Filter by:Hereditary spastic paraplegia type 4 is the most frequent mutation of hereditary spastic paraplegias. It is commonly described as pure, with progressive weakness of the lower limbs, pyramidal syndrome and vesico-sphincter disorders. However, cognitive disorders have been reported for over 20 years, but remain poorly characterized.
Hereditary spastic paraparesis is a group of inherited neurological diseases. Only symptomatic treatments exist for the moment. The Modifspa study (cf citation) carried out by the team showed that patients perceived a feeling of effectiveness of physiotherapy on lower limb spasticity. The aim of the Walk-up study is to objectivize this feeling of efficacy on gait disorders in these patients. This is an interventional study using physical training. The study is prospective, open, randomized in 2 parallel groups, one of which is a control group. Analyses will be comparative between the 2 groups during the course of the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the improvement of motor functions related symptoms in patients with stroke and spasticity using Exopulse Mollii suit stimulation. The main questions it aims to answer are: to evaluate the short-term impact of EXOPULSE Mollii suit on balance in adult patients with stroke and suffering from spasticity. to assess the effects of Exopulse Mollii suit on spasticity, mobility, pain, fatigue and QoL. . Participants will participate in: One baseline visit for inclusion during which the patient will undergo the first session (active or sham) along with evaluations (before and after the session) One visit after two weeks during which the patient will undergo the second session (active or sham) along with evaluations (before and after the session) One visit after two weeks of the second stimulation condition; the patients will undergo a third evaluation and receive the EXOPULSE Mollii Suit for the four-week open label phase and will use the suit at home for an active stimulation session every other day for four weeks. One visit at the end of the open label phase to perform the fourth and last evaluation and return the EXOPULSE Mollii suit. Researchers will compare both Active and Sham groups to demonstrate the improvement of motor functions related symptoms in patients with stroke and spasticity using Exopulse Mollii suit.
Due to an early brain injury occurring in antenatal or postnatal, cerebral palsy (CP) causes alteration in motor function with posture and gait disorders. It is commonly observed motor performance degradation during adulthood, and the underlying pathophysiology remains poorly known.
Spasticity is often observed as muscle tightness and stiffness in the upper and/or lower limbs. Upper limb spasticity can interfere with joint movement and its severity can range from mild to severe. This study will assess how effective OnabotulinumtoxinA is in treating pediatric participants with Spasticity. Change in disease activity will be evaluated. OnabotulinumtoxinA is approved drug for treatment of Spasticity. Approximately 106 pediatric participants aged 2-17 years with spasticity associated with cerebral palsy will be enrolled in approximately 10 sites across Mexico. Participants will receive OnabotulinumtoxinA as prescribed by their physician in accordance to local label and followed for 12 months. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. Participants will attend regular visits to a hospital or clinic in their routine practice.
This RCT aims to investigate the effect of repetitive transcranial magnatic stimulation (rTMS) in treating children with hemiplegoc cerebral palsy. The study will measure any improvement in spasticity after using contra-lesional inhibitory rTMS follow by intensive limb training. Participants will attend a 10-day rTMS treatment sessions, follow by intensive training of the impaired limb. They will also undergo MRI scans before and after the treatment to investiagte the underlying neurophysiological mechanisms that lead to changes clinically by using TMS as well as MR-DKI. Researchers will compare the intervention group and the sham group to see if rTMS could result in improvement of participants' spasticity.
To assess the safety and tolerability of single and multiple doses of MTR-601 in normal healthy volunteers under fed and fasted conditions. To evaluate the plasma and urine pharmacokinetics (PK) of MTR-601. To evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of MTR-601 on muscle strength and muscle accumulation of MTR-601 by muscle biopsy and other potential mechanistic, predictive and PD markers of MTR-601.
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common developmental disorder in childhood. Individuals' independence in daily living activities and participation in education, games, social and community activities are restricted. Technology applications in the field of rehabilitation are gaining momentum. EXOPULSE Mollii Suit method, one of the newest rehabilitation technology products, is a non-invasive neuromodulation approach with a garment that covers the whole body and electrodes placed inside. Designed to improve motor function by reducing spasticity and pain, the method is based on the principle of reciprocal inhibition, which occurs by stimulating the antagonist of a spastic muscle at low frequencies and intensities. Therefore, the aim of our study is to examine the effectiveness of the Mollii Suit application on gross and fine motor function, spasticity severity, balance, walking, selective motor control, postural control, daily living activities, quality of life, pain and sleep quality in individuals with ambulatory spastic CP.
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive neurological disorder characterized by a persistent decline in sensory, cognitive or especially gross and fine motor functions during infancy or early childhood. In children with spastic CP, spasticity, muscle weakness, delay in motor development, inadequacy of gross and fine motor skills, selective motor control and functional capacity may be affected. Selective motor control (SMC) is the ability to isolate a muscle or muscle group to perform a specific movement. In children with CP, spasticity directly causes impairment of SMC, as movement patterns governed by flexor or extensor synergies are affected, which inhibits functional movements. Motor dysfunction in CP causes activity limitations and can negatively affect functional capacity. In addition, falls may increase in individuals with CP due to poor balance control, resulting in pain, injury and disability, and may cause individuals to lose confidence in their ability to perform routine activities. Increased fear of falling in individuals with CP may also lead to restriction of activities.It was discussed that the interactive computer game has possible evidence of efficacy allowing to improve gross motor function in individuals with CP. It also appears to have the potential to produce gross motor improvements in terms of strength, balance, coordination and gait for individuals with CP.As a result of our literature review, studies investigating the effect of virtual reality games on gait, balance and coordination in children with CP were observed. However, the effect of virtual reality games on selective motor control has not been sufficiently investigated. The aim of our study, which is planned to eliminate this deficiency in the literature, is to investigate the effect of video game-based exercise training, which provides higher motivation than conventional physical therapy methods, on selective motor control, fear of falling and functional capacity in individuals with CP.
The purpose of this project is to examine and compare the immediate and long-term effects of combined Botulinum toxin type A(BoNT-A) injection with exoskeleton Robotic assisted gait training (RABT) in patients with post-stroke stiff-knee gait.
