The participants were randomly divided into five groups, self-action observation (sAO), observation of a third person (AO), action practice (AP), non-action observation (nAO), and control. A single session was performed for all participants. The primary outcome was the Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test (JTHFT) assessed by a masked assessor.Results: Significant differences were observed between the sAO and control group in total left side JTHFT performance (p < 0.001). Additionally, there were significant differences between the AO and control group (p < 0.001), and AP and nAO group (p = 0.003) and AP and control group (p < 0.001) in total JTHFT performance change of the left side. Significant differences were found between the sAO and nAO (p = 0.001) and control groups (p < 0.001) in dominant side total JTHFT performance change. No difference between sAO and AP groups were observed (p > 0.05).Conclusion: It was observed that a single session of action observation training improved hand function in healthy adults. The better performance achieved in the group watching the self-video may suggest that watching the self-image activates more mirror neurons.","PeriodicalId":49498,"journal":{"name":"Somatosensory and Motor Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10488508","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}

However, it is yet unknown whether these variables differentiate between acute, subacute and chronic stages of LBP. The aim was to investigate if there were any differences in postural control, proprioception, lower extremity muscle strength, pain intensity and disability between individuals in the different stages of LBP.Materials and methods: In this cross-sectional study, 124 individuals with LBP were grouped as acute LBP (ALBP) (n = 38), subacute LBP (SLBP) (n = 30) and chronic LBP (CLBP) (n = 56) groups. Postural control was assessed via computerised technology. Lumbar proprioception, lower extremity muscle strength, pain intensity and disability were assessed using Joint Repositioning Error Test, hand-held dynamometer, Numeric Rating Scale and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), respectively. Kruskal-Wallis Tests, ANCOVA and post hoc Mann-Whitney U-Test with Bonferroni correction were performed.Results: While there were no significant differences in terms of postural control, proprioception and pain intensity (p > 0.05), significant differences were found in terms of lower extremity muscle strength and ODI scores between groups when adjusted for age (p < 0.05). Individuals with CLBP demonstrated poorer lower extremity muscle strength than those with ALBP and SLBP, and higher disability than those with ALBP (p < 0.017).Conclusions: Although postural control, proprioception and pain intensity were similar between individuals with acute, subacute and chronic LBP, muscle strength and disability seem to worsen stepwise as the pain becomes chronic. Muscle strength and disability should be taken into account while evaluating and/or managing individuals with acute and subacute stages of LBP.","PeriodicalId":49498,"journal":{"name":"Somatosensory and Motor Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10519109","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}

Posture was measured by the New York posture rating chart, flexibility of the hamstring and pectoral muscles were assessed with flexibility tests, and endurance of the core muscles was measured with plank test. Depression levels were measured by Beck Depression Inventory, sleep quality was measured by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and Nottingham Health Profile was used to measure the perceived health levels of the subjects. Measurement of the core stability was performed with the Stabilizer Pressure Biofeedback. Two evaluations were made at baseline and after 4 weeks of exercise program.Results: Although statistically significant results were achieved for all parameters in the M-Gravity group, no differences were observed in the control group between baseline and post-test scores (p < 0.05).Conclusions: We came to the idea that eight sessions of M-Gravity program may have positive effects on posture, physical fitness and quality of life in women who do not have regular exercise habits.","PeriodicalId":49498,"journal":{"name":"Somatosensory and Motor Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10685234","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}

The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that granisetron, a selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, would decrease the duration of motor block, sensory block, and proprioception in a dose-dependent fashion in a rat model of bupivacaine-induced sciatic nerve blockade.Materials and methods: Thirty-eight male Wistar Albino rats that received unilateral sciatic nerve blocks were randomly divided into five experimental groups.

Moreover, although there was a significant improvement in favour of the study group for extension, lateral flexion, right rotation and left rotation in the neck ROM, there was no significant difference in flexion measurements between the study and control group.Conclusion: In addition to the traditional rehabilitation program, DTM is effective on neck ROM, pain, disability and quality of life.

In contrast, the activation intensity (BOLD) displayed a significant difference for S1 per finger and phalanx and for BA3, where the activation voxel had no significant variation. In addition, while the result of S1 did not indicate whether the index or the little fingers had the highest sensitivity based on the BOLD signal per finger, the result of BA3 marked the strongest BOLD signal for the little finger as a response to 250 Hz vibratory stimulation. The activation intensity per phalanx was the highest for the intermediate phalanx for S1 and BA3, which was in line with a previous study comparing the activation voxel.Conclusions: The method based on the intensity of the nerve activation is presumed to have high sensitivity as the signal intensity is monitored within a specific, defined area.

The secondary outcome was pain assessed by the visual analogue scale. Assessments were performed before and after primary and secondary treatments.Results: In Group A, the SOT conditions 4, 5, 6; composites score; and visual and vestibular system scores increased after BBAT; however, only condition five scores and vestibular system scores increased (p < .05) in Group B, which started with CT. Within the groups, both treatments were effective for easing pain (p < .05).Conclusions: Although patients who started the therapy with BBAT showed more improvement in balance, no differences were observed between the therapies.","PeriodicalId":49498,"journal":{"name":"Somatosensory and Motor Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10763998","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}
