0.001), vascular risk factors>3 (OR = 3.269, 95%CI = 1.189-8.986, = 0.022) and with post-stroke depression (OR = 2.486, 95%CI = 1.011-6.114, = 0.047) were risk factors for ADL deterioration in stroke patients. In contrast, elevated Berg Balance Scale (BBS) scores at discharge was a protective factor for ADL deterioration (OR = 0.484, 95%CI = 0.386-0.606, < 0.001).
Conclusions: Nearly 1 in 5 stroke patients with independent mobility experienced ADL deterioration at 2 years after discharge. Aging, vascular risk factors>3, BBS at discharge, and post-stroke depression (PSD) were identified as factors associated with ADL deterioration.

Background: Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a fatal alpha-synucleinopathy characterized by variable combinations of parkinsonism and autonomic and cerebellar dysfunctions.
Objective: We aimed to prospectively study the natural history of probable MSA, including cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction (CAD) and serum alpha-synuclein.
Methods: Sixty probable MSA patients (MSA-P = 19; MSA-C = 41) and 30 age-and-gender-matched healthy controls were recruited.

Background: With global super-aging, understanding the longitudinal changes in activities of daily living (ADLs) among older adults is critical for maintaining their functional independence, particularly in later life. However, evidence of longitudinal ADL patterns in Asian octogenarians remains limited. This study examined 6-year ADL transition patterns among community-dwelling older adults in Japan aged 85 years or above using latent transition analysis (LTA) to identify dynamic changes and associated factors.

Correction surgery for adult spinal deformity (ASD) reduces disability but may lead to spinal stiffness. Cultural diversity may also influence how this stiffness affects daily life. We aimed to evaluate the impact of correction surgery on Japanese patients with ASD using a newly developed questionnaire and to clarify how these patients adapt to their living environment postoperatively in response to spinal stiffness.

Pain, decreased muscle strength, regression in activities of daily living (ADL), narrowing of joint range of motion (ROM), impairment of proprioceptive sense, and deterioration in static-dynamic balance are frequently observed in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The aim of this study is to examine the effect of nonimmersive virtual reality (NIVR) application on muscle excitability and motor neuron pool activation level around the knee, balance, proprioception, physical function level, independence levels in ADL, muscle endurance, and patient satisfaction in patients with KOA. Forty patients with KOA were randomized to an experimental group (EG; = 20) and a sham-controlled group (SG; = 20).
