“…By interviewing the therapists and reviewing their treatment records, we had a clear picture of selection and combination in treatment approaches that were used. And the study concluded that a different combination of treatment approaches may generate a different degree of functional outcome in stroke rehabilitation but the difference was not significant [6].…”

“…When no single approach is better than others, therapists move one step forward from individual treatment approach to mixture of approach in treating stroke patient [4,5]. In fact, most therapists already provide mixture of approaches during the rehabilitation process for each individual patient [6,7] but one may suppose that a different combination of treatment approaches will not generate significant differences in functional outcome. My retrospective study investigated the functional outcomes of different combination of physiotherapy treatment approaches for stroke patients [6].…”

“…I found that different therapists have different preferences in choosing treatment approaches [6]. And it is difficult to clearly define which approach a therapist is using to treat a stroke patient because it is not sure the therapist is applying the interventions or just the concepts of an approach.…”

“…Los enfoques neuromusculares [Rood, Bobath, Brunnstrom y la Facilitación Neuromuscular Propioceptiva (FNP)] 21,22 se basan en la estimulación sensorial, la utilización de diversas posturas que facilitan el movimiento, el posicionamiento para inhibir los patrones anormales y la repetición para mejorar el aprendizaje motor 23,24 . Estos enfoques de tratamiento se basan en mecanismos neurofisiológicos que implican la facilitación, inhibición y activación, los cuales aumentan o disminuyen la actividad neuronal para promover o retrasar una respuesta muscular por estimulación de los mecanorreceptores musculares, cutáneos y mecanismos supraespinales 24,25 .…”

RESUMENIntroducción: En la enfermedad cerebro vascular uno de los principales problemas es la espasticidad, que compromete el control postural, la funcionalidad y la calidad de vida. Para lograr la mayor recuperación funcional, se han utilizado los enfoques neuromusculares del ejercicio terapéutico (Ej: Rood, Bobath, Brunnstrom y la Facilitación Neuromuscular Propioceptiva), sin embargo, existe controversia sobre la eficacia de estas intervenciones. Objetivo: Realizar un análisis crítico de la evidencia científica disponible sobre el efecto de los enfoques tradicionales en la espasticidad de los miembros inferiores en personas post-Enfermedad Cerebro Vascular. Métodos: Se incluyeron ensayos clínicos controlados de las bases de datos PUBMED, MEDLINE, PEDro, CINAHL, SCIENCEDIRECT y SCOPUS. La calidad metodológica de los artículos incluidos se evaluó por medio de la escala PeDro. Resultados: Once estudios cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión, obteniendo una calidad metodológica de intermedia a alta. Entre las limitaciones de los estudios revisados se destacan principalmente la ausencia del cálculo del tamaño de muestra, de enmascaramiento de los evaluadores, pérdida de participantes, muestras heterogéneas, carencia de protocolos estandarizados y diversidad de variables evaluadas. Conclusión: El tratamiento fisioterapéutico para disminuir la espasticidad puede ser efectivo aplicado entre tres y cinco días por semana, durante 40 minutos. Sin embargo, estos resultados están soportados en estudios con limitaciones metodológicas y dificultades en su comparación. Por ello, se requieren nuevos estudios para evaluar la eficacia de dichos enfoques, con el fin implementar intervenciones fisioterapéuticas basadas en la mejor evidencia, que contribuyan en una mejor calidad de vida de esta población.Palabras clave: Terapia por ejercicio, accidente cerebrovascular, espasticidad muscular, fisioterapia, rehabilitación. ABSTRACT Introduction: Spasticity due to a stroke is one of the major changes that leads to sensorimotor deficits, causing postural control and functional capability deficits. In order to achieve the best possible functional recovery, several neuromuscular therapeutic exercise approaches have been employed (eg Rood, Bobath, Brunnstrom and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation), but still there are many doubts about the effectiveness of these interventions. Purpose:To perform a critical analysis of the available scientific evidence on the effect of the traditional approaches in spasticity recovery of the lower limbs in post-stroke individuals. Methods: Randomized controlled Trials available in PubMed, MEDLINE, PEDro, CINAHL, and Scopus data SCIENCEDIRECT bases were included in this study. The methodological quality of included articles was evaluated by the PEDro scale. Results: Eleven studies were included, obtaining a methodological quality of intermediate to high. The main observed limitations of the analyzed studies were: the absence of sample size estimation, the lack of blind evaluators, loss of partici...

To explore the relationship between depression symptoms, frailty, and walking ability in Chinese elderly people, and to provide new evidence for research on the prevention and treatment of depression in Chinese elderly people. The data of this study is sourced from the 2018 CHARLS data (China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study). Z-test, logistic regression, and linear stratified regression were used to analyze the walking ability, frailty, and depressive symptoms of 2927 participants. Good walking ability and non frailty were significantly negatively correlated with depression symptoms in the elderly (P < .05). This important negative association persists even after adjusting for demographic, health condition, and lifestyle factors. (P < .05). Elderly women are at a higher risk of developing depression than men, while elderly people with good walking ability and no frailty are at a lower risk of developing depression. At the same time, elderly people with disabilities, hypertension, arthritis, and low levels of physical activity are more likely to experience depressive symptoms. It is recommended that elderly people pay attention to maintaining walking ability and avoiding frailty to reduce the risk of depression.
