Effect of maximal-intensity and high-intensity interval training on exercise capacity and Quality of Life in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Compared to HIIT and usual care, MIIT significantly increased the V̇O<inf>2max</inf> and was as safe as HIIT in patients with acute MI with low and moderate cardiac risk in CR. Additionally, MIIT and HIIT were superior to usual care in terms of improving the HRQoL.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Our results suggest that increased intensity in phase II CR could result in better outcomes in terms of V̇O<inf>2max</inf> increment in patients with acute MI and low and moderate cardiac risk in CR.PMID:37906165 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.23.08094-2 (Source: European Journal of Physical and Re...

Foam roller-based self-induced myofascial therapy in patients with hemophilic knee arthropathy: a multicenter, single-blind, randomized clinical study
CONCLUSIONS: Self-induced myofascial therapy can be an effective complementary technique in the treatment of patients with hemophilic arthropathy. Self-induced myofascial therapy can reduce the frequency of knee hemarthrosis in patients with hemophilia. This technique can improve pain intensity and range of motion in patients with hemophilic knee arthropathy.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Hemophilic knee arthropathy is characterized by chronic pain, decreased range of motion, and periarticular muscle atrophy. Foam roller-based self-induced myofascial therapy can reduce the frequency of hemarthrosis and pain intensity and ...

ToulGaitViz: a tool for the systematic description of lower limb clearance during the swing phase of hemiparetic gait after stroke. A cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: The ToulGaitViz could be systematically used in clinical practice to extract relevant kinematic data from the origin of shortening default and the weight of compensations.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: This tool allows better understanding of the mechanisms of action of treatments to better link them to the subjects' needs.PMID:37869760 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.23.07979-0 (Source: European Journal of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine)

Feasibility, safety, and efficacy of task-oriented mirrored robotic training on upper-limb functions and activities of daily living in subacute poststroke patients: a pilot study
CONCLUSIONS: In general, task-oriented mirrored upper-limb robotic training appears feasible and safe for subacute poststroke rehabilitation, facilitating the recovery of upper-limb functions and activities of daily living.CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Task-oriented mirrored upper-limb robotic training shows promise for future clinical rehabilitation and clinical trials involving subacute poststroke patients.PMID:37869761 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.23.08018-8 (Source: European Journal of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine)
