We examined the efficacy of modified constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) and hand-arm bimanual intensive (HABIT) in a special education preschool/kindergarten Israel. Twelve children (1.5–7 years) with congenital hemiplegic cerebral palsy were randomized to receive CIMT (n = 6) or HABIT 6). Occupational physical therapists administered usual customary care for 8 weeks; then crossed over 2 hr/day, 6 days/week weeks from their occupational therapist. The Assisting Hand Assessment...
Purpose. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility implementing constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in Jordan, a country with different culture that western world where CIMT has previously been investigated.Method. Twenty children unilateral cerebral palsy (CP) were randomised either or neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT). NDT is usual method Jordan for CP and used control group. Fourteen fulfilled treatment; mean age 47 months (SD 19 months) group 65 (SD26 Jordanian...
Aims: This article describes a home-based study evaluating the effectiveness of modified constraint induced movement therapy (CIMT) in improving upper limb function stroke survivors, and compares it with clinical-based Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) approach. Methods: In this pretest-post-test randomized study, 10 survivors received CIMT eight conventional NDT rehabilitation. The focus was on hemiplegic hand, by which less affected hand restrained, structured training for more arm hand....

BCR-ABL kinase domain (KD) mutations are well known for causing resistance against tyrosine inhibitors (TKIs) and disease progression in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In recent years, compound have emerged as a new threat to CML patients by higher degrees of involving multiple TKIs, including ponatinib. However, there limited reports about association with imatinib (IM) sensitive patients. Therefore, we investigated presence ABL-KD phase (n = 41), late 33) accelerated 16) responders....
