Post-stroke osteoporosis (PSO) is a common complication encountered in patients after stroke, characterized by a rapid decline in bone mass and disruption of bone microarchitecture, which significantly elevates the risk of fracture. The pathogenesis of PSO is multifaceted, encompassing factors, such as oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, neurological damage, extended immobilization, and hormonal imbalances, culminating in a dysregulation of bone metabolism. Treatment strategies encompass pharmacological interventions, nutritional supplementation, physical exercise, and rehabilitative training. Emerging therapies, such as stem cell therapy and exosome therapy, are being explored for their potential to promote cellular regeneration and modulate inflammatory responses in the treatment of PSO. Future therapeutic approaches should integrate a comprehensive understanding of the multifactorial pathogenesis of PSO to develop tailored treatment plans, aiming to optimize treatment efficacy and improve patients’ quality of life.

ObjectivesRehabilitation is essential for supporting the recovery from, and management of, a range of health conditions. However, interventions are often poorly reported in rehabilitation research, hindering advancement of the field. The Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist was developed to enhance the reporting of interventions, but does not specifically address the complexities and multifaceted nature of rehabilitation interventions. This study aimed to develop an extension of the TIDieR checklist to support better reporting of rehabilitation interventions.DesignA modified Delphi study overseen by a Steering Committee.SettingOnline.ParticipantsRehabilitation experts were purposively sampled for diversity in discipline, practice setting, area of expertise and geographical location.MethodsParticipants (n=35) provided both quantitative and qualitative feedback on drafts of the TIDieR-Rehab through online surveys. Quantitative data was descriptively analysed by percentage of agreement, while qualitative data was analysed using conventional content analysis. Quantitative and qualitative findings were subsequently triangulated to facilitate iterative refinement of the TIDieR-Rehab.ResultsConsensus was achieved after two rounds of the modified Delphi process. The TIDieR-Rehab checklist comprises seven original, three adapted and 12 new reporting items, and is supported by a supplementary manual. Specific enhancements include more detailed descriptions of the study population (Who) and timing of the intervention (When), the planned intervention dosage (How much,How challengingandRegression/Progression), person-centred care (Personalisation) and negative undesired effects (Harms) which were considered critical for the comprehensive reporting of rehabilitation interventions.ConclusionThe TIDieR-Rehab checklist marks a significant advancement in enhancing and standardising the reporting of rehabilitation interventions. By offering a structured format for detailing complex rehabilitation interventions, the TIDieR-Rehab supports improvements in reporting quality to promote research replication and support the translation of research findings into clinical practice. Future research should validate the TIDieR-Rehab checklist across a variety of intervention types and clinical contexts.
Objective To quantitatively describe therapists’ use of coaching with stroke survivors, in a hospital-based rehabilitation setting, to promote perseverance with longer-term practice. Design Prospective observational behavioural mapping study. Setting Rehabilitation unit of a regional public hospital in Queensland, Australia. Main measures A custom-designed behavioural mapping tool was used to collect rehabilitation session contextual data and therapists' use of coaching. Data were captured in 3-minute epochs for a maximum of 30 minutes. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics. Results Thirty-six rehabilitation sessions, including 34 participants (therapists n = 22, stroke survivors n = 12) were observed. Rehabilitation sessions were mostly inpatient ( n = 33, 91.7%), one-on-one ( n = 30, 83.3%), and conducted in the physiotherapy ( n = 160, 45.5%) or occupational therapy ( n = 155, 44.0%) gym. Strategies to promote perseverance were used in 76.7% ( n = 267) of observed epochs. The most frequently used strategy was monitoring the quality of practice and the least frequently used strategy was utilising a support person to facilitate practice. Conclusion Coaching that may promote perseverance with practice was regularly used by therapists during hospital-based rehabilitation sessions. Coaching that may enable longer-term perseverance beyond a therapist-dependent rehabilitation model was less commonly observed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
