Objective
To verify the effects of structured home-based exercises without supervision by a physical therapist in patients with early-stage amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).Design
A historical controlled study that is part of a multicenter collaborative study.Setting
Rehabilitation departments at general hospitals and outpatient clinics with a neurology department.Participants
Patients (N=21) with ALS were enrolled and designated as the home-based exercise (Home-EX) group, and they performed unsupervised home-based exercises. As a control group, 84 patients with ALS who underwent supervised exercise with a physical therapist for 6 months were extracted from a database of patients with ALS and matched with the Home-EX group in terms of their basic attributes and clinical features.Intervention
The Home-EX group was instructed to perform structured home-based exercises without supervision by a physical therapist that consisted of muscle stretching, muscle training, and functional training for 6 months.Main Outcome Measures
The primary outcome was the score on the ALS Functional Rating Scale–Revised (ALSFRS-R), which is composed of 3 domains: bulbar function, limb function, and respiratory function. The score ranges from 0 to 48 points, with a higher score indicating better function.Results
In the Home-EX group, 15 patients completed the home-based exercises for 6 months, and 6 patients dropped out because of medical reasons or disease progression. No adverse events were reported. The Home-EX group was found to have a significantly higher respiratory function subscore and total score on the ALSFRS-R than the control group at follow-up (P<.001 and P<.05, respectively).Conclusions
Structured home-based exercises without supervision by a physical therapist could be used to alleviate functional deterioration in patients with early-stage ALS. 相似文献2.

Objective
To compare virtual reality (VR) combined with functional electrical stimulation (FES) with cyclic FES for improving upper extremity function and health-related quality of life in patients with chronic stroke.Design
A pilot, randomized, single-blind, controlled trial.Setting
Stroke rehabilitation inpatient unit.Participants
Participants (N=48) with hemiplegia secondary to a unilateral stroke for >3 months and with a hemiplegic wrist extensor Medical Research Council scale score ranging from 1 to 3.Interventions
FES was applied to the wrist extensors and finger extensors. A VR-based wearable rehabilitation device was used combined with FES and virtual activity–based training for the intervention group. The control group received cyclic FES only. Both groups completed 20 sessions over a 4-week period.Main Outcome Measures
Primary outcome measures were changes in Fugl-Meyer Assessment–Upper Extremity and Wolf Motor Function Test scores. Secondary outcome measures were changes in Box and Block Test, Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test, and Stroke Impact Scale scores. Assessments were performed at baseline (t0) and at 2 weeks (t1), 4 weeks (t4), and 8 weeks (t8). Between-group comparisons were evaluated using a repeated-measures analysis of variance.Results
Forty-one participants were included in the analysis. Compared with FES alone, VR-FES produced a substantial increase in Fugl-Meyer Assessment–distal score (P=.011) and marginal improvement in Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test–gross score (P=.057). VR-FES produced greater, although nonsignificant, improvements in all other outcome measures, except in the Stroke Impact Scale–activities of daily living/instrumental activities of daily living score.Conclusions
FES with VR-based rehabilitation may be more effective than cyclic FES in improving distal upper extremity gross motor performance poststroke. 相似文献3.

Background
Preoperative progressive resistance training (PRT) is controversial in patients scheduled for total knee arthroplasty (TKA), because of the concern that it may exacerbate knee joint pain and effusion.Objective
To examine whether preoperative PRT initiated 5 weeks prior to TKA would exacerbate pain and knee effusion, and would allow a progressively increased training load throughout the training period that would subsequently increase muscle strength.Design
Secondary analyses from a randomized controlled trial (NCT01647243).Setting
University Hospital and a Regional Hospital.Patients
A total of 30 patients who were scheduled for TKA due to osteoarthritis and assigned as the intervention group.Methods
Patients underwent unilateral PRT (3 sessions per week). Exercise loading was 12 repetitions maximum (RM) with progression toward 8 RM. The training program consisted of 6 exercises performed unilaterally.Main outcome measures
Before and after each training session, knee joint pain was rated on an 11-point scale, effusion was assessed by measuring the knee joint circumference, and training load was recorded. The first and last training sessions were initiated by 1 RM testing of unilateral leg press, unilateral knee extension, and unilateral knee flexion.Results
The median pain change score from before to after each training session was 0 at all training sessions. The average increase in knee joint effusion across the 12 training sessions was a mean 0.16 cm ± 0.23 cm. No consistent increase in knee joint effusion after training sessions during the training period was found (P = .21). Training load generally increased, and maximal muscle strength improved as follows: unilateral leg press: 18% ± 30% (P = .03); unilateral knee extension: 81% ± 156% (P < .001); and unilateral knee flexion: 53% ± 57% (P < .001).Conclusion
PRT of the affected leg initiated shortly before TKA does not exacerbate knee joint pain and effusion, despite a substantial progression in loading and increased muscle strength. Concerns for side effects such as pain and effusion after PRT seem unfounded.Level of Evidence

Objective
To determine the association between quadriceps rate of force development (RFD) and decline in self-reported physical function and objective measures of physical performance.Design
Longitudinal cohort study.Setting
Community-based sample from 4 urban areas.Participants
Osteoarthritis Initiative participants with or at risk for knee osteoarthritis, who had no history of knee/hip replacement, knee injury, or rheumatoid arthritis (N=2630).Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Quadriceps RFD (N/s) was measured during isometric strength testing. Worsening physical function was defined as the minimal clinically important difference for worsening self-reported Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) physical function subscale score, 20-m walk time, and repeated chair stand time over 36 months.Results
Compared with the slowest tertile of RFD, the fastest tertile had a lower risk for worsening of WOMAC physical function subscale score at 36-month follow-up, with an odds ratio (OR) of .68 (95% confidence interval [CI], .51–.92) after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, depression, history of chronic diseases, and knee pain. In women, in comparison with the slowest tertile of RFD, the fastest tertile had a lower risk for worsening of WOMAC physical function subscale score at 36-month follow-up, with an adjusted OR of .57 (95% CI, .38–.86). This decreased risk did not reach statistical significance in men (OR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.52–1.27). No statistically significant associations were detected between baseline RFD and walk or chair stand times.Conclusions
Our results indicate that higher RFD is associated with decreased risk for worsening self-reported physical function but not with decreased risk for worsening of physical performance. 相似文献5.

Background
Wheelchair-dependent patients rely on their upper extremities for mobility and transfers. This entails the heavy use of upper extremities as weight-bearing joints, leading to shoulder overuse with increased prevalence of rotator cuff–related disorders and ultimately to challenging cases for shoulder surgeons when a joint replacement is needed.Objective
To report the outcomes of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) in wheelchair-dependent patients with arthritis and rotator cuff tears.Design
Retrospective case series/cross-sectional study.Setting
Tertiary university hospital.Patient (participants)
All wheelchair-dependent patients undergoing RSA between 2004 and 2013.Methods/Interventions
Of the 22 wheelchair-dependent patients undergoing RSA, 18 of them had a minimum follow-up of 2 years. There were 9 men and 9 women, with a mean (standard deviation) age and length of follow-up of 68 (8.5) years and 36 (24-63) months. A retrospective chart review and cross-sectional phone calls were conducted to obtain all data.Outcomes
Pain, range of motion, functional scores (Neer scale, simple shoulder test, and American Shoulder and Elbow Society), satisfaction, complications/reoperations, radiographic loosening, and 90-day mortality/morbidity.Results
RSA resulted in a significant improvement in pain (P = .02) and nonsignificant improvements in forward flexion (P = .3) and external rotation (P = .07). There were 3 (16%) excellent, 12 (63%) satisfactory, and 4 (21%) unsatisfactory results. The mean (standard deviation) postoperative American Shoulder and Elbow Society score was 56.5 (16.5). All patients stated that they would undergo RSA again. There were no surgically related complications or reoperations. The 90-day mortality and morbidity rates were 0% and 26%, respectively.Conclusions
RSA is a safe and effective procedure in wheelchair-dependent patients who use their shoulders for weight-bearing purposes. Although functional scores are not optimal and medical complications are not uncommon, 79% of patients had an excellent or satisfactory result.Level of Evidence

Objectives
To evaluate the prognostic utility of serial assessment on the Coma Recovery Scale–Revised (CRS-R) during the first 4 weeks of intensive rehabilitation in patients surviving a severe brain injury.Design
Prospective cohort study.Setting
An intensive rehabilitation unit.Participants
Patients (N=110) consecutively admitted to the intensive rehabilitation unit. Inclusion criteria were (1) a diagnosis of unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS) or minimally conscious state (MCS) caused by an acquired brain injury, and (2) aged >18 years.Interventions
All patients underwent clinical evaluations using the Italian version of the CRS-R during the first month of hospital stay.Main Outcome Measures
Behavioral classification on the CRS-R and the score on the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at final discharge. Patients transitioning from UWS to MCS or emergence from MCS (E-MCS), and from MCS to E-MCS were classified as patients with improved responsiveness (IR).Results
After a mean ± SD hospital stay of 5.3±2.7 months, 59 of 110 patients (53.6%) achieved IR. In the multivariable analysis, a higher CRS-R score change at week 4 (odds ratio =1.99; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.49–2.66; P<.001) was the only significant predictor of IR at discharge. Fifty-three patients (48.2%) were classified as severely impaired at discharge (GOS=3). In the multivariable analysis, higher GOS scores were related to a higher CRS-R score at admission (B=.051; 95% CI, .027–.074; P<.001), a higher CRS-R score change at week 4 (B=.087; 95% CI, .064–.110; P<.001), and an absence of severe infections (B=–.477; 95% CI, –.778 to –.176; P=.002).Conclusions
An improvement on the total CRS-R score and on different subscales across the first 4 weeks of inpatient rehabilitation discriminates patients who will have a better outcome at discharge, providing information for rehabilitation planning and for communication with patients and their caregivers. 相似文献7.

Objectives
To compare the effects of conventional core stabilization and dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) on anticipatory postural adjustment (APA) time, balance performance, and fear of falls in chronic hemiparetic stroke.Design
Two-group randomized controlled trial with pretest-posttest design.Setting
Hospital rehabilitation center.Participants
Adults with chronic hemiparetic stroke (N=28).Interventions
Participants were randomly divided into either conventional core stabilization (n=14) or DNS (n=14) groups. Both groups received a total of 20 sessions of conventional core stabilization or DNS training for 30 minutes per session 5 times a week during the 4-week period.Main Outcome Measures
Electromyography was used to measure the APA time for bilateral external oblique (EO), transverse abdominis (TrA)/internal oblique (IO), and erector spinae (ES) activation during rapid shoulder flexion. Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and Falls Efficacy Scale (FES) were used to measure trunk movement control, balance performance, and fear of falling.Results
Baseline APA times were delayed and fear of falling was moderately high in both the conventional core stabilization and DNS groups. After the interventions, the APA times for EO, TrA/IO, and ES were shorter in the DNS group than in the conventional core stabilization group (P<.008). The BBS and TIS scores (P<.008) and the FES score (P<.003) were improved compared with baseline in both groups, but FES remained stable through the 2-year follow-up period only in the DNS group (P<.003).Conclusions
This is the first clinical evidence highlighting the importance of core stabilization exercises for improving APA control, balance, and fear of falls in individuals with hemiparetic stroke. 相似文献8.

Objectives
To evaluate the extent of variability in functional responses in participants in the Lifestyle Interventions and Independence for Elders (LIFE) study and to identify the relative contributions of intervention adherence, physical activity, and demographic and health characteristics to this variability.Design
Secondary analysis.Setting
Multicenter institutions.Participants
A volunteer sample (N=1635) of sedentary men and women aged 70 to 89 years who were able to walk 400m but had physical limitations, defined as a Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) score of ≤9.Interventions
Moderate-intensity physical activity (n=818) consisting of aerobic, resistance, and flexibility exercises performed both center-based (2times/wk) and home-based (3–4times/wk) sessions or health education program (n=817) consisting of weekly to monthly workshops covering relevant health information.Main Outcome Measures
Physical function (gait speed over 400m) and lower extremity function (SPPB score) assessed at baseline and 6, 12, and 24 months.Results
Greater baseline physical function (gait speed, SPPB score) was negatively associated with change in gait speed (regression coefficient β=?.185; P<.001) and change in SPPB score (β=?.365; P<.001), whereas higher number of steps per day measured by accelerometry was positively associated with change in gait speed (β=.035; P<.001) and change in SPPB score (β=.525; P<.001). Other baseline factors associated with positive change in gait speed and/or SPPB score include younger age (P<.001), lower body mass index (P<.001), and higher self-reported physical activity (P=.002).Conclusions
Several demographic and physical activity–related factors were associated with the extent of change in functional outcomes in participants in the LIFE study. These factors should be considered when designing interventions for improving physical function in older adults with limited mobility. 相似文献9.
Background
As our population ages, neurogenic claudication (NC) from central canal stenosis of the lumbar spine is becoming an increasingly common condition. Studies have been undertaken to assess the efficacy of caudal, interlaminar, or unilateral transforaminal epidural injections, but bilateral transforaminal epidural injections (BTESIs) have not been evaluated to date.Objective
To assess the therapeutic value and long-term effects of fluoroscope-guided BTESIs in patients with NC from degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) of the central spinal canal.Design
Case series.Setting
Single institution spine clinic.Patients
Twenty-six adults between the ages of 40 and 90 years with a diagnosis of DLSS and a history of subacute or chronic NC.Methods/Interventions
Patients meeting inclusion criteria received fluoroscope-guided BTESI of local anesthetic and steroid at the level immediately below the most stenotic level. Patient self-reported pain level, activity level, and overall satisfaction were recorded by telephone interview at 1, 3, and 6 months after injection by an independent observer.Main Outcome Measures
Pain score and Swiss Spinal Stenosis score at baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months.Results
Of the 22 participants eligible for analysis, 20, 19, and 18 had follow-up data available at 1, 3, and 6 months, respectively. Reduction in numeric pain scale score of at least 50% was noted in 30% of participants at 1 month, 53% at 3 months, and 44% at 6 months. Swiss Spinal Stenosis subscale scores indicated a significant reduction in the proportion of participants reporting the presence of severe pain in the back, buttocks, and legs (particularly the back or buttocks) at 1, 3, and 6 months of follow-up compared with baseline (P < .05). The proportion of participants reporting severe weakness in the legs or feet also decreased after injection and was statistically significant at 3 months of follow-up (P = .04).Conclusions
Fluoroscope-guided BTESI was moderately effective in reducing pain, improving function, and achieving patient satisfaction in patients with NC from DLSS at the central spinal canal in this clinical case series.Level of Evidence

Objectives
To (1) compare the opioid utilization patterns in opioid users with spinal cord injury (SCI) to a propensity score–matched general population of opioid users without SCI; and (2) identify characteristics of persons with SCI associated with long-term and/or high-dose use of opioids.Design
Quasi-experimental analysis of archival data.Setting
Data used for the analysis were derived from Thompson Reuters MarketScan Commercial Claims and Encounters Databases for the years 2012 to 2013.Participants
Participants (N=2908; aged 18–64y) included opioid users with SCI (n=1454) and propensity score–matched opioid users without SCI (n=1454). The cohorts were matched using demographics including comorbidities, hospital admissions, age, sex, and geographic region.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Medical and pharmacy claims from 2012 to 2013 MarketScan data were analyzed to characterize whether persons were short-term (<90d) or long-term (≥90d) opioid users, and whether persons had high (≥120mg) or low (<120mg) average daily morphine equivalents.Results
Persons with SCI were significantly more likely to be long-term users of low-dose, short-acting opioids (P<.0001) and more likely to be taking high morphine-equivalent doses of long-acting opioids (P<.0001) than matched controls. Among persons with SCI, those with lumbar/sacral injuries had more days' supply of high-dose, long-acting opioids than did persons with thoracic or cervical injuries.Conclusions
Persons with SCI are prescribed opioids for longer durations and at higher morphine-equivalent doses than controls, which may increase the risk of opioid dependence or adverse drug events. Findings should be considered in the development of practice guidelines for alternate pain management options or opioid dependence interventions for persons with SCI. 相似文献11.

Objective
To investigate whether the Semmes-Weinstein monofilament examination (SWME) was associated with, and could predict, measures of physical performance and the risk of fall in older people.Design
Prospective study.Setting
Community.Participants
Older participants (N=2826) enrolled in the Progetto Veneto Anziani (Pro.V.A.) study and a subsample of persons (n=1885) who did not report falls at baseline for longitudinal analyses.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Falls reported in the year preceding the assessment and Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) were recorded at baseline and again after 4.4 years.Results
At baseline, 830 participants (29.4%) had experienced falls in the previous year, with a higher prevalence of falls in those positive at SWME than in those negative at SWME (35.8% vs 28.0%; P=.001). Using logistic regression, participants positive at SWME had a (significant) 66% higher risk of presenting worse SPPB score (95% confidence interval, 1.51–1.83) and between 25% and 32% higher risks of having experienced ≥1 fall or recurrent falls than did those negative at SWME. The incidence of falls at follow-up was higher in the positive SWME group than in the negative SWME group (42.2% vs 30.7%; P=.001), and multinomial logistic regression showed that the former had a 13% higher risk of decline in SPPB scores (95% confidence interval, 1.03–1.25), particularly for gait and balance; 48% higher risk of having had 1 fall; and 77% higher risk of recurrent falls. At both baseline and follow-up, the larger the extension of neuropathy (negative SWME vs unilateral impairment in positive SWME vs bilateral impairment in positive SWME), the greater its negative effect on falls and physical performance.Conclusions
SMWE was associated with, and could predict, lower extremity physical performance and falls in older people. 相似文献12.

Objective
To investigate the effect of a supervised upper limb (UL) program (SULP) compared to no supervised UL program (NULP) after lung transplantation (LTx).Design
Randomized controlled trial.Setting
Physiotherapy gym.Participants
Participants (N=80; mean age, 56±11y; 37 [46%] men) were recruited after LTx.Interventions
All participants underwent lower limb strength thrice weekly and endurance training. Participants randomized to SULP completed progressive UL strength training program using handheld weights and adjustable pulley equipment.Main Outcome Measures
Overall bodily pain was rated on the visual analog scale. Shoulder flexion and abduction muscle strength were measured on a hand held dynamometer. Health related quality of life was measured with Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short Form health Survey and the Quick Dash. Measurements were made at baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months by blinded assessors.Results
After 6 weeks of training, participants in the SULP (n=41) had less overall bodily pain on the visual analog scale than did participants in the NULP (n=36) (mean VAS bodily pain score, 2.1±1.3cm vs 3.8±1.7cm; P<.001) as well as greater UL strength than did participants in the NULP (mean peak force, 8.4±4.0Nm vs 6.7±2.8Nm; P=.037). At 12 weeks, participants in the SULP better quality of life related to bodily pain (76±17 vs 66±26; P=.05), but at 6 months there were no differences between the groups in any outcome measures. No serious adverse events were reported.Conclusions
UL rehabilitation results in short-term improvements in pain and muscle strength after LTx, but no longer-term effects were evident. 相似文献13.

Objective
To determine the impact of long-term, body weight–supported locomotor training after chronic, incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI), and to estimate the health care costs related to lost recovery potential and preventable secondary complications that may have occurred because of visit limits imposed by insurers.Design
Prospective observational cohort with longitudinal follow-up.Setting
Eight outpatient rehabilitation centers that participate in the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation NeuroRecovery Network (NRN).Participants
Individuals with motor incomplete chronic SCI (American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale C or D; N=69; 0.1–45y after SCI) who completed at least 120 NRN physical therapy sessions.Interventions
Manually assisted locomotor training (LT) in a body weight–supported treadmill environment, overground standing and stepping activities, and community integration tasks.Main Outcome Measures
International Standards for Neurological Classification of Spinal Cord Injury motor and sensory scores, orthostatic hypotension, bowel/bladder/sexual function, Spinal Cord Injury Functional Ambulation Inventory (SCI-FAI), Berg Balance Scale, Modified Functional Reach, 10-m walk test, and 6-minute walk test. Longitudinal outcome measure collection occurred every 20 treatments and at 6- to 12-month follow-up after discharge from therapy.Results
Significant improvement occurred for upper and lower motor strength, functional activities, psychological arousal, sensation of bowel movement, and SCI-FAI community ambulation. Extended training enabled minimal detectable changes at 60, 80, 100, and 120 sessions. After detectable change occurred, it was sustained through 120 sessions and continued 6 to 12 months after treatment.Conclusions
Delivering at least 120 sessions of LT improves recovery from incomplete chronic SCI. Because walking reduces rehospitalization, LT delivered beyond the average 20-session insurance limit can reduce rehospitalizations and long-term health costs. 相似文献14.

Objective
To determine whether resistance training to improve mobility outcomes after stroke adheres to the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) guidelines, and whether adherence was associated with better outcomes.Data Sources
Online databases searched from 1975 to October 30, 2016.Study Selection
Randomized controlled trials examining the effectiveness of lower limb strength training on mobility outcomes in adult participants with stroke.Data Extraction
Two independent reviewers completed data extraction. Quality of trials was determined using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Trials were scored based on their protocol's adherence to 8 ACSM recommendations. To determine if a relation existed between total adherence score and effect size, Spearman ρ was calculated, and between individual recommendations and effect size, Mann-Whitney U or Kruskal-Wallis tests were used.Data Synthesis
Thirty-nine trials met the inclusion criteria, and 34 were scored on their adherence to the guidelines. Adherence was high for frequency of training (100% of studies), but few trials adhered to the guidelines for intensity (32%), specificity (24%), and training pattern (3%). Based on the small number of studies that could be included in pooled analysis (n=12), there was no relation between overall adherence and effect size (Spearman ρ=?.39, P=.21).Conclusions
Adherence to the ACSM guidelines for resistance training after stroke varied widely. Future trials should ensure strength training protocols adhere more closely to the guidelines, to ensure their effectiveness in stroke can be accurately determined. 相似文献15.

Objective
To quantify the effect of exercise training on indices of pulmonary function in adults with chronic lung disease using meta-analytic techniques.Data Sources
Eligible trials were identified using a systematic search of MEDLINE, Web of Science, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, and GoogleScholar databases.Study Selection
Randomized controlled trials that evaluated pulmonary function before and after whole-body exercise training among adult patients (aged ≥19y) with chronic lung disease were included.Data Extraction
Data were independently extracted from each study by 3 authors. Random-effects models were used to aggregate a mean effect size (Hedges’ d; Δ) and 95% confidence interval (CI), and multilevel linear regression with robust maximum likelihood estimation was used to adjust for potential nesting effects.Data Synthesis
Among 2923 citations, a total of 105 weighted effects from 21 randomized controlled trials were included. After adjusting for nesting effects, exercise training resulted in a small (Δ=.18; 95% CI, .07–.30) and significant (P=.002) improvement in a composite measure of pulmonary function. Tests of heterogeneity of the mean effect size were nonsignificant.Conclusions
Contrary to prior assumptions, whole-body exercise training is effective for improving pulmonary function in adults with chronic lung disease, particularly spirometric indices. Subsequent studies are necessary to determine the optimal exercise training characteristics to maximize functional improvement. 相似文献16.

Objective
To determine the effects of a high-intensity exercise therapy using sensorimotor and visual stimuli on nondemented Parkinson disease (PD) patients’ clinical symptoms, mobility, and standing balance.Design
Randomized clinical intervention, using a before-after trial design.Setting
University hospital setting.Participants
A total of 72 PD patients with Hoehn and Yahr stage of 2-3, of whom 64 were randomized, and 55 completed the study.Intervention
PD patients were randomly assigned to a no physical intervention control (n=20 of 29 completed, 9 withdrew before baseline testing) or to a high-intensity agility program (15 sessions, 3 weeks, n=35 completed).Main Outcome Measures
Primary outcome was the Movement Disorders Society-Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) motor experiences of daily living (M-EDL). Secondary outcomes were Beck Depression score, Parkinson Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39), EuroQoL Five-Dimension (EQ5D) Questionnaire visual analog scale, Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living (SE ADL) Scale, timed Up and Go (TUG) test, and 12 measures of static posturography.Results
The agility program improved MDS-UPDRS M-EDL by 38% compared with the 2% change in control (group by time interaction, P=.001). Only the intervention group improved in PDQ-39 (6.6 points), depression (18%), EQ5D visual analog scale score (15%), the SE ADL Scale score (15%), the TUG test (39%), and in 8 of 12 posturography measures by 42%-55% (all P<.001). The levodopa equivalent dosage did not change.Conclusion
A high-intensity agility program improved nondemented, stage 2-3 PD patients’ clinical symptoms, mobility, and standing balance by functionally meaningful margins at short-term follow-up. 相似文献17.

Background
Accurate diagnosis of musculoskeletal disorders relies heavily on the physical examination, including accurate palpation of musculoskeletal structures. The literature suggests that there has been a deterioration of physical examination skills among medical students and residents, in part due to increased reliance on advanced imaging. It has been shown that knowledge of musculoskeletal anatomy and physical examination skills improve with the use of ultrasound; however, the literature is limited.Objective
To determine whether ultrasound can improve the ability of physicians in training (residents) to palpate the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) in the bicipital groove.Design
Prospective study design.Setting
Tertiary care center.Participants
Ten physical medicine and rehabilitation residents served as subjects. Exclusion criteria included the presence of any condition that precluded their ability to palpate. Three volunteers were used as models. Model exclusion criteria included anything that distorted normal shoulder anatomy or inhibited examiner palpation. Three investigators with experience performing diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound were used to confirm palpation attempts.Methods
Subjects attempted to palpate the LHBT bilaterally in the bicipital groove of each model. Investigators assessed the accuracy of the palpation attempt using real-time ultrasonography. Subjects participated in a 30-minute ultrasound-assisted training session learning how to palpate the LHBT in the bicipital groove with ultrasound confirmation. After the ultrasound training session, subjects again attempted to palpate the LHBT in the bicipital groove of each model with investigator confirmation.Main Outcome Measurements
LHBT palpation accuracy rates preintervention versus postintervention.Results
Pretraining LHBT palpation accuracy was 20% (12/60 attempts). Post-ultrasound training session accuracy was 51.7% (31/60 attempts; P ≤ .001).Conclusions
Our findings demonstrate that palpation accuracy improves after ultrasound assisted LHBT palpation training. These data suggest that the use of ultrasound may be beneficial when teaching musculoskeletal palpation skills to health care professionals.Level of Evidence

Objectives
To investigate the relation of gait training (GT) during inpatient rehabilitation (IPR) to outcomes of people with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).Design
Prospective observational study using the SCIRehab database.Setting
Six IPR facilities.Participants
Patients with new SCI (N=1376) receiving initial rehabilitation.Interventions
Patients were divided into groups consisting of those who did and did not receive GT. Patients were further subdivided based on their primary mode of mobility as measured by the FIM.Main Outcome Measures
Pain rating scales, Patient Health Questionnaire Mood Subscale, Satisfaction With Life Scale, and Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique (CHART).Results
Nearly 58% of all patients received GT, including 33.3% of patients who were primarily using a wheelchair 1 year after discharge from IPR. Those who used a wheelchair and received GT, received significantly less transfer and wheeled mobility training (P<.001). CHART physical independence (P=.002), mobility (P=.024), and occupation (P=.003) scores were significantly worse in patients who used a wheelchair at 1 year and received GT, compared with those who used a wheelchair and did not receive GT in IPR. Older age was also a significant predictor of worse participation as measured by the CHART.Conclusions
A significant percentage of individuals who are not likely to become functional ambulators are spending portions of their IPR stays performing GT, which is associated with less time allotted for other functional interventions. GT in IPR was also associated with participation deficits at 1 year for those who used a wheelchair, implying the potential consequences of opportunity costs, pain, and psychological difficulties of receiving unsuccessful GT. Clinicians should consider these data when deciding to implement GT during initial IPR. 相似文献19.

Objective
To assess the additional effect of a home-based neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) program as an add-on to pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), on functional capacity in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Design
Single-blind, multicenter randomized trial.Setting
Three PR centers.Participants
Subjects with severe to very severe COPD (N=73; median forced expiratory volume in 1 second, 1L (25th–75th percentile, 0.8–1.4L) referred for PR. Twenty-two subjects discontinued the study, but only 1 dropout was related to the intervention (leg discomfort).Intervention
Subjects were randomly assigned to either PR plus quadricipital home-based NMES (35Hz, 30min, 5 time per week) or PR without NMES for 8 weeks.Main Outcome Measure
The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) was used to assess functional capacity.Results
Eighty-two percent of the scheduled NMES sessions were performed. In the whole sample, there were significant increases in the distance walked during the 6MWT (P<.01), peak oxygen consumption (P=.02), maximal workload (P<.01), modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale (P<.01), and Saint George’s Respiratory Questionnaire total score (P=.01). There was no significant difference in the magnitude of change for any outcome between groups.Conclusions
Home-based NMES as an add-on to PR did not result in further improvements in subjects with severe to very severe COPD; moreover, it may have been a burden for some patients. 相似文献20.
