The Brazilian Practice Guidelines for Stroke Rehabilitation - Part II, developed by the Scientific Department of Neurological Academy Neurology (Academia Brasileira de Neurologia, in Portuguese), focuses on specific rehabilitation techniques to aid recovery from impairment and disability after stroke. As I, II is also based recently available evidence randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, other guidelines. covers disorders communication, dysphagia, postural control...
Aims: The present study aims to analyze the amount of tooth movement and pulp conditions in teeth with dentoalveolar trauma history (extrusive luxation), when three types orthodontic forces are applied. Study Design: Experimental research. Methodology: Wistar rats (n = 48) were divided into 8 groups 6), having as variables different forces: continuous (CF), interrupted (ICF) intermittent (IF), presence or absence (PT AT) not (WM WOM). arranged follows: ATCF, ATICF, ATIF, PTCF, PTICF, PTIF,...
BACKGROUND: Cerebral swelling in relation to cytotoxic edema is a predictor of poor outcome acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and elevated blood pressure (BP) promotes its development. Whether intensive BP-lowering treatment reduces cerebral uncertain. We aimed determine whether BP lowering the severity after thrombolysis for AIS. METHODS: A secondary analysis ENCHANTED (Enhanced Control Hypertension Thrombolysis Stroke Study), partial factorial, international, multicenter, open-label, blinded end...
Introdução: O clareamento dental é um procedimento estético odontológico que visa deixar os dentes mais brancos através da remoção de manchas e tonalidades escurecidas superfície dentária.Tem grande aceitação entre pacientes em razão ser pouco invasivo, ter baixa complexidade entregar resultados satisfatórios, porém apresentam alguns efeitos adversos como a hipersensibilidade dentária modulada conforme o protocolo adotado objetivo: relatar caso clínico consultório realizado com intervalos 7...
To determine the effect of sour flavor and cold temperature on oral transit time during swallowing.Participants were 52 subjects (28 male 24 female) with ages between 50 80 years (median=66 years), after ischemic stroke involving right or left side damage mild to moderate oropharyngeal dysphagia. Videofluoroscopy was performed analyze swallowing times. Each subject assessed a paste consistency bolus offered in 5 ml spoons, total four different stimuli (natural, cold, sour-cold). After exam,...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Oropharyngeal dysphagia is common in individuals after stroke. Taste and temperature are used rehabilitation. The influence of stimuli, such as taste temperature, on swallowing biomechanics has been investigated both healthy with neurological disease. However, some questions still remain unanswered, how the sequence offered stimuli influences pharyngeal response. goal present study was to determine sour cold transit time during deglutition...
PURPOSE: To analyze the epidemiological features of patients with esophageal cancer according to histopathological types: squamous cell carcinoma or adenocarcinoma. METHODS: A total 100 cancer, being 50 carcinomas and adenocarcinomas were analyzed for demographics, nutritional factors, lifestyle habits, benign pathological conditions associated, like Barrett's esophagus megaesophagus, tumor stage survival rates. The factors evaluated included body mass index, percent weight loss, hemoglobin...
Rehabilitation top-down techniques based on brain stimulation present variable outcomes in unilateral spatial neglect (USN) after stroke. This study aimed to examine the effects of physical therapy anodal and cathodal transcranial direct current (A-tDCS C-tDCS, respectively) improve visuospatial functional impairments individuals with USN stroke.This double-blinded, pilot randomized clinical trial enrolled patients ischemic Randomization was stratified according Behavior Inattention...
OBJETIVO: traduzir e adaptar protocolo desenvolvido por pesquisadores alemães, adequando-o às características fonéticas linguísticas do português falado no Brasil. Caracterizar os componentes de fala mais alterados na população com doença Parkinson, comparando-os grupo sujeitos normais mesma faixa etária. MÉTODOS: realizou-se a tradução adaptação protocolo. Posteriormente foram avaliados 21 pacientes diagnóstico neurológico Doença Parkinson nos estágios Hoehn &Yarh, entre 2 3, 10...
There is a high demand for stroke rehabilitation in the Brazilian public health system, but most studies that have addressed unilateral spatial neglect (USN) after been performed high-income countries. Therefore, aim of this study was to analyze USN patient recruitment multicenter noninvasive brain stimulation clinical trial Brazil and provide design recommendations future studies. We evaluated reasons exclusion patients from multicenter, randomized, double-blinded stroke. Clinical...
PURPOSE: This study aimed at showing association between the posterior oral spillage and pharyngeal residue with tracheal aspiration and/or laryngeal penetration in stroke. METHODS: Clinical cross-sectional retrospective multicenter study. The included 63 videofluoroscopic tests of post-ischemic stroke individuals oropharyngeal dysphagia data three reference centers providing care for patients (43 men 20 women; age range: from 40 to 90 years). These were divided into two groups. Group I...
Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is characterized by the inability to report or respond people objects that are presented in hemisphere contralateral lesioned of brain. USN has been associated with poor functional outcomes and long stays hospitals rehabilitation centers. Noninvasive brain stimulation, such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), used who have affected after stroke. The effects treatment could provide new insights for health professionals policy-makers. aim this...
OBJETIVO: Analisar a concordância entre distintas escalas para grau de comprometimento em disfagia orofaríngea neurogênica. MÉTODOS: Foi realizado estudo clínico transversal. Participaram 200 indivíduos com neurogênica, 108 do gênero masculino e 92 feminino, idades 3 meses 91 anos. Foram aplicadas quatro classificar o da orofaríngea, sendo duas clínicas videofluoroscópicas. Análises estatísticas foram realizadas verificar as objetivas. RESULTADOS: Os resultados mostraram muito boa estudadas...
[Purpose] The study aimed to characterize patients treated by rehabilitation section after establishment of an acute stroke unit. [Subjects and Methods] Medical consultation records individuals with ischemic were studied retrospectively, excluding hemorrhagic stroke, thrombolysis, previous Modified Rankin Scale ≥ 1, prior structural bone deformities, associated neurological disease, cognitive deficit. data evaluated age, gender, etiology, localization, treatment received, ictus onset,...
BACKGROUND: Dysphagia can be a stroke sequelae and may impact patient prognosis. Thrombolytic therapy has been used as treatment of choice which aims to reduce sequelae. OBJECTIVE: Assess the ability dietary intake orally in subjects undergoing
Introduction . Stroke can lead to musculoskeletal and respiratory dysfunction, chronic deconditioning, functional limitations, as well long-term complications. Objective The aim of this study was evaluate the association between function grip strength in acute phase stroke severity, disability, autonomy long term. Methods This a cohort including 46 patients unit. were assessed unit at following moments: admission by clinical haemodynamic stability, demographic anthropometric data, hand...

Aphasia is a common and debilitating manifestation of stroke. Transcranial electrical stimulation uses low-intensity electric currents to induce changes in neuronal activity. Recent evidence suggests that noninvasive techniques can be valuable rehabilitation tool for patients with aphasia. However, it difficult recruit aphasia trials, the reasons this are not well understood. This study aimed elucidate main difficulties involved patient's recruitment inclusion randomized clinical...
