The reliability of the MoTaStim-Foot trial algorithm for testing touch pressure sensory threshold on the plantar surface of the foot using Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Harding, O., Rousan, A., Aries, A., & Hunter, S. (2019). The reliability of the MoTaStim-Foot trial algorithm for testing touch pressure sensory threshold on the plantar surface of the foot using Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments.

Introduction: Approximately 60% of stroke survivors experience sensory impairment, which may have an impact on functional activity. The MoTaStim-Foot trial investigated the feasibility of delivering somatosensory interventions to the foot to regain b...

Subjective versus objective assessments of sleep among middle aged male patients after coronary artery bypass grafting: A correlational study (2019)
Journal Article
Atef, H., Helmy, Z., Ahmed Farghaly, A., & Elameen, S. (2019). Subjective versus objective assessments of sleep among middle aged male patients after coronary artery bypass grafting: A correlational study. Sleep and Hypnosis, 21(3), 254-263. https://doi.org/10.37133/Sleep.Hypn.43326

Sleep quality is a complex construct to evaluate empirically, and yet the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is commonly used in studies as their only measure of sleep quality. Furthermore, the PSQI may not be the best sleep quality measure for old...

Journal Article
(2019). Spatial Neglect in Stroke: Identification, Disease Process and Association with Outcome During Inpatient Rehabilitation. Brain Sciences, https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci9120374

We established spatial neglect prevalence, disease profile and amount of therapy that inpatient stroke survivors received, and outcomes at discharge using Sentinel Stroke National Audit Programme (SSNAP) data. We used data from 88,664 National Health... Read More about Spatial Neglect in Stroke: Identification, Disease Process and Association with Outcome During Inpatient Rehabilitation..
