Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of energy intake on activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with acute stroke, with a focus on the differences between obese and non-obese patients.
Methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted in a neurological hospital and included patients hospitalized for acute stroke. During the acute phase (1 week after admission), energy intake was assessed, and the main outcome was defined as the Functional Independence Measure in the motor domain (FIM-M) at discharge. All subjects were divided into two groups based on their body mass index (BMI) at admission, with BMI ≥ 25 defining the obese stroke group and BMI < 25 defining the non-obese stroke group. Linear regression analysis was performed to examine the relationship between energy intake and FIM-M in each group.
Results: A total of 307 patients with acute stroke (median age: 72 years) were included in this study, with 118 patients (39%) in the obese stroke group. In the non-obese stroke group, a significant and independent relationship was observed between FIM-M and energy intake (β = 0.103, p = 0.031, adjusted R2 = 0.687). However, in the obese stroke group, no significant relationship was found between FIM-M and energy intake (β = 0.076, p = 0.302).
Conclusion: In patients with acute stroke, energy intake positively affects functional outcomes in non-obese patients but not in obese patients. This study highlights the importance of considering obesity as a potential factor in determining energy intake in patients with acute stroke.
期刊介绍:
Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation is the leading journal devoted to the study and dissemination of interdisciplinary, evidence-based, clinical information related to stroke rehabilitation. The journal’s scope covers physical medicine and rehabilitation, neurology, neurorehabilitation, neural engineering and therapeutics, neuropsychology and cognition, optimization of the rehabilitation system, robotics and biomechanics, pain management, nursing, physical therapy, cardiopulmonary fitness, mobility, occupational therapy, speech pathology and communication. There is a particular focus on stroke recovery, improving rehabilitation outcomes, quality of life, activities of daily living, motor control, family and care givers, and community issues.
The journal reviews and reports clinical practices, clinical trials, state-of-the-art concepts, and new developments in stroke research and patient care. Both primary research papers, reviews of existing literature, and invited editorials, are included. Sharply-focused, single-issue topics, and the latest in clinical research, provide in-depth knowledge.
