Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify prognostic factors for return to work (RTW) after stroke. DATA SOURCES PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane, and Embase were systematically searched. STUDY SELECTION Studies had to include people of working age (<65 years old) at the time of stroke (ischemic, hemorrhagic, or subarachnoid hemorrhage). The evaluation of RTW and rate of RTW had to be mentioned. Study selection was done by 2 independent authors. In total, 1241 articles were screened, 39 met all inclusion criteria. DATA EXTRACTION Characteristics of included studies were recorded independently by 2 authors. Differences were resolved through discussion or with a third author. Quality was assessed using the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network quality assessment tool. DATA SYNTHESIS Among the 39 studies, prognostic factors for RTW were hemorrhagic stroke (odds ratio 0.53 [95% confidence interval 0.45-0.60], n=18 studies), sex (men) (1.26 [1.14-1.40], n=31), aphasia (0.37 [0.20-0.69], n=7), occupation (white collar worker) (1.84 [1.64-2.06], n=17), independence in activities of daily living (3.99 [1.73-9.23], n=7), and stroke severity (NIHSS) (1.23 [1.08-1.39], n=6). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis highlighted positive and negative prognostic factors associated with RTW after stroke. Two categories were distinguished: modifiable and non-modifiable prognostic factors. This study provides information to help understand the issues, set appropriate objectives and implement appropriate strategies to guide people to RTW after stroke. Randomized controlled studies are needed to better evaluate work-place intervention programs as well as the effects of intravenous thrombolysis, and cognitive and neuropsychological rehabilitation on return-to-work rates after stroke.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the impact of pre-existing anxiety and depression disorders on return to work (RTW) using a phase-based approach. METHODS Accepted lost-time workers' compensation claims for upper limb or spine strain or sprain from 2009 to 2013 were extracted for workers in the Canadian province of British Columbia (n = 78,186). Pre-existing anxiety and depression disorders were identified using health claims data. Probability of RTW following a first or second work lost-time episode was analyzed using Prentice, Williams and Peterson models for recurrent events (common hazards ratios (cHR)). Probability of a first lost-time recurrence was analyzed using Cox models (HR). All models included two years of follow up and were stratified by gender. RESULTS For men, anxiety alone (cHR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.85 to 0.94) or comorbid with depression (cHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92 to 0.99) was significantly associated with a lower probability of RTW, and comorbid anxiety and depression with a higher probability of recurrence (HR = 1.29, 95% CI: 1.13 to 1.48). In women, comorbid anxiety and depression was significantly associated with a lower probability of RTW (cHR = 0.96, 95% CI: 0.93 to 0.99) and a higher probability of recurrence (HR = 1.15, 95% CI: 1.04 to 1.28); and anxiety alone with a higher probability of recurrence (HR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.09 to 1.43). There was little evidence that depression alone was associated with RTW or recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Workers with a pre-existing anxiety disorder may require additional supports both during lost-time and after initial RTW.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury (TBI) impacts an individual's workforce involvement post-injury. Support services and workplace accommodations that can help with work re-integration post-TBI may differ based on a person's sex and gender. The added impact of COVID-19 remains under-explored. OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the support services and workplace accommodation needs and the impact of COVID-19 on work and mental health for persons with TBI, considering sex and gender. METHODS A cross-sectional online survey was distributed. Descriptive and regression analyses were applied to uncover sex and gender differences, along with content analysis for open-ended responses. RESULTS Thirty-two persons with TBI (62% women, 38% men) participated. Physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and counselling services were indicated as the most needed services by women and men. Modified hours/days and modified/different duties were the most needed workplace accommodations. Mental challenges impacting well-being was a highlighted concern for both men and women. Women scored poorer on the daily activity domain of the Quality of Life after Brain Injury - Overall Scale (p = 0.02). Assistance with daily activities was highlighted by women for a successful transition to work, including housekeeping and caregiving. Men were more likely than women to experience change in employment status because of COVID-19 (p = 0.02). Further, a higher percentage of men expressed concern about the inability to pay for living accommodations, losing their job, and not having future job prospects. CONCLUSION Findings reveal important differences between men and women when transitioning to work post-TBI and emphasize the need for sex and gender considerations.
