Objectives: To compare balance, foot function and mobility in patients with rheumatoid arthritis without orthoses. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Outpatient rheumatology clinic. Subjects: A total of 94 subjects were randomized; these, 81 included the analyses (Intervention group: 40; Control 41). Intervention: The Intervention Group received custom-made orthoses while none intervention. Main measure: “Foot Function Index,” “Berg Balance Scale,” “Timed-up-and-go Test” assessed...
In a longitudinal case-control observational study, we evaluated the benefits of self-management programme for hands developed patients with SSc.Patients SSc included in intervention group (IG) received concise emphasis on hand exercises and were during 24 weeks regarding pain, function, range motion, grip tip key pinch strength. Results compared control (CG) no using an analysis variance repeated measures variables transformed into ranks (P ≤ 0.05). Effect sizes calculated Cohen's test.Of...
<h3>Background</h3> Feet are involved in 90%of Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. The Structural Index Score(SIS) is a score that evaluates forefoot and rearfoot aspects. Although it has been used as clinical tool to quantify foot deformities RA, its relevance practice uncertain. <h3>Objectives</h3> aim of this study was evaluate the relation SIS with function, disability physical performance tests RA. <h3>Methods</h3> 104 RA patients outpatient clinic Rheumatology/Unicamp were evaluated...
<h3>Background</h3> Rheumatoid patients(RA)are known to have an increased falls incidence with a threefold risk of hip fracture. Few studies been conducted evaluate the relation between falls, disease activity, disability and physical functioning. <h3>Objectives</h3> To prevalence in RA its performance tests. <h3>Methods</h3> 113 patients were evaluated from outpatient clinic Rheumatology Division State University Campinas/Unicamp. Patients assessed for occurrence last year, fear falling,...
<h3>Background:</h3> Rheumatoid patients(RA)have increased rate of falls and an impaired balance. Foot orthoses are commonly used in RA. Despite the evidence pain relief with foot orthoses, it is not clear if their use can improve or even impair balance <h3>Objectives:</h3> The aim this study was to evaluate effect on RA patients. <h3>Methods:</h3> 94 patients outpatient clinic Rheumatology Division Unicamp were randomly assigned intervention group/IG(n=48)with control group/CG(n=46)without...
Originally described by Leri and Joanny in 1922, melorheostosis is a rare, congenital, non-hereditary disease of unknown etiology. It mixed mesodermal sclerosing bone dysplasia that predominantly affects intramembranous ossification. Both cortical (hyperostosis) adjacent soft tissue structures (sclerosis) are affected, with long bones being the most affected. The main clinical manifestation localized chronic pain, although may be asymptomatic. diagnosis can made, cases, simple radiography...
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an uncommon subtype of peripheral neuropathy (PN) and especially when associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).There are few reports characterizing PN-associated to SLE, in particular CIDP.This study reviewed the frequency profile SLE-related CIDP our SLE cohort. CASE REPORTWe database identify patients SLE.Clinical, laboratory treatment features were described.We identified three cohort 1,349 (0.2%).All female,...
