... Abstract The topic of nutrition in disease recovery is extremely broad as the impact of nutrition is so great on so many disease processes and outcomes. To take a recent example, the COVID-19 pandemic has shone a light on those in society who are most vulnerable, with many of these groups...

.... In this chronological review, we propose following some of the historical descriptions of cognitive recovery, and the suggested procedures and therapies to improve this recovery from mythological periods and the antiquity to recent contemporary periods and the birth of formal neuropsychological rehabilitation...

... Abstract Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with both short- and long-term clinical consequences including progression to chronic kidney disease. Recovery of renal function has gained importance, as interventions to prevent or treat AKI are limited. Basing recovery...

... Abstract Until recently, patients surviving an episode of acute kidney injury (AKI) were assumed to have a good renal prognosis. This belief was predominantly based on studies that used heterogeneous AKI definitions and that considered renal recovery as dialysis independence at hospital...

... fracture required to function independently. The Baltimore Hip Studies (BHS) is a program of research that for more than 30 years has been doing investigations to identify, develop, and evaluate strategies to optimize recovery from hip fracture. This paper provides an overview of known outcomes...

... cell complex (GCC) thickness and its possible correlation with visual recovery after vitreoretinal surgery for idiopathic ERM. We analyzed best-corrected visual acuity, mean macular thickness and mean GCC thickness 1 day before surgery, and 7 and 180 days after surgery. Internal segment/outer segment...

... Abstract Injuries are an unavoidable aspect of participation in physical activity. Nutrition is important for optimal wound healing and recovery, but little information about nutritional support for injuries exists. Immediately following injury, wound healing begins with an inflammatory...

... Abstract Stroke is a leading cause of disability. After initial stabilization, neurologic recovery takes place even in the acute phase. Well-known recovery mechanisms from stroke deficits are improvement from diaschisis, or functional reorganization of the ipsilesional or contralesional cortex...

... networks have a substantial capacity to reorganize after a focal ischemic (or hemorrhagic) brain lesion. This functional reorganization contributes to functional recovery after stroke. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) provides a valuable tool to capture the spatial and temporal activity changes...

... or permanent disabilities, ranging from mild cognitive impairments to gross deficits, motor injuries and altered sensorium. To appreciate and understand the crucial role of white matter in functional recovery, noninvasive imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are important clinical...

... Abstract The identification of strategies by which the central nervous system (CNS) can transform itself in response to injury has incited the systematic exploration of methods to enhance neurological recovery after CNS injury. Several pharmaceuticals have been shown to promote such recovery...

... bands which are considered effective tools to monitor motor imagery and may effectively be combined with actual motor performance [ 6 , 7 ]. Not even the most intense training program combined with optimal brain plasticity and treatment leads to full recovery in all patients. When patients do...

... Abstract The neural mechanisms that support aphasia recovery are not yet fully understood. It has been argued that the functional reorganization of language networks after left-hemisphere stroke may engage perilesional left brain areas as well as homologous right-hemisphere regions...

... Abstract An optimal post-exercise nutrition regimen is fundamental for ensuring recovery. Therefore, research has aimed to examine post-exercise nutritional strategies for enhanced training stimuli. Chocolate milk has become an affordable recovery beverage for many athletes, taking the place...

...>-carnitine supplementation could impact exercise and recovery were explored. Based on findings from cardiovascular research that <smlcap>L</smlcap>-carnitine enhances vascular endothelial function, an alternate hypothesis was developed. The hypothesis is centered on improving blood flow to muscle...

... support, early supplemental parenteral nutrition should be considered in selected high-risk patients. Thus, risk stratification of patients upon admission to the ICU can be helpful to design individualized nutritional prescriptions maximizing benefit while avoiding potential interference with recovery...

... recovery from glycogen depleting exercise in humans. J Physiol 2003;548:919-928 37. Van Loon LJC, Schrauwen-Hinderling VB, Koopman R, et al: Influence of prolonged endurance exercise and recovery diet on intramuscular triglyceride content in trained males. Am J Physiol 2003;285:E804-E811 38...

... Abstract Predicting recovery of renal function following acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the top ten questions in the field of AKI research. Accurate prediction would help physicians distinguish patients with poor renal prognosis in whom further therapy is likely to be futile from those who...

... will be to summarize this body of literature. The notion of recovery in schizophrenia does not yet have a consensus or gold standard definition, and there appear to be at least 2 domains to recovery, the functional and the subjective. These 2 domains reflect somewhat distinct ideologies and approaches to outcome...
