Carcinoid tumours are relatively rare and, in general, slow growing. They can be “non-functioning” tumours, presenting as a tumour mass, or “functioning” secondary to the production of several biopeptides leading carcinoid syndrome. Though these represent 0.25% an oncology practice, proper understanding clinical course disease and importance appropriate diagnostic therapeutic measures is very important. Proper patient management lead cure, particularly if fully resected, long-term palliation...
We conducted a prospective randomised trial to compare the results of anatomical reduction and medial displacement osteotomy in 127 consecutive patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures, whom 109 completed study. After an average follow-up 11 months, we found no significant differences walking ability, social status or failure fixation two groups. Postoperative complication rates early mortality rate were not significantly different, but operating time blood loss higher group. With...
Objectives. To quantify the association between performance-based manual wheelchair propulsion tests (20 m test, slalom and 6 min test), trunk upper extremity (U/E) strength, seated reaching capability to establish which ones of these variables best predict performance at tests. Methods. 15 individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI) performed three prior discharge from inpatient SCI rehabilitation. Trunk U/E strength unilateral hand support were also measured. Bivariate correlation multiple...
ContextTrunk control is essential to engage in activities of daily living. Measuring trunk strength and function persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) difficult. Trunk has not been studied non-traumatic SCI (NTSCI).ObjectivesTo characterize changes seated functional reach individuals NTSCI during inpatient rehabilitation. To determine if differ between walkers wheelchair users. explore relationships hip reach.DesignObservational study.SettingTwo rehabilitation facilities.Participants32...
Background: The mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (mini-BESTest) is a valid tool for assessing standing balance in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Its reliability has not yet been investigated this population.Objective: To assess the test-retest and inter-rater of mini-BESTest adults SCI rehabilitation setting.Methods: Twenty-three participants admitted center following an (mean age = 52.2 years, SD 14.5; 13/23 tetraplegia; 14/23 traumatic injury) able to stand 30 seconds without...
