Filter by:''This study aims to determine the relationship between functional movement screen (FMS), core stabilization and Y balance test. The study will include evaluations on 30 handball players and 30 sedentary individuals.'' Functional movement analysis is a biomechanical screening and evaluation system to identify limitations and asymmetries in 7 basic movements. This system reveals the kinetic chain interaction between mobility and stability required for basic performance. Unlike conventional assessment methods, FHA focuses on the efficiency and quality of the movement pattern, not on the number of repetitions or weight lifted. The main aim of the study was to reveal the relationship between functional movement screen and core endurance and Y balance test evaluations in handball players with objective data. Functional movement is the general name of the activities performed by individuals for function and the movements performed by individuals for function are examined with analysis methods. In an effective analysis, if people do not have appropriate stability and mobility, it is determined from which muscle-muscle group or joint the problem originates. Analyses play a role in determining which of the stabilization, mobilization and flexibility factors are problematic at which stage of the function. In addition, these methods are effective in preventing possible injuries while helping to improve balance, strength and power characteristics of individuals. Core stabilization problems cause significant posture and stabilization problems. These problems are reflected in functional movements. Core stabilization problems are thought to have negative effects on functional movement analysis scores. Active athletes with this problem will be more affected. This study also aimed to observe the differences between athletes and sedentary individuals. Studies defined the core as the part of the body in the musculoskeletal system consisting of the proximal lower extremities, abdominal structures, hips, pelvis and spine and stated that the core muscles are composed of the trunk and pelvis muscles. It is argued that trunk and pelvis stabilization is essential for all movements of the extremities. The transversus abdominis and multifidus work in cocontraction and control excessive anterior pelvic tilt, which is known to be associated with femoral internal rotation and adduction. The musculature of the core is referred to as the muscular corset over the trunk and spine that stabilizes the body with or without limb movement. The strength and stabilization of the core affects the fitness and physical fitness of athletes. Core exercises should be included in exercise programs planned to improve athletic performance. Core endurance tests have been defined to reveal the relationship between core stabilization and performance. Lateral bridge test and trunk flexor test are the preferred core endurance tests in this study. The Y balance test is a dynamic test that requires strength, flexibility, core control and proprioception in a single-legged stance. Functional movement analysis, core stabilization tests and Y balance test are assessment scales that provide objective data on stabilization, postural alignment and spinal alignment. It is envisaged that these three assessment parameters will support each other after the study. Functional movements are widely used during both daily and sports activities. Core stabilization and dynamic balance are the factors that determine the quality of functional movements. These movements become more important for athletes as they affect their sporting success. Athletes need a good evaluation to ensure and maintain success. Since handball is defined as a sport that requires a lot of effort, the risks increase and it becomes clear that the evaluation should be done with a holistic approach.Injuries in handball develop due to multifactors.Biomechanical, kinesthetic and functional losses in players should be determined to prevent injuries.Functional movement analysis, core stabilization, Y balance test will give us detailed information about posture, limb alignment and asymmetry, spinal smoothness, dynamic balance and will give us the chance to analyze whether there is a correlation between these tests.
A pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) of single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) over the motor cortex to investigate efficacy in improving motor FND symptoms and to make a preliminary investigation of predictors of response to TMS and potential mechanisms of action.
A cross-sectional study (part 1) aims to investigate the influence of fatigue on the MI ability in PD compared to healthy controls. A randomized controlled trial (part 2) aims to compare the effect of fNIRS-based NFB-MI on balance and gait performance versus MI only in people with PD.
The goal of this qualitative and quantitative cross-sectional observational study is to describe the complexity of the diagnostic pathway for Functional Neurological Symptomatology Disorder (TSNF) in children and adolescents based on the experience of the different protagonists of care (parents, adolescents, caregivers). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - How do the various stakeholders experiences the care pathway for children and adolescents with a diagnosis of TSNF - What are their expectations regarding the diagnosis and management of TSNF Participants will be enrolled in interviews in which they will describe their experience. Parents will also answer a lifestyle questionnaire.
Spasticity can result from a variety of causes in neural axis from which most common are cerebral palsy, strokes, cerebral haemorrhage, multiple sclerosis , traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury and underlying mechanism is broadly due to decrease inhibition of the spinal network. Clinical evaluation for spasticity involve series of clinical assessment , physical examination , and neurophysiological testing. quantitative evaluation of spasticity can be measured using modified Ashworth scale which is the most widely used clinical spasticity scale and can be used for various clinical conditions causing spasticity
The goal of this study is to learn about the brain network response in people who have functional neurological disorder who are administered with a single dose of the psychedelic psilocybin with therapeutic support. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the default mode network, a brain network thought to be relevent in FND, be modified by the administration of psilocybin based on functional magnetic resonance imaging before and after the dose?
A significant proportion of patients with functional neurological disorders (FND) report urinary, anorectal or genitosexual disorders. However, until now, no study has focused on bladder-sphincter disorders in patients with FND. The symptoms of this pathology are, therefore, not precisely characterized. Thus, the objective of this research is to specify if urinary, anorectal or sexual disorders can be observed in patients suffering from functional neurological disorders and to better describe them in order to propose better therapeutic options.
Randomized-clinical trial of multidisciplinary approach versus psychoeducation in patients with functional movement disorders: impact to their quality of life and their caregivers' quality of life. Patients with functional movement disorders are randomized in two arms of a one-month treatment (physiotherapy + cognitive-behavioral therapy versus psychoeducational as sham intervention) with a 3-month and 5-month follow-up where the investigators will measure the change in the patients' and caregivers' quality of life. Movement disorders specialists will review the severity of symptoms as blinded raters in the 3th-month and 5th-month follow-up.
This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of novel cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)-based intervention designed to improve functional memory symptoms after concussion. Participants will be randomized to CBT or an attention-matched control intervention (cognitive rehabilitation). The primary outcomes for this trial are feasibility metrics, including recruitment, patient-perceived credibility of treatment, patient adherence to treatment, therapists' compliance with the treatment protocol, and retention.
Adult Psychiatry Clinic Medical University of Gdańsk (MUG) is a healthcare facility that provides ketamine treatment to adult patients suffering from mental health conditions. The Clinic especially treats individuals suffering from treatment-resistant disorders, like - mood disorders, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive and related disorders, trauma and stressor-related disorders, somatic symptom and related disorders, and dissociative disorders. Herein, this naturalistic observation aims to look at the safety and tolerability of ketamine treatment to further develop the understanding of ketamine in the use of psychiatry.
