Assessment of the relationship between Val66Met BDNF polymorphism and the effectiveness of gait rehabilitation in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy
Acta Neurobiol Exp (Wars). 2022;82(1):1-11. doi: 10.55782/ane-2022-001.ABSTRACTCerebral palsy (CP) is associated with the non‑progressive damage of upper motor neurons, which is manifested by a variety of symptoms, particularly motor and functional deficits. During the rehabilitation of patients with CP, attention is paid to improving mobility which can have a significant impact on the child's development. The effectiveness of rehabilitation depends on the plasticity of the nervous system, which may be genetically determined. Of importance are the various polymorphisms of the brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene...

Investigation of neural and biomechanical impairments leading to pathological toe and heel gaits using neuromusculoskeletal modelling
This study investigates the pathological toe and heel gaits in human locomotion using neuromusculoskeletal modelling and simulation. In particular, it aims at investigating potential cause-effect relationships between biomechanical or neural impairments and pathological gaits. Toe and heel gaits are commonly present in spinal cord injury, stroke or cerebral palsy. Toe walking is mainly attributed to spasticity and contracture at plantarflexor muscles, whereas heel walking can be attributed to muscle weakness from biomechanical or neural origin. To investigate the effect of these impairments on gait, this study focuses on t...

A systematic review on extracorporeal shock wave therapy and botulinum toxin for spasticity treatment: a comparison on efficacy
CONCLUSIONS: A beneficial effect on spasticity was found for both treatments: evidence showed that ESWT and BoNT-A can ameliorate spasticity considering parameters such as MAS, MTS, AROM, PROM, UE-FMA, VAS and SFS in post-stroke, multiple sclerosis, and cerebral palsy patients. Further research is required to strengthen the evidence, and more suitable study protocols are highly needed.PMID:35412036 | DOI:10.23736/S1973-9087.22.07136-2
