Filter by:Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is inflammatory, demyelinating and autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. It is usually seen with relapses and genetic and environmental factors play a role in the etiology. Neurological symptoms seen in MS restrict the patient's daily activity and social role participation. Mobility problems and fatigue are the most important reasons of role limitations and decreased quality of life. The importance of exercise training in disease management has been emphasized in recent years. However, few studies have investigated the effects of task-oriented trainings on symptoms of the disease. The aim of this sudy is to investigate the effects of task-oriented training additional to combined exercise training on functional capacity, mobility, balance, fatigue and quality of life in patients with MS.
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a common sport injury in both professional and recreational athletes. Furthermore, persistent quadriceps weakness and wasting are frequently observed after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Several studies have demonstrated that muscular rehabilitation to normal strength is difficult, protracted, and often not achieved due to the inability to fully activate the quadriceps voluntarily. Pain and disuse are often blamed for the inhibition of muscle activation following joint injury. However, arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) is often overlooked and not addressed. Thus, the magnitude of strength restoration of the quadriceps is frequently restricted despite solid rehabilitation protocols. As AMI is a reflex inhibition of musculature involving the neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyrate (GABA), Gabapentin may have a potential role in modulating AMI, therefore limiting muscle weakness after ACLR.
The aims of this study are to assess the performance of the non-invasive Electrical Impedance Technology (EIT) in evaluating the liver fibrosis stage in patients with chronic liver diseases, in comparisons with a liver biopsy and/or Shear wave elastography and Liver Ultrasonography. The second aim is comparing between Liver Ultrasonography and Electrical Impedance Technology (EIT) to quantify the hepatic steatosis grade in patients with Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) .
Assess the renal changes in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD).
Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Prolonged Neurosurgical Operations
This study will conducted to evaluate and comparison between the effectiveness, safety and acceptability of lactoferrin alone, ferrous fumarate alone and combination of both for the treatment of mild to moderate IDA during pregnancy.
Since the cornea is the main responsible for the refraction of the eye, as its refractive power is greater than 70% of the total refraction of the eye, so modification of its refractive properties are used to change the optical system of the eye. Hence, laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis has become the most commonly procedure used to correct the refractive errors of the eye. The most important step in laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis is the creation of the corneal flap, which its thickness may judge the whole outcome of the surgery . So trying to minimize the variation in the thickness of the resultant flap in comparison to what planned flap thickness preoperatively become our target.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common complications of general anesthesia in pediatrics. Pediatric rates of nausea and vomiting are approximately double those of adult patients. The physiology of PONV is complex and not perfectly understood. According to our current model, the brain structures involved in the pathophysiology of vomiting are distributed throughout the medulla oblongata of the brainstem, not centralized in an anatomically defined 'vomiting centre. Such structures include the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CRTZ), located at the caudal end of the fourth ventricle in the area postrema, and the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), located in the area postrema and lower pons.
The main objective of this research is to develop a new scanning technology called the Fast Raman device, to accurately check the skin removed by the surgeon and detect any residual cancer cells; if found, additional skin can then be removed by surgeons on the same day. The device will be tested first for patients undergoing Mohs micrographic surgery, then be extended to wide-local excisions of basal cell carcinoma (BCC). This study will determine the validity (sensitivity/specificity) and reliability (inter- and intra-user variability) of the Fast Raman device for checking the completeness of tumour removal during Mohs micrographic surgery of BCC.
