Abstract
Introduction Cognitive and motor impairments are common among stroke survivors. Physical therapy is often used to improve the functional capacity of stroke survivors. However, limited adherence to rehabilitation programs is a challenge. Motivation plays a crucial role in the success of rehabilitation programs as it influences individual adherence to treatment and overall health outcomes. This review aims to identify current trends in motivational strategies used by healthcare professionals for stroke survivor rehabilitation. Methods Following the framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley, a scoping review was conducted. We performed a literature search using MEDLINE, CINAHL, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Nursing & Allied Health, and MedicLatina databases. Results A total of 906 papers were identified. After selecting and analyzing the articles, 17 papers were included in this review. Health professionals use various strategies to motivate stroke survivors. These approaches include establishing a therapeutic alliance, improving patients' health literacy, defining realistic goals, fostering problem-solving skills, personalizing the rehabilitation program, showcasing success stories, utilizing persuasive techniques, offering encouragement and compliments, providing emotional support, and effectively managing symptoms. Conclusion The knowledge gathered in this review can guide healthcare professionals in helping patients overcome barriers to rehabilitation, improve their motivation, and ultimately enhance their recovery outcomes.

Prevalence and Associations of Nonglaucomatous Optic Nerve Atrophy in High Myopia: The Ural Eye and Medical Study. Ophthalmology 2023; 130:1174-1181. [PMID: 37468113 DOI: 10.1016/j.ophtha.2023.07.014] [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: 06/05/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/21/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the prevalence of nonglaucomatous optic nerve atrophy (NGOA) in highly myopic individuals. DESIGN Population-based study. PARTICIPANTS The Ural Eye and Medical Study included 5899 (80.5%) of 7328 eligible individuals (80.5%). METHODS Nonglaucomatous optic nerve atrophy, graded into 5 arbitrary stages, was characterized by decreased visibility of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) on photographs, neuroretinal rim pallor, abnormally thin retinal arteriole diameter, and abnormally thin peripapillary RNFL as measured by OCT. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Nonglaucomatous optic nerve atrophy prevalence and degree. RESULTS Of 5709 participants (96.9%) with axial length measurements, 130 individuals (2.3%) were highly myopic, of whom 116 individuals (89.2%; age, 57.8 ± 11.1 years; axial length, 27.0 ± 1.2 mm) had available fundus photographs and OCT images and were included into the study. Nonglaucomatous optic nerve atrophy prevalence was 34/116 individuals (29.3%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 21.0-38.0), and mean NGOA degree in eyes with NGOA was 1.7 ± 1.0 arbitrary units. Higher NGOA degree correlated (multivariable analysis; regression coefficient, r2 = 0.59) with longer axial length (β, 0.22; P = 0.007), wider temporal parapapillary γ zone width (β, 0.50; P < 0.001), higher prevalence of diabetes (β, 0.20; P = 0.005), and higher systolic blood pressure (β, 0.15; P = 0.03). Higher NGOA prevalence was associated with longer axial length (odds ratio [OR], 7.45; 95% CI, 2.15-25.7), wider temporal parapapillary γ zone (OR, 6.98; 95% CI, 2.61-18.7), and higher systolic blood pressure (OR, 1.05; 95% CI, 1.01-1.10). CONCLUSIONS In this ethnically mixed population from Russia with an age of 40 years or more, high axial myopia showed a relatively high prevalence of NGOA, increasing with longer axial length and wider temporal parapapillary γ zone. For each 1 mm of axial elongation and γ zone widening, the odds for NGOA increased 7.45-fold and 6.98-fold, respectively. The axial elongation-associated and γ zone-related increase in the distance between the retinal ganglion cells and the optic disc may lead to a lengthening and stretching of the retinal ganglion cell axons and may be of importance pathogenetically. In highly myopic eyes, NGOA may be a reason for visual field and central visual acuity loss, unexplainable by myopic macular pathologic features.

[PMID: 36585290 DOI: 10.1016/j.preteyeres.2022.101156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 28.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Revised: 10/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Myopic axial elongation is associated with various non-pathological changes. These include a decrease in photoreceptor cell and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell density and retinal layer thickness, mainly in the retro-equatorial to equatorial regions; choroidal and scleral thinning pronounced at the posterior pole and least marked at the ora serrata; and a shift in Bruch's membrane opening (BMO) occurring in moderately myopic eyes and typically in the temporal/inferior direction. The BMO shift leads to an overhang of Bruch's membrane (BM) into the nasal intrapapillary compartment and BM absence in the temporal region (i.e., parapapillary gamma zone), optic disc ovalization due to shortening of the ophthalmoscopically visible horizontal disc diameter, fovea-optic disc distance elongation, reduction in angle kappa, and straightening/stretching of the papillomacular retinal blood vessels and retinal nerve fibers. Highly myopic eyes additionally show an enlargement of all layers of the optic nerve canal, elongation and thinning of the lamina cribrosa, peripapillary scleral flange (i.e., parapapillary delta zone) and peripapillary choroidal border tissue, and development of circular parapapillary beta, gamma, and delta zone. Pathological features of high myopia include development of macular linear RPE defects (lacquer cracks), which widen to round RPE defects (patchy atrophies) with central BM defects, macular neovascularization, myopic macular retinoschisis, and glaucomatous/glaucoma-like and non-glaucomatous optic neuropathy. BM thickness is unrelated to axial length. Including the change in eye shape from a sphere in emmetropia to a prolate (rotational) ellipsoid in myopia, the features may be explained by a primary BM enlargement in the retro-equatorial/equatorial region leading to axial elongation.

Am J Ophthalmol 2022; 244:68-78. [PMID: 35970207 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajo.2022.08.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/30/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the relationship between axial length (AL) and choriocapillaris (CC) flow deficits percentage (FD%) in non-pathological highly myopic eyes. DESIGN Prospective cross-sectional study. METHODS This study included Chinese patients with non-pathological high myopia, which was defined by an AL of > 26 mm and a META-PM classification grade of <2. Swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography was used to obtain 6 × 6 mm images of the macular CC. The CC FD% was measured in the fovea, parafovea, and perifovea subfields. RESULTS A total of 1017 individuals (1017 eyes) with a mean age of 35.95 ± 14.11 years were included. After adjusting for age, sex, intraocular pressure, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, and image quality score, the overall CC FD% increased by 0.27% (95% CI 0.02, 0.52; P = .034) for each mm increase in AL. Among subfields, longer AL was associated with a higher CC FD% in the perifovea (β = 0.53, 95% CI 0.30, 0.77; P < .001), and was not associated with a higher CC FD% in the parafovea (β = 0.08, 95% CI -0.26, 0.42; P = .652) and fovea (β = 0.001, 95% CI -0.50, 0.50; P = .999). CONCLUSIONS The CC FD% increased with a longer AL in high myopia in the perifovea region but not in the fovea and parafovea fields. These findings may be of interest in elucidating the etiology of myopic axial elongation.

Classification of Visual Field Abnormalities in Highly Myopic Eyes without Pathologic Change. Ophthalmology 2022; 129:803-812.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a classification system of visual field (VF) abnormalities in highly myopic eyes with and without glaucoma. DESIGN Secondary analysis of VF data from a longitudinal cohort study. PARTICIPANTS One thousand eight hundred ninety-three VF tests from 1302 eyes (825 individuals). METHODS All participants underwent VF testing (Humphrey 24-2 Swedish interactive threshold algorithm standard program; Carl Zeiss Meditec) and detailed ophthalmic examination. A comprehensive set of VF defect patterns was defined via observation of the 1893 VF reports, literature review, and consensus meetings. The classification system comprised 4 major types of VF patterns, including normal type, glaucoma-like defects (paracentral defect, nasal step, partial arcuate defect, arcuate defect), high myopia-related defects (enlarged blind spot, vertical step, partial peripheral rim, nonspecific defect), and combined defects (nasal step with enlarged blind spot). A subset (n = 1000) of the VFs was used to evaluate the interobserver and intraobserver agreement and weighted κ values of the classification system by 2 trained readers. The prevalence of various VF patterns and their associated factors were determined. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The classification of VF in highly myopic eyes and its associated risk factors. RESULTS We found that normal type, glaucoma-like defects, high myopia-related defects, and combined defects accounted for 74.1%, 10.8%, 15.0%, and 0.1% of all unique VF tests, respectively. The interobserver and intraobserver agreements were > 89%, and the corresponding κ values were 0.86 or more between readers. Both glaucoma-like and high myopia-related VF defects were associated with older age (odds ratios [ORs], 1.07 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.04-1.10; P < 0.001] and 1.06 [95% CI, 1.04-1.10; P < 0.001]) and longer axial length (ORs, 1.65 [95% CI, 1.32-2.07; P < 0.001] and 1.37 [95% CI, 1.11-1.68; P = 0.003]). Longer axial length showed a stronger effect on the prevalence of glaucoma-like VF defects than on the prevalence of high myopia-related VF defects (P = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS We propose a new and reproducible classification system of VF abnormalities for nonpathologic high myopia. Applying a comprehensive classification system will facilitate communication and comparison of findings among studies.

Wang YX, Panda-Jonas S, Jonas JB. Optic nerve head anatomy in myopia and glaucoma, including parapapillary zones alpha, beta, gamma and delta: Histology and clinical features. Prog Retin Eye Res 2020; 83:100933. [PMID: 33309588 DOI: 10.1016/j.preteyeres.2020.100933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 79] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2020] [Revised: 11/22/2020] [Accepted: 11/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
The optic nerve head can morphologically be differentiated into the optic disc with the lamina cribrosa as its basis, and the parapapillary region with zones alpha (irregular pigmentation due to irregularities of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and peripheral location), beta zone (complete RPE loss while Bruch's membrane (BM) is present), gamma zone (absence of BM), and delta zone (elongated and thinned peripapillary scleral flange) within gamma zone and located at the peripapillary ring. Alpha zone is present in almost all eyes. Beta zone is associated with glaucoma and may develop due to a IOP rise-dependent parapapillary up-piling of RPE. Gamma zone may develop due to a shift of the non-enlarged BM opening (BMO) in moderate myopia, while in highly myopic eyes, the BMO enlarges and a circular gamma zone and delta zone develop. The ophthalmoscopic shape and size of the optic disc is markedly influenced by a myopic shift of BMO, usually into the temporal direction, leading to a BM overhanging into the intrapapillary compartment at the nasal disc border, a secondary lack of BM in the temporal parapapillary region (leading to gamma zone in non-highly myopic eyes), and an ocular optic nerve canal running obliquely from centrally posteriorly to nasally anteriorly. In highly myopic eyes (cut-off for high myopia at approximately -8 diopters or an axial length of 26.5 mm), the optic disc area enlarges, the lamina cribrosa thus enlarges in area and decreases in thickness, and the BMO increases, leading to a circular gamma zone and delta zone in highly myopic eyes.
