Dry needling in stroke

open access: yesExploration of Neuroprotective Therapy, 2022
Stroke causes acute neurological deficit which is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Neurorehabilitation is an important dimension in the management of post-stroke deficits. Spasticity, pain, and neurological deficits are contributors to post-

Impaired H-Reflex Adaptations Following Slope Walking in Individuals With Post-stroke Hemiparesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background and Purpose: Short term adaptations in the Ia afferent-motoneuron pathway, as measured using the H-reflex, in response to altered ground reaction forces (GRFs) applied at the feet during slope walking have been observed in the non-impaired ...

Cycle-to-cycle control of swing phase of paraplegic gait induced by surface electrical stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Parameterised swing phase of gait in paraplegics was obtained using surface electrical stimulation of the hip flexors, hamstrings and quadriceps; the hip flexors were stimulated to obtain a desired hip angle range, the hamstrings to provide foot ...

Cost minimization analysis of BoNT-As in the treatment of upper limb spasticity and cervical dystonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) injections are recommended for the management of upper limb spasticity (ULS) and cervical dystonia (CD). The main aim of this cost minimization analysis (CMA) was to compare the annual cost per patient for three BoNT-As ...

Associations between muscle morphology and spasticity in children with spastic cerebral palsy

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Paediatric Neurology, 2023
Due to the heterogeneous clinical presentation of spastic cerebral palsy (SCP), which makes spasticity treatment challenging, more insight into the complex interaction between spasticity and altered muscle morphology is warranted.We studied associations between spasticity and muscle morphology and compared muscle morphology between commonly observed ...

The correlation between lower limb spasticity and proprioceptive dysfunction in post-stroke patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between lower limb spasticity and proprioception in stroke patients, to analyze the influencing factors of spasticity, and to evaluate the predictive value of musculoskeletal ultrasound parameters on spasticity ...

Shared and distinct voxel-based lesion-symptom mappings for spasticity and impaired movement in the hemiparetic upper limb

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Hemiparesis and spasticity are common co-occurring manifestations of hemispheric stroke. The relationship between impaired precision and force in voluntary movement (hemiparesis) and the increment in muscle tone that stems from dysregulated activity of ...

Electrical Stimulation of Injected Muscles to Boost Botulinum Toxin Effect on Spasticity: Rationale, Systematic Review and State of the Art

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) represents a first-line treatment for spasticity, a common disabling consequence of many neurological diseases. Electrical stimulation of motor nerve endings has been reported to boost the effect of BoNT-A. To date, a wide

SPG10 is a rare cause of spastic paraplegia in European families [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: SPG10 is an autosomal dominant form of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), which is caused by mutations in the neural kinesin heavy chain KIF5A gene, the neuronal motor of fast anterograde axonal transport.
