Abstract The phenotypic similarities have been demonstrated between non‐lethal campomelic dysplasia (CD) and small patella syndrome (SPS), in which different genetic defects identified. We report on a familial case of skeletal with overlapping phenotype mild CD SPS, including defective ischio‐pubic ossification, elongated femoral neck, hypoplastic patellae, increased space the first second toes (sandal gap). Direct sequencing analysis novel missense mutation (p.H169Q) within coding region...
We investigated the factors influencing inpatient convalescent rehabilitation outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke, particularly severity of leukoaraiosis on magnetic resonance imaging.Participants included 520 stroke (317 men and 203 women; mean age, 72.8±8.4 years) who were transferred from acute care hospitals for rehabilitation. Ischemic subtypes lacunar infarction (n=41), atherothrombosis (n=223), artery-to-artery embolism (n=67), cardiogenic (n=97), undetermined (n=76),...
Achondroplasia (ACH) and hypochondroplasia (HCH) are the most common form of short-limb skeletal dysplasias caused by activated fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) signaling. Although decreased bone mass was reported in gain-of-function mutation Fgfr3 mice, both disorders have never been described as osteoporotic. In present study, we evaluated mineral density (BMD) ACH HCH patients.We measured spinal BMD (L1-L4) 18 four patients with an average age 19.8 ± 7.5 years (range, 10-33...
Patients who undergo total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or hip (THA) often develop postoperative pain. Exercise approaches are recommended postoperatively; however, the impact of excessive variation in physical activity is unclear. The purpose present preliminary study was to investigate using accelerometer early period after TKA THA.Seventy-two patients were enrolled study. Forty underwent initial TKA, and 32 THA. Physical measured for 8 days from day 3 10. with substantial correlation between...
Patients with lower limbs osteoarthritis (OA) had slower walking speeds than healthy. Gait speed, which is associated leg muscle strength, a consistent predictor of health and functional status. The effects pain pain-related psychological constructs for gait have been uncertain. Therefore, we investigated whether speed in patients OA using performance-based measure.The study group comprised 59 advanced knee or hip OA. were measured at comfortable maximum levels during 10-m walks. Covariates...
Currently, there are no effective medical treatment options to prevent the formation of heterotopic bones in fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). By drug repositioning strategy, we confirmed that perhexiline maleate (Pex) potentially ameliorates ossification model cells and mice. Here, conducted a prospective study assess efficacy safety Pex FOP patients. patients this open-label single-center were treated with for total 12 months, followed up consecutive months after medication...
To investigate whether reductions in pain catastrophizing associated with physical performance the early period after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or hip (THA).The study group of 46 participants underwent TKA THA. The were evaluated within 7 d before operation and at 14 afterwards. Physical was measured by Timed Up Go (TUG) test, 10-m gait time comfortable maximum speeds. They rated their using a visual analog scale (VAS) for daily life activities. Psychological characteristics Pain...
Salter innominate osteotomy is an effective reconstructive procedure for the treatment of developmental dysplasia hip (DDH), but some children have a poor outcome at skeletal maturity. In order to investigate factors associated with unfavourable outcome, we assessed development contralateral hip. We retrospectively reviewed 46 patients who underwent unilateral between five and seven years age, mean follow-up 10.3 (7 20). The were divided into three groups according centre-edge angle (CEA)...
Objective: Delayed post-operative ambulation is a risk of complications and increases overall healthcare costs. We investigated pre-operative intraoperative variables associated with delayed in patients who underwent thymectomy.Methods: A total 57 consecutive undergoing thymectomy were included this study. Pre-operative functional exercise capacity was evaluated by six-minute walk distance. Ambulation considered to be if the patient could not ward on day 1. Binary logistic regression...
Increase in the magnitude of lengthening during limb procedure involves a high risk decreased range motion (ROM) adjacent joints. Even though patients with achondroplasia can tolerate relatively larger amount owing to its inherent soft-tissue laxity, they often exhibit significant joint contractures extensive lengthening. In present study, we evaluated temporal changes ROM hip, knee, and ankle joints throughout treatment period 12 limbs six who had undergone tibial The hip extension, knee...
Cilostazol is a phosphodiesterase III-inhibiting antiplatelet agent that often used to prevent stroke and peripheral artery disease, its administration has shown significant improvements for cognitive impairment. We investigate the potential of cilostazol reducing or restoring decline during convalescent rehabilitation in patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke. The study sample included 371 consecutive lacunar (n = 44) atherothrombosis 327) subtypes (224 men 147 women; mean age,...
Epidural analgesia is used to promote rehabilitation in patients with refractory complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) who cannot bear physical programs due intense pain. However, the actual process has not been focused previous reports. Here, we outline our experience of treating a young woman CRPS type 1 underwent facilitated by continuous lumbar epidural block. A 15-year-old girl developed throbbing from her left toe ankle, no obvious cause. She was admitted hospital 2 months after...
Leg-length discrepancy greater than 2 to 2.5 cm can potentially have an adverse effect on our walking and standing mechanisms requires proper correction involving surgical treatment. However, for minor leg-length in childhood, decision making the indications timing of epiphysiodesis is difficult because unpredictable final discrepancy. The purpose this study was analyze longitudinal changes congenital disorders determine earlier predictive values clinically significant Twenty-one patients...
We compared the relationship between foot alignments and quality of life in patients who underwent initial total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Among with osteoarthritis (KOA) TKA from May 2015 to 2017 at our hospital, we focused on those whom weight-bearing radiographs had been evaluated preoperatively. The hallux valgus angle Meary were measured by preoperative radiography, angles 20 degrees or more classified into (HV) group, 4 high arch (HA) group. Also ankle range motion, pain Visual Analog...
Postoperative pulmonary complications are a risk associated with thoracic surgery. However, there have been few reports on cases at high of postoperative complications. Cancer patients often negative automatic thoughts about illness, and these reduced health behavior physical activity. This case series demonstrates the successful combination treatment perioperative rehabilitation psychoeducation for in two cancer who underwent One patient pneumonectomy laryngeal recurrent nerve paralysis;...
An adolescent obese boy showed late-onset unilateral tibia vara associated with physeal separation (slipped epiphysis) of the lateral proximal and widening distal femur. These affected physes normal signal intensities by MRI. He was treated hemiepiphysiodesis left femur using two parallel eight-Plates, varus deformity rapidly improved postoperatively without recurrence. This is first case caused tibia. Normal growth medial around knee would contribute toward significant correction after surgery.
小児の下肢障害の原因となる疾患は多岐にわたり,その症状も疼痛,可動域制限,関節痛,跛行などさまざまである.股関節には注意すべき疾患が多く,膝関節や足関節ではスポーツによる障害が中心となり,成長期特有の骨端線の障害やアライメントの障害,先天性の疾患や神経筋疾患なども含まれる.それぞれの疾患の好発年齢や症状の特徴を理解することで,適切な診断と治療を行うことが可能となる.近年の小児の運動器障害は,スポーツ活動によるオーバーユースと運動不足による運動器機能不全の二極化が特徴といわれ,運動器検診の重要性が高まっている.
Introduction:Respiratory failures are categorized into types I and II. To our knowledge, we report the first case of pulmonary rehabilitation in a patient with systemic sclerosis/polymyositis overlap syndrome who developed type II respiratory failure.
