Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Acute cerebral circulation disorder is known to be one of the main causes of morbidity, mortality, long-term disability, and the overall so-called disability in society. Prevention of acute cerebral circulation disorder, mortality after acute cerebral circulation disorder, methods of rehabilitation after acute cerebral circulation disorder are studied all over the world, but there are so few studies in the literature on the relationship between rehabilitation and survival of patients after acute cerebral circulation disorder. AIM: The aim is to study the features of survival among patients who have suffered from acute cerebral circulation disorder (hereinafter referred to as ACCD) and have undergone rehabilitation. METHODS: Based on the register statistics on cases of acute cerebral circulation disorder among Almaty residents, the association of the fact of rehabilitation with a fatal outcome was studied and a survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meyer method. RESULTS: In patients with acute cerebral circulation disorder who have not undergone rehabilitation, the chances of a fatal outcome increase by 3.830 times, in comparison with patients who have received an appropriate course of recovery. With the postponement of rehabilitation, the probability of death in patients with acute cerebral circulation disorder increased by 6−10%. The average survival rates in patients who did not receive a rehabilitation course are significantly lower compared to those who underwent rehabilitation: the average survival was 87 years (CI95% 87.0−87.0) and 82 years (CI95% 80.3 ÷ 83.7), respectively, (Log-rank test: test statistics χ2 = 7.916, for DF = 1, p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: The main conclusion that can be drawn is that the early rehabilitation care increases the probability of survival among patients who have undergone ACCD. At the same time, the predictive parameters of an unfavorable outcome are the sexual characteristic and the type of acute cerebral circulation disorder.
