Abstract Background Rehabilitation is crucial for maximizing recovery after stroke. activities that are fun and rewarding by themselves can be more effective than those who not. Gamification with virtual reality (VR) exploits this principle. This single-case design study probes the potential using commercial off-the-shelf, room-scale head-mounted upper extremity rehabilitation in individuals chronic stroke, insights of which inform further research. Methods A heterogeneous volunteer sample...
Purpose The present study explored participants’ experiences with and perceptions of using fully immersive head-mounted virtual reality (VR) gaming as rehabilitation after stroke.Methods Four men three women (median age 64 years) chronic stroke varying motor impairment (mild to severe) were interviewed 10 weeks VR training on the commercial HTC Vive system, focusing upper extremities. Inductive qualitative thematic analysis was performed.Results revealed main themes: playing game, benefits...
Helicobacter suis is the most prevalent non-Helicobacter pylori species in human stomach and associated with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. H. colonizes mucosa of 60-95% pigs at slaughter age, decreased weight gain, ulcers. Here, we show that experimental infection changes mucin composition glycosylation, decreasing amount suis-binding glycan structures pig mucus niche. Similarly, ability mucins from pylori-infected humans...
Helicobacter pylori colonizes the stomach of half human population. Most H. are located in mucus layer, which is mainly comprised by glycosylated mucins. Using mass spectrometry, we identified 631 glycans (whereof 145 were fully characterized and remainder assigned as compositions) on mucins isolated from 14 spp.-infected spp.-noninfected stomachs. Only six common to all individuals, a total 60 189 each individual. An increased number unique glycan structures together with an intraindividual...
Using mailed checklists, levels of satisfaction with life as a whole and eight different domains, participation in non-work activity were investigated 46 subjects multiple sclerosis (MS). The results compared those found 146 individuals from randomly selected population. MS group reported significantly lower (level happiness), self-care ADL, sexual life, family vocational situation leisure than did the reference group, but similar partnership relations, financial contacts friends...
Background: Merely half of the students who enrol in pharmacy programme at University Gothenburg Sweden graduate time. Papers submitted by enrolled reveal linguistic deficiencies. To gain university admission, must achieve passing grades Swedish (SFL) or as a Second Language (SAS). Objective: This study aimed to investigate language proficiency and its correlation academic performance students. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, among was assessed using four approaches: tests (grammar,...
Brachyspira hyodysenteriae is commonly associated with swine dysentery (SD), a disease that has an economic impact on the industry. B. infection results in changes to colonic mucus niche massive induction, which substantially increases number of binding sites mucus. We previously determined strain binds colon mucins manner differs between pigs and mucin types.
