Both groups completed the Social Provisions Scale (SPS-10), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Medical Outcome Study Short Form (SF-12) to assess social support, depression, and quality of life. Additionally, parents of children with CP completed the Impact on Family Scale to evaluate caregiving burden. The results showed that parents of children with CP reported lower social support and higher depression levels than controls ( P < 0.05). However, their quality of life (both physical and mental scores) was similar to the control group ( P > 0.05). Only depression was significantly linked to lower quality of life ( P < 0.05) in parents of children with CP. In conclusion, parents of children with CP have a comparable physical and mental health-related quality of life to parents of typically developing children, despite experiencing lower perceived social support and higher levels of depression in Benin country.

The TS group received coarse sand stimulation (rubbing) over the affected hand and forearm for 15 min per session. The TENS group underwent electrical stimulation applied to the affected forearm for 30 min per session (10 Hz), while the control group received sham stimulation with 1 min of active current. Hand function was assessed with the Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments and grip strength, dexterity with the box and block test and Southampton hand assessment procedure, and performance in daily activities with the assessment of motor and process skills. In the TS group, patients significantly improved hand sensory perception, grip strength, and dexterity while the TENS group showed improvement in grip strength and dexterity. The control group exhibited no significant changes. Between-group comparisons revealed significant differences favoring TS for hand sensory perception and TENS for dexterity.

Thus, we aimed to examine the existing evidence on the efficacy of BTX-A injections for reducing MFP in the neck and shoulder areas. This was a systematic review of Medline, Embase, Cinahl, Scopus, and Central databases. Only randomized controlled trials were included. Random effects meta-analysis with effect size index as weighted mean difference (WMD) was applied. The search resulted in 100 records, of them seven were considered relevant and included in the meta-analysis. In total, the data from 261 patients were analyzed. Five trials focused on entire neck/upper back and shoulder pain, one on the infraspinatus muscle and one on the trapezius muscle. The dose of BTX-A varied from 20 to 400 UI. The risk of systematic bias was high for three trials and low for four trials. The pooled WMD was statistically significant [-10.22 (95% confidence interval (CI) -12.77 to -7.68)] on a scale from 0 to 100 in favor of BTX-A over sham. However, the difference was not clinically significant. Also, the meta-regression coefficient was insignificant [-0.01 (95% CI -0.04 to 0.02)]. The overall quality of evidence was moderate. In conclusion, there is moderate evidence that BTX-A injections are not more effective than saline injections to treat MFP in the neck and shoulder region. The effect of BTX-A did not exceed the level of clinical significance. So far, BTX-A cannot be recommended for clinical use when dealing with MFP in the neck and shoulder.","PeriodicalId":14301,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Rehabilitation Research","volume":"48 2","pages":"83-89"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143997418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This observational study aims to assess changes in PA and SB levels among cLBP patients participating in a rehabilitation program (RP) and explore related changes in both explicit and implicit motivational factors. Patients wore an accelerometer for 1 week before the RP (T1) and 3 months afterward (T4) to measure PA and SB. At the start (T2) and at the end (T4) of the RP, we measured motivation, including implicit attitudes, toward these two behaviors. Between T1 and T4 ( n = 33), the results show a significant decrease in SB. Between T2 and T3 ( n = 62), all motivational variables were significantly more in favor of an active lifestyle, but implicit attitudes did not significantly change. This study shows that an RP can transform behavior determinants and reduce SB but is less efficient to increase PA levels. It also emphasizes the need to work with patients to enhance adherence and objectively measure behaviors in the future.","PeriodicalId":14301,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Rehabilitation Research","volume":"48 2","pages":"106-112"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143999772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twelve individuals with cerebellar ataxia and 12 matched controls performed a foot-reaching task under controlled conditions. Participants practiced reaching three target distances without visual feedback. Kinematic data were collected using a motion tracking system, and performance was assessed during the practice, retention, and transfer phases. Statistical analyses evaluated learning effects and group differences. Both groups improved foot position control with practice, though cerebellar patients showed higher initial error rates. Retention tests confirmed learning, with reduced errors immediately and 24 h postpractice [F(2,44) = 25.20, P < 0.01]. Transfer tests revealed significant improvements in novel distance tasks for cerebellar patients, but limited generalization to vertical distance conditions [F(2,44) = 7.43, P < 0.01]. Repetitive foot position control practice promotes motor learning and partial generalization in cerebellar patients, indicating preserved neuroplasticity.
