Exercise-Based Rehabilitation Following Lower-Limb Revascularisation in Patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease: A Scoping Review

Diseases
Objective: Exercise therapy is recommended for patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) to improve walking capacity and functional outcomes. However, rehabilitation programmes after lower-limb revascularisation remain poorly defined.

The International Consortium for Arthrogryposis: A Collaborative Framework for Early Detection, Care, Research, and Education

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a group of rare congenital conditions, characterized by multiple joint contractures but may involve any body system including central nervous system. AMC is etiologically heterogeneous, with over 400 genetic and many non‐genetic causes implicated in its prenatal development.

Neuromechanical measurement of motor impairments in relation to upper limb activity limitations after stroke

, 2011
Loss of upper-limb function is a problem following stroke. Recent research has led to the emergence of new treatments but progress is hampered by lack of reliable objective measures of impairment, and understanding of the underlying impairment mechanisms

The EXPLAIN Study: Exploring Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita in Adults in Norway — A Description of Demographic, Medical, and Neurological Findings

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) encompasses several hundred conditions with diverse genetic, pathophysiological, and clinical origins. The overarching EXPLAIN study explores underlying causes and implications of AMC and represents the largest clinical cohort of adults with AMC reported to date.

Understanding Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) Across the Lifespan: An Integrative Review of the Adult AMC Registry's Contributions With Lived Experience Partnerships

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This reflective essay explores how collaborative work between researchers and adults living with Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) has deepened and broadened our understanding of what it means to live with this rare condition. By intentionally integrating the lived experiences of individuals with AMC into research processes, the ...

Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita in Pediatric Age: Correlation Between MUScular MRI and Functional Evaluation (AMUSE), Toward a Biomechanical Model

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) is a group of diseases with joint limitations at two or more distinct joint levels at birth. Joint limitations are not progressive, but the functional consequences have a lifelong impact on patients. The management of these conditions is therefore demanding, necessarily multidisciplinary, and is a long ...

Prenatal Detection of Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita, Present State and Future Perspectives

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by congenital contractures in at least two different body regions. Despite increasingly widespread prenatal ultrasound screening, prenatal detection rates for AMC remain disappointingly low, with fewer than half of affected fetuses diagnosed before ...
