Abstract:

Background The correct identification of patients with Parkinson disease (PD) at risk for falling is important to initiate appropriate treatment early. Objective This study compared the Fullerton Advanced Balance (FAB) scale with the Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Mini-BESTest) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) to identify individuals with PD at risk for falls and to analyze which of the items of the scales best predict future falls. Design This was a prospective study to assess predictive criterion-related validity. Setting The study was conducted at a university hospital in an urban commun

Background. There is growing evidence that cognitive and motor functions after traumatic brain injury (TBI) are actually related. However, we failed to find any concrete evidence proving the interrelationship between balance and cognitive functions therefore the effects of TBI on cognitive and motor functions remain not fully evaluated. Objective. The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between the recovery of balance and cognitive functions during physiotherapy in patients with TBI. The methods of the study.

Although preliminary evidence supports the psychophysical benefits of dance for adults with Parkinson disease, guidelines for community-based dance programs await further scrutiny for safety and efficacy. This pilot study was designed to assess the feasibility of an intensive trial of group-delivered modern dance for 11 adults with early-to-middle stage Parkinson’s. The Timed ‘‘Up and Go’’ test and the Fullerton Advanced Balance scale were administered to assess balance safety and re-administered at closure along with a self-reported feedback questionnaire.

Aims: Breast cancer is an important health problem with the second mortality rate in cancer-related deaths in women. After mastectomy and radiotherapy, shoulder and upper extremity mobility may decrease, trunk and upper extremity muscles may weaken, and biomechanical and functional balance may be impaired in women who have survived breast cancer. In addition, increased limb volume due to breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) may impair static and dynamic balance.
