Objective This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of an integrated multi-domain telerehabilitation (TR) system in stroke patients and observe whether there are changes quality life (QoL) levels undergoing TR treatments. Methods Patients were enrolled for a longitudinal multicentric pilot conducted six Italian research hospitals (IRCCS). The primary outcome was system, assessed by calculating treatment adherence collecting data from Technology Acceptance Model System Usability Scale...
Background/Objectives: Oral intake and secretions need to be assessed separately, especially in patients with tracheal tubes, as they are vital for dysphagia treatment may require different management strategies. This study aims validate the Italian version of Munich Swallowing Score (IT-MUCSS) by examining its content construct validity relation fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation swallowing (FEES) oral adults neurogenic dysphagia, well assessing intra- inter-rater reliability. tool is...
Objective Frailty has emerged as prevalent condition in ageing. While frailty been assessed through physical and functional criteria, recent studies have explored the link between cognitive decline frailty, which remains complex warrants further investigation. Our aims were to compare differences at brain level robust frail older people without dementia explore possible associations measures performance with neuropsychological tests. Methods Using data from “CAM-Cam” project that recruited a...
The rehabilitation of motor deficits following stroke relies on both sensorimotor and cognitive abilities, thereby involving large-scale brain networks. However, few studies have investigated the integration between domains, as well its neuroanatomical basis. In this retrospective study, upper limb responsiveness to technology-based was examined in a sample 29 patients (18 with right 11 left damage). Pretreatment attentional abilities were found influence recovery. Training increased...
Objective. In the dysphagic patient, pharyngeal residues (PR) are associated with aspiration and poor quality of life. The assessment PR using validated scales during flexible endoscopic evaluation swallowing (FEES) is crucial for rehabilitation. This study aims to validate test reliability Italian version Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale (IT-YPRSRS). effects training experience in FEES on scale were also determined. Methods. original YPRSRS was translated into according...
After stroke, recovery of upper limb (UL) motor function is enhanced by a high dose rehabilitation and supposed to be supported attentive functions. However, their mutual influence during not well known yet. The aim this retrospective observational cohort study was investigate the association between cognitive functions, UL recovery. Inpatients with first unilateral without time restrictions from onset, undergoing at least 15 h were enrolled. Data on modalities received, together outcomes...
Background: Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder mainly distinguished by sporadic etiology, although genetic component also well established. Variants in the LRRK2 gene are associated with both familiar and disease. We have previously shown that PAK6 14-3-3γ protein interact regulate activity of LRRK2. Objective: The aim this study to quantify plasma as reliable biomarkers for diagnosis LRRK2-linked Methods: After an initial quantification expression means Western...
Specific treatment, enriched with artificially reinforced feedback, may facilitate physiological activation of the brain areas devoted to motor learning.Based on this rationale it was hypothesized that learning could be improved when an environment focused optimizing interaction between human body and physical is used for training.The aims study were examine effect virtual reality therapy balance, gait impairment, determine whether there influence recovery in subacute (< 6 months) or chronic...
After stroke, upper limb motor impairment is one of the most common consequences that compromises level autonomy patients. In a neurorehabilitation setting, implementation wearable sensors provides new possibilities for enhancing hand recovery. our study, we tested an innovative (REMO®) detected residual surface-electromyography forearm muscles to control rehabilitative PC interface. The aim this study was define clinical features stroke survivors able perform ten, five, or no movements...
It remains unknown whether variation of scores on the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale for muscle strength is associated with operator-independent techniques: dynamometry and surface electromyography (sEMG). This study aimed to evaluate MRC are instrumented measures torque activity in post-stroke survivors severe hemiparesis both before after an intervention. Patients affected by a first ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke within 6 months enrollment complete paresis were included study. The...
Recent studies have investigated muscle synergies as biomarkers for stroke, but it remains controversial if and clinical observation convey the same information on motor impairment. We aim to identify whether scales or not. Post-stroke patients were administered an upper limb treatment. Before (T0) after (T1) treatment, we assessed performance with output EMG-derived synergies. implemented exploratory factor analysis (EFA) a confirmatory (CFA) underlying relationships among all variables, at...
Health-related patient reported outcome measures are considered essential to determine the impact of disease on life individuals. Aim this study is culturally adapt Italian version Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI). The secondary aim evaluate psychometric proprieties in patients with non-specific shoulder pain.
Stroke, a leading cause of long-term disability worldwide, manifests as motor, speech language, and cognitive impairments, necessitating customized rehabilitation strategies. In this context, telerehabilitation (TR) strategies have emerged promising solutions. multi-center longitudinal pilot study, we explored the effects multi-domain TR program, comprising physiotherapy, therapy, neuropsychological treatments. total, 84 stroke survivors (74 analyzed) received 20 tailored sessions per...
A single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted to compare whether the continuous visualization of a virtual teacher, during reality rehabilitation, is more effective than same treatment provided without teacher visualization, for recovery arm motor function after stroke. Teacher and no-teacher groups received amount therapy (i.e., 1 h/d, 5 dd/w, 4 ww) an additional hour conventional therapy. In group, specific feedback (“virtual-teacher”) showing correct kinematic be emulated by...
Serological assays have been used to evaluate the magnitude of naturally acquired and BNT162b2 vaccine-induced immunity. In order assess extent which antibody response correlates with infection-mediated protection after vaccination, we investigated kinetics anti-SARS-CoV-2-S1 IgG in fully vaccinated healthy individuals who did or not develop COVID-19 within 8 months booster dose. The receptor-binding, domain-specific titer was assessed serum samples collected at various intervals from 4...
Background Stroke is a debilitating disease affecting millions of people worldwide. Despite the survival rate has significantly increased over years, many stroke survivors are left with severe impairments impacting their quality life. Rehabilitation programs have proved to be successful in improving recovery process. However, reliable model sensorimotor and clear identification predictive markers rehabilitation-induced still needed. This article introduces cross-modality protocols designed...
