Correlation testing revealed a strong positive correlation that was statistically significant. Representation of road injury; interpersonal violence; fire, heat, and hot substances; mechanical forces; poisonings, adverse effect of medical treatment, and animal contact was well aligned with respect to DALY. Representation of falls was greater compared to DALY, while self-harm, exposure to forces of nature, and other transport injury representation was lower compared to DALY. Conclusions and Relevance: CDSR representation of external causes of injury strongly correlates with disease burden. The number of systematic reviews and protocols was well aligned for seven out of 12 causes of injury. These results provide high-quality and transparent data that may guide future prioritisation decisions.]]> Thu 13 Jan 2022 10:29:12 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19897 2peak) assessed preintervention and postintervention via a progressive aerobic exercise test. Results: From 3209 citations identified, 28 studies were included, reporting results for 920 participants. Studies typically included chronic, ambulant participants with mild to moderate deficits; used an aerobic or mixed (with an aerobic component) intervention; and prescribed 3 sessions per week for 30 to 60 minutes per session at a given intensity. Baseline VO_2peak values were low (8-23 mL/kg/min). Meta-analysis of the 12 randomized controlled trials demonstrated overall improvements in VO_2peak of 2.27 (95% confidence interval = 1.58, 2.95) mL/kg/min postintervention. A similar 10% to 15% improvement occurred with both aerobic and mixed interventions and in shorter (≤3 months) and longer (>3 months) length programs. Only 1 study calculated total dose received and only 1 included long-term follow-up. Conclusions: The results demonstrate that interventions with an aerobic component can improve cardiorespiratory fitness poststroke. Further investigation is required to determine effectiveness in those with greater impairment and comorbidities, optimal timing and dose of intervention, whether improvements can be maintained in the longer term, and whether improved fitness results in better function and reduced risk of subsequent cardiovascular events.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:03:49 AEDT ]]>
