A Systematic Reviewarticle Of Turning Difficulties In Individuals With Stroke, Pei-Yi Chou, Shu-Chun Lee
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Introduction: Making turn is a challenging task that is reported as one of the activities that most frequently leads to fall in stroke patients. Among community-dwelling older adults, hip fractures are eight times more likely to result from falls while making turns than from falls while walking straight. The stroke patients have asymmetric posture and movements due to hemiparesis, thus their turning performance may varied depending on the direction of the turn. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic reviewarticle was to summarize the characteristics of turning after stroke and discuss the possible neuromuscular mechanisms of turning difficulties. Methods: Searches of …

Effect Of Aerobic Dance Training In Adults With Prader-Willi Syndrome: A Pilot Study, Fei-Chuan Chen, Shih-Yun Hon, Li-Ping Tsai
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Objective: Aerobic Dance Training has beneficial effects in improving physical fitness. However, there were few studies validating the physical fitness effectiveness of Aerobic Dance Training in Prader-Willi Syndrome patients (PWS). This study aims to investigate the effects of Aerobic Dance Training in PWS adults, by using integrated clinical measurements of physical fitness. Methods: This is a matched controlled study design. Twelve Prader-Willi Syndrome patients received either Aerobic Dance Training or conventional physiotherapy for 8 weeks (2 times per week for 2 hours each session). Clinical measurements of physical fitness were analyzed before and after the intervention and were followed at …

The study was designed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) on the rehabilitation of patients with piriformis syndrome. Thirty-six patients diagnosed with unilateral piriformis syndrome were included and allocated randomly into three groups, Groups A-C, with twelve patients in each group. Patients in Groups A-C all received conventional physical modalities programs, including hot packs and interferential current therapy, three times weekly for six weeks. Patients in Group B received an extra twenty minutes of stretching exercise therapy after physical modalities therapy, and Group C received the same therapy as in Group B and extra shockwave therapy …
