The relationship between levels of physical activity and participation in everyday life in stroke survivors: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Disabil Health J 2024:101640. [PMID: 38777677 DOI: 10.1016/j.dhjo.2024.101640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stroke survivors demonstrate decreased physical activity (PA) and take time to return to participation in everyday life, but the relationship between the two variables is unknown. OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation and trajectory over time between levels of PA and participation in everyday life in stroke survivors. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, Rehabilitation&Sport Medicine Source, and PEDro databases were searched from inception to January 2024. Cross-sectional and prospective studies evaluating both levels of PA and participation in stroke survivors were included. Two reviewers independently conducted the study selection, data extraction, and quality assessment. Meta-analyses of pooled correlation coefficients were calculated when at least two studies reported a correlation coefficient between the same PA and participation outcomes. RESULTS Of 4962 studies identified, 49 were included in the systematic review. Studies were rated high (55%%) or fair (45%) quality. A wide range of monitoring methodologies for assessing PA and participation were found in the 23 prospective studies. Seven studies were included in the meta-analyses, showing a positive moderate correlation between PA time and participation in activities of daily living (n = 148; r = 0.52; P < 0.01; I2 = 81%) in participants <6 months post-stroke, and between PA time and the participation in all areas (n = 126; r = 0.44; P < 0.01; I2 = 0%) in participants ≥6 months post-stroke. Overall, while PA showed significant improvements over time, participation only showed a tendency. CONCLUSIONS Despite the heterogeneity, consistent positive associations were found between PA time and participation levels in some areas. Establishing consensus is crucial to reduce heterogeneity and facilitate data pooling.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify similarities and differences in factors affecting activity engagement between adults with stroke who are more and less sedentary. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were pooled from two studies of adults with stroke (N = 36). Sedentary time was measured activPAL micro3. Participants completed activPAL interviews, which were analyzed using framework analysis. Participants were stratified into more and less sedentary groups based on activPAL data. Between-group similarities and differences were identified. RESULTS Adults with stroke (mean [SD] age = 65.8 [13.6] years, stroke chronicity = 40.5 [SD = 38.3] months, 36.1% female) were more sedentary (785.5 [64.7] sedentary minutes/day) and less sedentary (583.6 [87.4] sedentary minutes/day). Those who were more sedentary: engaged in basic activities of daily living, avoided activities, received assistance from other people, and did not use strategies to overcome barriers. Those who were less sedentary: engaged in instrumental and community activities, embraced new strategies, did activities with other people, and used strategies to overcome environmental barriers. 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.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Current interventions are limited in improving use of the more-affected upper limb in real-world daily occupations and functional independence poststroke. A comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing real-world upper limb use is required to develop interventions to improve functional independence poststroke. OBJECTIVE To systematically review the factors that influence real-world use of the more-affected upper limb poststroke. DATA SOURCES We searched MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, and the Physiotherapy Evidence Database for English-language articles from 2012 to 2023. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA COLLECTION Of 774 studies, we included 33 studies that had participants at least age 18 yr who exhibited upper limb impairments poststroke, objectively measured real-world upper limb use using a movement sensor, and measured factors affecting upper limb use. Two reviewers independently screened the abstracts. FINDINGS The results were categorized by International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health domains. Prominent factors were upper limb impairment; motor ability; functional independence; task type; hand dominance; stroke-related factors, including time since stroke; and perception of use of the more-affected upper limb. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Existing interventions primarily focus on upper limb impairments and motor ability. Our findings suggest that interventions should also incorporate other factors: task type (unilateral vs. bilateral), hand dominance, self-efficacy, and perception of more-affected limb use as active ingredients in improving real-world use of the more-affected upper limb poststroke. We also provide recommendations to use behavioral activation theory in designing an occupation-focused intervention to augment self-efficacy and confidence in use of the more-affected upper limb in daily occupations. Plain-Language Summary: In order to develop interventions to improve functional independence poststroke, occupational therapy practitioners must have a comprehensive understanding of the factors that influence real-world more-affected upper limb use. The study findings provide a set of distinct factors that practitioners can target separately or in combination to improve real-world use of the more-affected upper limb poststroke.

Abstract
Purpose Type 2 diabetes and sedentary behavior pose serious health risks in stroke survivors. Using a co-creation framework, this study aimed to develop an intervention in collaboration with stroke survivors with type 2 diabetes, relatives, and cross-sectoral health care professionals to reduce sedentary behavior and increase physical activity. Materials and methods This qualitative explorative study used a co-creation framework consisting of a workshop and focus group interviews with stroke survivors with type 2 diabetes (n = 3), relative (n = 1), and health care professionals (n = 10) to develop the intervention. A content analysis was used to analyze data. Results The developed "Everyday Life is Rehabilitation" (ELiR) intervention consisted of a tailored 12-week home-based behavior change intervention with two consultations of action planning, goal setting, motivational interviewing, and fatigue management including education on sedentary behavior, physical activity, and fatigue. The intervention has a minimalistic setup using a double-page paper "Everyday Life is Rehabilitation" (ELiR) instrument making it implementable and tangible. Conclusions In this study, a theoretical framework was used to develop a tailored 12-week home-based behavior change intervention. Strategies to reduce sedentary behavior and increase physical activity through activities of daily living along with fatigue management in stroke survivors with type 2 diabetes were identified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sedentary time is an independent construct from active time. Previous studies have examined variables associated with sedentary time to inform behavior change programs; however, these studies have lacked data sets that encompass potentially important domains. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to build a more comprehensive model containing previously theorized important predictors of sedentary time and new predictors that have not been explored. We hypothesized that variables representing the domains of physical capacity, psychosocial, physical health, cognition, and environmental would be significantly related to sedentary time in individuals post-stroke. METHODS This was a cross-sectional analysis of 280 individuals with chronic stroke. An activity monitor was used to measure sedentary (i.e. non-stepping) time. Five domains (8 predictors) were entered into a sequential linear regression model: physical capacity (6-Minute Walk Test, assistive device use), psychosocial (Activities Specific Balance Confidence Scale and Patient Health Questionnaire-9), physical health (Charlson Comorbidity Index and body mass index), cognition (Montreal Cognitive Assessment), and environmental (Area Deprivation Index). RESULTS The 6-Minute Walk Test (β = -0.39, p < .001), assistive device use (β = 0.15, p = .03), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (β = 0.16, p = .01), and body mass index (β = 0.11, p = .04) were significantly related to non-stepping time in individuals with chronic stroke. The model explained 28.5% of the variability in non-stepping time. CONCLUSIONS This work provides new perspective on which variables may need to be addressed in programs targeting sedentary time in stroke. Such programs should consider physical capacity, depressive symptoms, and physical health.

Abstract
Significant advancements in acute stroke medical management have changed stroke rehabilitation. In addition, an ever-changing health care ecosystem and heightened awareness of continued and new challenges requires that the occupational therapy profession consider new, innovative, and pragmatic approaches to measurement, intervention, and health services research, and clinical practice. The profession must elevate the focus and rigor of research examining occupation and participation after stroke, and their associations with health. Intervention research must progress beyond early phase pilot studies to a robust collection of meaningful large multisite studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of our interventions and the effectiveness of wide-scale implementation to ensure quality and consistent delivery of evidence-based practices in occupational therapy. These studies must address the accessibility of these practices for all people who have sustained stroke, and particularly those people who are most vulnerable to inaccessible stroke rehabilitation service delivery systems.

Abstract
Objective: To describe patterns of sedentary behavior over 6 weeks among ambulatory people with subacute and chronic stroke.Design: Observational longitudinal study with assessments at baseline (T0) and week 6 (T1).Methods: Community-dwelling people with stroke (n = 39) pooled from two studies who were ≥18 years of age were assessed for sedentary behavior at 2 timepoints (T0, T1). Sedentary behavior was measured with the activPAL micro3 following a 7-day wear protocol to obtain mean daily: total sitting time, sitting time accumulated in bouts ≥30 minutes, number of sit-to-stand transitions, and fragmentation index (sit-to-stand transitions/total sitting hours). Paired samples t-tests were used to calculate mean group differences in sedentary behavior metrics between T0 and T1 (α =.05). Cohen's d was calculated to describe the magnitude of within-person change between T0 and T1.Results: There were no statistically significant within-person differences between T0 and T1 on mean daily sitting time (Cohen's d= -0.21, p=.19), sitting time accumulated in bouts ≥30 minutes (d= -0.27, p=.11), number of sit-to-stand transitions (d= -0.02, p=.53), or the fragmentation index (d= -0.11, p=.92).Conclusions: Sedentary behavior metrics were stable for over 6 weeks. The number of sit-to-stand transitions per day and the fragmentation index appeared to be the most stable indicators over 6 weeks. Future research should confirm these findings and identify correlates of sedentary behavior among people with stroke.
