“…erefore, in the clinical rehabilitation training of stroke patients, the training of core trunk muscles is conducive to improving the coordination and control of various motor muscles; optimizing the generation, transmission, and control of strength; improving movement efficiency; and promoting the recovery of limbs [18]. Some foreign scholars believed that [19] respiratory dysfunction could affect the control ability and balance ability of trunk and recovery of limb function. us, the implementation of respiratory training can improve the patients' respiratory muscle strength and 1: Comparison of MoCA scores of the two groups before and after intervention (x ± s, points).…”

Stroke is a cerebral ischemic or hemorrhagic disease with sudden onset and rapid progress. To analyze the effect of respiratory training combined with core muscle training on the overall motor function and activities of daily living of patients with early and midterm stroke, 90 cases with early and midterm stroke admitted to the neurological department of our hospital from April 2018 to April 2019 were chosen as the research objects. According to the odd or even hospitalization numbers, they were equally divided into the study group and the reference group. Both groups received basic drug treatment. On this basis, the reference group was given routine rehabilitation training, while the study group was given respiratory training combined with core muscle training. The clinical indexes of both groups before and after intervention were evaluated to analyze the effect of different training methods on the rehabilitation of patients with early and midterm stroke. There was no significant difference in gender ratio, average age, average BMI, average course of disease, stroke types, MAS grading, location of limb dysfunction, and combined disease between the two groups ( P < 0.05 ). The total clinical effective rate of the study group after intervention was obviously higher than that of the reference group ( P < 0.05 ). The MoCA scores of both groups after intervention were obviously higher than those before intervention, and the score of the study group after intervention was obviously higher than that of the reference group. The scores of limb motor function, activities of daily living, and balance function at T2, T3, and T4 in the study group were obviously higher than those in the reference group ( P < 0.001 ). At 4 and 8 weeks after intervention, the 10 m MWS of the study group was obviously higher than that of the reference group ( P < 0.001 ), while the TUGT was obviously lower ( P < 0.001 ). Respiratory training combined with core muscle training can obviously improve the activities of daily living, cognitive function, and limb motor function of patients with early and midterm stroke, which is worth popularizing and using.

“…The negative effect of HL in the elderly patients is welldocumented, and hearing rehabilitation with CI has been suggested to play a role in limiting the age-related decline in health-related outcome in such patients. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11]16 A recent study has shown significant improvements not only in auditory perception but also cognitive function following hearing rehabilitation with CI. 17 Patients with impaired baseline cognitive function should, however, receive additional cognitive rehabilitation where appropriate to improve long-term outcomes.…”

Objectives: The average life expectancy in the United Kingdom is currently nearly 80 years for a newborn baby with nearly 15% of the population, by 2040, being >75 years old. Hearing impairment is a common disability in the elderly individual, and there have been significant drives to support this population to lead longer and healthier working lives. We aimed to assess the long-term audiological and health-related quality-of-life benefits of cochlear implants (CI) in elderly individuals. Methods: A retrospective and cross-sectional study of patients who received a CI at ≥70 years. Data extracted included speech perception scores, adverse events, telephone use, and patient-reported outcome measures using the Glasgow Benefit Inventory questionnaire with a minimum of 12 months follow-up. Results: Sixty-four patients aged ≥70 years received a unilateral CI. A significant improvement in speech perception scores in all conditions was noted with no significant difference between differing age groups. Glasgow Benefit Inventory scores showed a significant positive impact on patients’ lives and their health status, with no significant difference between the differing age groups. Conclusions: Cochlear implantation is a safe and well-tolerated procedure in the elderly patients with significant improvements observed in audiological performance, health status, and social interactions.

“…For example, correlations between GBI scores and speech perception of monosyllabic words in quiet existed for younger (<55 years) but not older (≥55 years) CI users ( Vermeire et al, 2005 ). Conversely, Sorrentino et al (2020) found the opposite effect, with relationships observed between GBI scores and speech perception ability in quiet for three different test stimuli (i.e., disyllabic words, sentences, and question comprehension) in an older (≥65 years) but not in a younger (≤50 years) group of CI users. Meanwhile, Forli et al (2019) observed no correlations between GBI score and speech perception ability of Italian disyllabic words in quiet or noise, regardless of age group (42–80 years).…”

“…Previous research has often included a variety of combinations of CI users, including unilateral [i.e., one CI with no contralateral amplification], bimodal [i.e., one CI (electric signal) with a contralateral hearing aid (acoustic signal) and/or bilateral [i.e., two CIs (two electric signals)] users, with users experiencing conditions in both quiet and noise. Indeed, Olze et al (2012) evaluated unilateral CI users only, while other works evaluated primarily unilateral CI and bimodal users ( Mosnier et al, 2015 ; Forli et al, 2019 ) or a combination of unilateral CI, bimodal and bilateral users ( Sanchez-Cuadrado et al, 2015 ; Capretta and Moberly, 2016 ; McRackan et al, 2018 ; Hillyer et al, 2019 ; Sorrentino et al, 2020 ). Additionally, some studies do not delineate between bimodal or bilateral CI users ( Vermeire et al, 2005 ; Hirschfelder et al, 2008 ; Sladen et al, 2017 ).…”

PurposePrevious studies examining the relationship between health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and speech perception ability in cochlear implant (CI) users have yielded variable results, due to a range of factors, such as a variety of different HRQoL questionnaires and CI speech testing materials in addition to CI configuration. In order to decrease inherent variability and better understand the relationship between these measures in CI users, we administered a commonly used clinical CI speech testing battery as well as two popular HRQoL questionnaires in bimodal and bilateral CI users.MethodsThe Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI), a modified five-factor version of the GBI (GBI-5F), and the Nijmegen Cochlear Implant Questionnaire (NCIQ) were administered to 25 CI users (17 bimodal and 8 bilateral). Speech perception abilities were measured with the AzBio sentence test in several conditions (e.g., quiet and noise, binaural, and first-ear CI only).ResultsHigher performance scores on the GBI general subscore were related to greater binaural speech perception ability in noise. There were no other relationships between the GBI or NCIQ and speech perception ability under any condition. Scores on many of the GBI-5F factors were substantially skewed and asymmetrical; therefore, correlational analyses could not be applied. Across all participants, binaural speech perception scores were greater than first-ear CI only scores.ConclusionThe GBI general subscore was related to binaural speech perception, which is considered the everyday listening condition of bimodal and bilateral CI users, in noise; while the more CI-specific NCIQ did not relate to speech perception ability in any listening condition. Future research exploring the relationships between the GBI, GBI-5F, and NCIQ considering bimodal and bilateral CI configurations separately is warranted.
