Abstract:

Background/aims Extracorporeal shockwave therapy has been effective in reducing spasticity in patients with spastic cerebral palsy, but there has yet to be a recommended guideline for the treatment of spasticity in children using extracorporeal shockwave therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of session frequency of radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy on gastrocnemius muscle spasticity in children with spastic cerebral palsy. Methods This was a double-blinded, randomised controlled trial consisting of 14 patients with spastic cerebral palsy (8 boys and 6 girls), aged 5 t

Abstract:

Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) is a neurodegenerative disease most commonly caused by autosomal dominant mutations in the SPG4 gene encoding the microtubule-severing protein spastin. We hypothesise that SPG4-HSP is attributable to reduced spastin function because of haploinsufficiency; thus, therapeutic approaches which elevate levels of the wild-type spastin allele may be an effective therapy. However, until now, how spastin levels are regulated is largely unknown. Here, we show that the kinase HIPK2 regulates spastin protein levels in proliferating cells, in differentiated neurons and i

Abstract:

Late muscular responses to transcranial magnetic stimulation occur in healthy subjects only in tonically active muscles with a proportional relationship between the amount of the EMG-response and the voluntary innervation strength. In hemiparetic stroke patients late potentials are elicited in chronically spastic hand flexors without voluntary background muscular activity probably reflecting enhanced excitability of spinal alpha-motoneurons in the spastic state. When spastic muscle hypertonus has been diminished by sustained muscle stretch late EMG-potentials are reduced or have disappeared co

Abstract:

Cerebral palsy (CP) treatment includes physical therapy and various complementary therapies to the standard clinical treatment. However, there are not many reviews that focus on the methods used and evaluation procedures. This study aims to analyze which tools are most suitable for the evaluation and methodology of patients with CP treated with physical therapy. Following the PRISMA statement, through a PICOS strategy, PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science (WOS), Scopus, Science Direct, and Scielo were searched with the following terms: cerebral palsy AND (physical therapy modalities OR therapeutics)

Objective: To observe the efficacy of oral-facial acupressure combined with oral placement therapy (OPT) in improving articulation clarity in 120 children with spastic cerebral palsy, and to explore effective therapeutic solutions for speech disorders associated with spastic cerebral palsy. Methods: A total of 120 children with spastic cerebral palsy and speech disorders, meeting the inclusion criteria, were randomly assigned into two groups: 60 cases in the treatment group and 60 cases in the control group. The treatment group received orofacial acupressure combined with OPT, while the contro

Abstract:

Hereditary spastic paraplegia is a spectrum of disorders with progressive spasticity of lower limbs with clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Harding classified HSP into pure and complicated forms. Currently classification is largely based on genetics. Around 87 genetic loci were identified till date. We have studied 44 patients presented with spastic ataxia with or without additional neurologic or non-neurological features from February 2021 to February 2024. Out of 44 spastic ataxia cases studied over period of 3 years, 17 patients were positive for SPG genes with 21 variants detected by NGS

Abstract:

Intrathecal baclofen infusion (IBI) is an effective treatment for spasticity secondary to cerebral palsy (CP). The authors retrospectively reviewed the need for orthopedic surgery of the lower extremities in 48 patients with spastic CP who were treated with IBI. Forty pumps were placed in patients suffering from spastic quadriplegia (84%) and eight (16%) in patients with spastic diplegia. The patients' ages ranged from 5 to 43 years (mean 15 years). The mean follow-up period was 53 months (range 22-94 months). The mean baclofen dosage was 306 μg/day (range 25-1350 μg/day). At the time of pump

Abstract:

Peripheral muscle fatigue is a common experience in daily life. Every individual at some point in their life has realized the inability to maintain muscle contraction, a phenomenon known as fatigue. Interestingly, neurological patients with peripheral sequelae such as spastic muscle contraction are able to remain in a pattern of muscle contraction for prolonged periods. The effects of laser therapy are already recognized in muscle contraction to delay skeletal muscle fatigue, prolong physical activity, and reduce delayed onset muscle soreness. However, the effects of photobiomodulation on neur

Method: Subjects were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Participants were classified into 2 groups. Group A was given conventional therapy along with HABIT and group B was given only conventional therapy. Pre and post data was taken using bot-2 scale (bilateral coordination, balance) and WeeFIM scale. Data was collected and statistically analysed. R

After proving diagnosis, the parents took their girl to distinctive pediatrics, orthopedics, physiotherapists, and neurologists. After a comprehensive check, we discussed the use of stem cells, the parents accepted and verbally consented. Later, after four sequential months of one injection per month of stem cells injections, the parents noticed gradual advancement of the mentioned girl state. Stem cell therapy modulates cerebral

Abstract:

To determine the effect of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in improving hand function and reduction in severity of mirror movements in children with spastic cerebral palsy who have mirror movement disorder. Spastic hemiplegic CP children of either gender, aged six to 16 years, with mirror movements of grade 1 and 2 who were able to make a gross grip, were included in this single arm feasibility study. CIMT was provided as an intervention to these children for six hours per day for 10 consecutive week days. Woods and Teuber criteria was applied for the assessment of mirror movements.
