The concurrent validity and test-retest reliability of a submaximal exercise test in adolescents with autism
CONCLUSION: The ART is an accessible and promising method to monitor submaximal CRF levels over time but is less appropriate to estimate maximal CRF levels in this population.PMID:38644598 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2340704 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Oxygen-ozone therapy for pain relief in patients with trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis: a proof-of-concept study
CONCLUSIONS: A combination of O2O3 injections and physical therapy might be considered in patients with TMC-OA. Further investigation is warranted to assess the effectiveness of O2O3 therapy in managing TMC-OA.PMID:38644616 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2342491 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Validation of the Psychological Empowerment Scale and Client-Centered Care Questionnaire in budget holders with disabilities
CONCLUSIONS: The findings show that both scales are valid and internally consistent, meaning that they can be further tested in a respondent sample of people with disabilities and in other care contexts.PMID:38644617 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2343417 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Effects of motor imagery training on gait performance in individuals after stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: MIT effectively improved gait performance. The findings in individuals after stroke remain inconclusive due to significant heterogeneity in included studies.PMID:38638087 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2337091 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Similarities and differences in factors associated with high and low sedentary behavior after stroke: a mixed methods study
CONCLUSIONS: Factors affecting activity engagement differed between people who are more and less sedentary. Interventions that aim to reduce post-stroke sedentary behavior should consider the: (1) types of activities, (2) role of other people, and (2) application of strategies to overcome activity and environment-related barriers.PMID:38632899 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2341867 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Exploring access to community neurorehabilitation for people with progressive neurological conditions: a qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: This study adds depth to our understanding of the complexity, and the roles and needs of people with PNCs and HCPs, in accessing community neurorehabilitation. Further research is needed to determine how best to empower people to access rehabilitation.PMID:38632940 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2338198 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Motor proficiency of persons with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or autism spectrum disorder diagnosed in adulthood
CONCLUSIONS: Motor proficiency is impaired in most persons with ADHD or ASD diagnosed in adulthood, suggesting that motor assessment should be included in clinical examinations of adults with suspected neurodevelopment disorders.PMID:38632964 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2340123 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)
