mHealth Impact on Gait and Dynamic Balance Outcomes in Neurorehabilitation: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
AbstractGait and dynamic balance are two main goals in neurorehabilitation that mHealth systems could address. To analyze the impact of using mHealth systems on gait and dynamic balance outcomes in subjects with neurological disorders. Randomized controlled trials (RCT) published in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and PEDro databases were searched up to April 2023. Studies including adults with neurological disorders, analyzing the effectiveness of mHealth systems on gait and dynamic balance compared with conventional therapy and/or not intervention, were included. The PEDro scale and the Cochrane Collaboration ’s 2.0 to...

Rehago - A Home-Based Training App Using Virtual Reality to Improve Functional Performance of Stroke Patients with Mirror Therapy and Gamification Concept: A Pilot Study
In this study, 48 stroke patients completed the full course of intervention with Rehago and their functional performance of pre- and post-intervention was investigated. The intervention with Rehago was predefined as 30 minutes training per day, 5 days per week over a course of 6 weeks. The patient's progress was evaluated by their therapists every 14 days, with a baseline assessment before the intervention began. The results showed an average improvement of 5.54 points in the Functional Independence Measurement score, and an improvement of 7.13 points in the assessed quality-of-life score (EQ5D-5L). An improvement of the F...

Intervention Platform for Action Observation and Motor Imagery Training After Stroke: Usability Test
Stud Health Technol Inform. 2022 May 16;292:71-74. doi: 10.3233/SHTI220324.ABSTRACTAction observation (AO) and motor imagery (MI) are considered as promising therapeutic approaches in the rehabilitation of patients after a stroke (PaS). Observing and mentally rehearsing motor movements stimulate the motor system in the brain and result in a positive effect on movement execution. To support patients in the early rehabilitation phase after a stroke, ANIMATE, a digital health intervention platform was developed. The platform guides the user through 6 activities of daily living by observing and imagining the corresponding move...

Real-time reviews of research findings will help policymakers address global crises such as COVID-19
Real-time reviews of research findings could help policymakers address global crises such as COVID-19, saysthis articlepublished inNature. Living evidence was first developed by Cochrane and an important recommendation for future health emergencies that came out of the recent Cochrane Convenes meetings. According to scientists writing in the peer-reviewed journal Nature, policy missteps will continue to overshadow the global response to COVID-19 because policymakers are overwhelmed with rapidly shifting research evidence. Faced with new challenges such as the Omicron variant, decision-makers can ’t keep up wi...

Development of a Mobile Application Platform for Self-Management of Obesity Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques
Int J Telemed Appl. 2021 Aug 27;2021:6624057. doi: 10.1155/2021/6624057. eCollection 2021.ABSTRACTObesity is a major global health challenge and a risk factor for the leading causes of death, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and several types of cancer. Attempts to manage and regulate obesity have led to the implementation of various dietary regulatory initiatives to provide information on the calorie contents of meals. Although knowledge of the calorie content is useful for meal planning, it is not sufficient as other factors, including health status (diabetes, hypertension, etc.) and level of physical activity,...
