Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is the clinical precursor of Alzheimer's disease (AD), which considered most common neurodegenerative in elderly. Some MCI patients tend to remain stable over time and do not evolve AD. It essential diagnose its early stages provide timely treatment patient. In this study, we propose a neuroimaging approach identify using deep learning method functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). For purpose, fifteen subjects nine healthy controls (HCs) were asked...
Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is essential in preventing its progression to dementia. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) can be indicative early-stage AD. In this study, we propose a channel-wise feature extraction method functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) data diagnose MCI when performing tasks, including two-back, Stroop, and semantic verbal fluency tasks (SVFT).A new proposed as follows: A region-of-interest (ROI) channel defined such having statistical difference (p...
To evaluate the effectiveness of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) and combined mirror for inpatient rehabilitation patients with subacute stroke.Twenty-six stroke were enrolled randomly divided into three groups: CIMT group, only control group. Two weeks 6 hours a day or without 30 minutes performed under supervision. All groups received conventional occupational 40 same period. The group also additional self-exercise to substitute therapy. box block test, 9-hole Pegboard grip...
The present pilot study was aimed at conducting a comparative analysis of the level activation in prefrontal cortex among normal elderly group and amnestic nonamnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) groups investigating presence neural compensatory mechanisms according to types MCI different tasks. We performed functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) along with tasks, including two-back test, Korean color word Stroop semantic verbal fluency task (SVFT), investigate hemodynamic...
With the rapid progression of population aging worldwide, health management older adults is emerging as an important topic. To help prevent declines in physical and cognitive function due to aging, must maintain consistent activity. The development digital technology has recently allowed optimization exercise programs for using augmented reality (AR) game technology.Fifteen adult females were enrolled AR-based program. program was conducted 30 minutes, three times weekly, a total 6 weeks....
Objectives The purpose of this study was to analyze and determine whether elderly people's fall efficacy, balance, gait would change positively by participating in park golf exercise for 8 weeks. Methods subjects were 20 people aged 65 or older who had no health problems, experience falling, regular golf, selected the experiment. For data, SPSS Statistics 26 used conduct an independent t-test, reliability analysis, two-way repeated measures ANOVA with measurement time as a factor. At time,...
Background For effective rehabilitation after stroke, it is essential to conduct an objective assessment of the patient’s functional status. Several stroke severity scales have been used for this purpose, but such various limitations. Objective Gait analysis using smart insole technology can be applied continuously, objectively, and quantitatively, thereby overcoming shortcomings other tools. Methods To confirm reliability gait technology, normal healthy controls wore insoles in their shoes...
Accurate volume measurement is important in the management of patients with congestive heart failure or renal insufficiency. A bioimpedance analyser can estimate total body water litres and has been widely used clinical practice due to its non-invasiveness ease results interpretation. To change impedance data volumetric data, analysers use equations derived from healthy subjects, which may not apply other conditions. Bioelectrical vector analysis (BIVA) was developed overcome dependence on...
To investigate the efficacy of systemic pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) after lung resection in patients with cancer.Forty-one undergoing were enrolled and classified into experimental (n=31) control groups (n=10). The group underwent post-operative PR which was conducted 30 min/day on every hospitalization day by an expert physical therapist. received same education about exercises encouraged to self-exercise without supervision taught a self-PR program feedback provided regularly until 6...
Background Patients undergoing orthognathic surgery are at high risk of developing emergence agitation. We hypothesised that a single-dose dexmedetomidine would reduce agitation in adults with nasotracheal intubation after surgery. Methods Seventy (20–45 years old) were randomly assigned to two groups. received intravenous 1 μg/kg (dex group) or normal saline (control for 10 min the end Remifentanil was infused 0.02 μg/kg/min during both The severity assessed Richmond agitation–sedation...
We explored whether a mechanically-assisted squat exercise improved muscle mass, function, and pulmonary function in elderly women with or without sarcopenia. In total, 76 community-dwelling subjects (>60 years of age) were screened. ultimately included 30 who completed more than 80% the six-week course exercises (three days per week, min day). measured body composition, lung knee extensor strength, hand grip 3-min walk distance (3MWD) before after program. Subjects sarcopenia had poor...
