Improving HRQOL is the desired outcome for patients with stroke undergoing inpatient rehabilitation services. This study aimed to comprehensively identify potential health-related quality of life (HRQOL) predictors in within first year after stroke; thus far, such an investigation has not been conducted.We enrolled 119 (88 males, 31 females) stroke, and examined 12 predictors: age, sex, type, side, duration onset, cognition (Mini-Mental State Examination; MMSE), depression (Beck Depression...
To assess the balance function of hemiplegic stroke patients and to investigate whether visual feedback rhythmic weight-shift training following acute can decrease falls among with stroke.A prospective study, using a Balance Master.Hospital-based rehabilitation units.Fifty-two (28 in group 24 control group).Conventional programme plus training. Training effect was evaluated by assessing static dynamic performance as well comparing occurrence groups at six-month follow-up.Occurrence falls;...
Sports-related tendinopathy is commonly treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs including cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor. Tendon healing requires migration of tendon cells to the repair site, followed by proliferation and synthesis collagen. This study was designed determine effects COX-2 inhibitor (celecoxib) on migration, proliferation, types I III collagen expression intrinsic rat Achilles tendon. Using cultured cells, cell were evaluated transwell filter assay MTT...
Context . Previous high-angular-resolution 225 GHz (~1.3 mm) continuum observations of the transitional disk DM Tau have resolved an outer ring at 20–120 au radii that is weakly azimuthally asymmetric. Aims We aim to examine dust growth and filtration in Tau. Methods performed ~0″.06 (~8.7 au) resolution Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (JVLA) 40–48 (~7 mm; Q band) observations, along with complementary lower frequencies. In addition, we analyzed archival JVLA undertaken since 2010. Results...
Non-invasive techniques such as central intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) and repetitive peripheral magnetic (rPMS) have shown promise in improving motor function for patients with stroke. However, the combined efficacy of rPMS iTBS has not been extensively studied. This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate synergistic effects
We have compiled the $\sim$4-400 GHz broad spectra of 32 Class II protoplanetary disks in Taurus-Auriga region, which represents brightest one-third sources detected submillimeter band this region. The at >20 frequency can be described with a piecewise function: (1) power law spectral index $\sim$2 >200 GHz, (2) range 0.3-4.2 20-50 and (3) transition region between these two laws characterized by sigmoid function. This suggests that flux densities <50 are dominated distinct emission...
Parental concern is a useful screening approach for early detection of children with developmental delay. We investigated the relationships among parental concerns, functional impairment, and final diagnosis (n = 273) delays. Of these, motor, language, global delay were most common. especially in language motor development, good predictors or delay, provided reliable information delays these domains. Parents less likely to identify cognitive problems, associated behavioral problems....
For promoting the successful aging of elderly residents Chang Gung Silver Village in Taiwan, five interactive exergames were developed to promote well-being elderly. The included both physical games and cognitive games, implemented using various computer-based technologies Village. trialed by 39 (15 male, 24 female; mean age 79.5 ± 17.5 years) Following trials, participants requested complete a Technology Acceptance Model 2 (TAM2) questionnaire. results showed that perceived playfulness...
To assess the effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on cough capacity and prevention pulmonary complication in patients with acute cervical cord injury.A randomized controlled trial.Twenty-six tetraplegic spinal injury, 13 NMES therapy group control group.NMES was applied to clavicular portion pectoralis major abdominal muscle. Pulmonary function tests were performed before after therapy, at 3 months 6 follow-up. The complications this 6-month follow-up period also...
Children with abusive head trauma tend to have worse outcomes than children accidental trauma. However, current predictors of poor for are still limited. We aim use clinical data identify early outcome at discharge in In the 10-year observational retrospective cohort study, aged between zero and four years or were recruited. Multivariate logistic regression models applied evaluate factors associated prognosis The primary was mortality a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) motor component score less 6...
Total hip replacement (THR) is considered the gold standard of treatment for refractory degenerative disorders. Identifying patients who should receive THR in short term important. Some conservative treatments, such as intra-articular injection administered a few months before THR, may result higher odds arthroplasty infection. Delayed after functional deterioration poorer outcomes and longer waiting times those have been flagged needing THR. Deep learning (DL) medical imaging applications...
This paper introduces a real-time model-based human motion tracking and analysis method for computer interface (HCI). tracks analyzes the from two orthogonal views without using any markers. The parameters are estimated by pattern matching between extracted silhouette model. First, is then body definition (BDPs) can be obtained. Second, animation (BAPs) hierarchical tritree overlapping searching algorithm. To verify performance of our method, we demonstrate different posture sequences use...
