After obtaining informed consent, we randomized 78 patients with severe hemiparesis of the left or right side within 10 days stroke onset: 40 to a control group receiving daily physiotherapy and occupational therapy, 38 that, in addition, treated sensory stimulation (acupuncture) twice week for weeks. The median age was 76 years both groups. Motor function, balance, ADL (Barthel9s Index) were assessed before start treatment at 1 3 months after onset; also 12 months. We quality life (QL)...
In a randomized study of hemiparetic stroke patients with median age 75 years, functional recovery was significantly better in those who received additional sensory stimulation (n = 38), including electrostimulation, than control 40) given the same physiotherapy and occupational therapy; group differences for balance, mobility, activities daily living were significant. The present designed to investigate postural survived more 2 years after onset. 48 survivors (mean, 2.7 years; range, 2.0...
Introduction. Arm lymphoedema is a frequent complication after breast cancer treatment. Early diagnosis and treatment considered important for successful management of related arm (BCRL). The purpose was to identify BCRL incidence, time onset, progression/regression associated factors 10 years diagnosis. Material methods. Two hundred ninety two patients treated with axillary node dissection radiotherapy were included in this retrospective study. A total 111 diagnosed (incidence 38.7%). Of...
Early diagnosis of breast cancer treatment-related lymphedema (BCRL) is great importance for longstanding treatment results. Tissue dielectric constant (TDC) and bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) both have a potential early diagnosis, but not been compared.One hundred women, treated with surgery, axillary dissection, radiotherapy, were examined within one year after treatment, as part the follow-up procedure. Affected/at-risk contralateral arms measured TDC technique specific to localized skin...
This report evaluates whether health related quality of life (HRQoL) and patient-reported arm morbidity one year after axillary surgery are affected by the omission lymph node dissection (ALND).The ongoing international non-inferiority SENOMAC trial randomizes clinically node-negative breast cancer patients (T1-T3) with 1-2 sentinel (SLN) macrometastases to completion ALND or no further surgery. For this analysis, first 1181 enrolled in Sweden Denmark between March 2015, June 2019, were...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and effect a water-based exercise program on lymphedema status shoulder range motion among women with breast cancer-related lymphedema.This single-blinded, randomized controlled pilot trial. Twenty-nine eligible cancer survivors (median, 10 yrs after surgery) arm 21% interlimb difference) were included into intervention (n = 15) or control 14) group. Twenty-five participants completed study. at least twice-weekly for 8 wks, initially...
Analysis of sequencing data for 143 blaNDM-1- and blaOXA-48-positive Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from 13 European national collections the public domain resulted in identification 15 previously undetected multi-country transmission clusters. For 10 clusters, cases had prior travel/hospitalisation history countries outside Union including Egypt, Iran, Morocco, Russia, Serbia, Tunisia Turkey. These findings highlight benefit whole genome sequencing-based surveillance sharing control...

The aim of this study was to explore employed women's experiences light or moderate arm lymphoedema following breast cancer treatment in order gain a deeper understanding phenomenon. Twelve women took part semistructured interview. A qualitative method with phenomenological approach applied analyse data. In integrate the everyday life women, critical incident used. findings indicate that there are many different practical and psychosocial problems related lymphoedema. Three main themes were...
ABSTRACT The need for an understanding of ‘ageing in place’ as a progressive process has emerged among researchers the field environmental gerontology. aim this study was to explore process, relation home modification services. Four older adults who had applied services one Swedish municipality were included. Data collected by open interviews with participants their homes on subsequent occasions, from before been installed until recognised stability situation relating modification. In...
Early diagnosis and compression treatment are important to prevent progression in breast cancer-related arm lymphedema (BCRAL). However, some mild BCRAL can be reversible, therefore, may not needed. The aim of this study was investigate the proportion women with showing progression/no after or without garments, differences changes relative volume (LRV), local tissue water subjective symptoms during 6 months. Also, adherence self-care examined.Seventy-five diagnosed were randomized a group...
Arm lymphoedema and impaired shoulder mobility muscle strength are well known side-effects to breast cancer treatment. The aim of this prospective study was follow closely describe the arm volume, range motion hand after treatment in order form a basis for further studies area including physiotherapy intervention. Sixty-one women treated with axillary dissection, or without postoperative radiotherapy, were examined preoperatively monthly until 6 months operation 1- 2-year follow-ups. 1 month...
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for cardiovascular cell therapy are procured from different sources including bone marrow and adipose tissue. Differently located MSCs differ in growth potential, differentiation ability gene expression when cultured vitro, studies show healing abilities MSC subgroups. In this study, derived (BMSCs) tissue (ADSCs) six human donors with coronary artery disease were compared potential of target genes (Angpt1, LIF, HGF, TGF-β1 VEGF-A) response to exposure 1% 5% O2,...
