Quantification of urinary loss in nulliparous athletes during 1-hour of sports training
urinary incontinence (UI) is a pelvic floor dysfunction that can affect nulliparous female athletes due to the effect of sports modalities on the pelvic floor muscles (PFM). (Source: PM and R)

Ultrasonographic Evaluation for the Effect of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on Gastrocnemius Muscle Spasticity in Patients with Chronic Stroke
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) has been suggested as a useful treatment for spasticity in patients with stroke. To data, most studies used clinical or biomechanical assessments to determine the effects of treatment. (Source: PM and R)

Profiling the isokinetic muscle strength of athletes involved in sports characterized by constantly varied functional movements performed at high intensity: a cross-sectional study
Constantly varied functional movements performed at high intensity (FMHI) is a type of strength and general conditioning program that has gained widespread popularity in recent years. The very intense exercises performed with lower and upper limbs may create muscular asymmetry or imbalance between agonist and antagonist muscles, and therefore the characterization of isokinetic muscle strength, side-to-side difference and balance ratios for lower and upper limbs may contribute to a better understanding of the modality characteristics.

Impact of Neck Position on the Probability of Common Carotid Artery Puncture During Ultrasound-Guided Stellate Ganglion Block
The carotid artery must be avoided during stellate ganglion block. However, information on optimal neck position during the ultrasound-guided approach is limited. (Source: PM and R)

A review of botulinum toxin A for the treatment of neurogenic bladder
Prior to FDA approval of intradetrusor botulinum toxin (BoTA) injections for the treatment of neurogenic bladder, patients had limited treatment options including ‘off-label’ use of pharmacotherapies (anti-cholinergics, beta agonists, and alpha-blockers) or invasive interventions including bladder augmentation and urinary diversion procedures. Herein, we provide a comprehensive, literature review detailing the salient clinical literature which led to FDA approval of intradetrusor BoTA for neurogenic bladder, Patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity and detrusor sphincter dyssynergia have been shown in randomized ...

A single trial may be used for measuring muscle strength with dynamometers in individuals with stroke: A cross-sectional study
The mean of three trials is commonly employed to report measures of muscle strength after a stroke. However, only a single trial showed to provide consistent and reliable results regarding dynamometric measures of grip, pinch, and trunk strength in individuals with stroke. Nevertheless, there were not found any studies that investigated whether only a single trial could also be used for the assessment of strength of the upper and lower-limb muscles. (Source: PM and R)

Virtual Reality for Neurorehabilitation: Insights From 3 European Clinics
Virtual reality for the treatment of motor impairment is a burgeoning application of digital technology in neurorehabilitation. Virtual reality systems pose an opportunity for health care providers to augment the dose of task-oriented exercises delivered both in the clinic, and via telerehabilitation models in the home. The technology is almost exclusively applied as an adjunct to traditional approaches and is typically characterized by the use of gamified exergames which feature task-oriented physiotherapy exercises.
