  1. 21. Analysis of neuropathic pain after spinal cord injury

    Författare :Lars Werhagen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Spinal cord injury; spina bifida; central cord syndrome; neuropathic pain; neuralgia;

    Sammanfattning : Longstanding neuropathic pain is a challenge in spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation. Once established it is difficult to treat successfully. Neuropathic pain has a negative influence on quality of life and on the outcome of rehabilitation. The prevalence of neuropathic pain after SCI varies in different studies. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Stroke recovery activity-dependent mechanisms

    Författare :Miriana Quattromani; Neurokirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :Stroke recovery; Photothrombosis; Enriched environment; Bioluminescence imaging; Toll-like receptor 2; Microglia; Neurons; Extracellular matrix; Perineuronal nets; Aggrecan; Proteases; Parvalbumin; Resting-state functional connectivity;

    Sammanfattning : Stroke is the leading cause of disability in developed countries and among the major causes of death worldwide. During a stroke, neurons deprived of their normal metabolic substrates cease to function in seconds and show signs of structural damage after only a few minutes which result in the impairment of sensory and motor function.

  4. 23. Removing the barriers of plasticity after experimental brain injury

    Författare :Jakob Hakon Christensen; Neurokirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Resting-state functional connectivity; Optical imaging; Stroke; Recovery; Enriched environment; Parvalbumin; Perineuronal nets; Traumatic brain injury; Microglia.;

    Sammanfattning : Ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are leading causes of disability and death worldwide. Both injuries result in regional cell death and disruption of local and remote functional neuronal networks, leading to loss of neurological function. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Measuring the impact of body functions on occupational performance : validation of the ADL-focused occupation-based neurobehavioral evaluation (A-ONE)

    Författare :Guðrún Árnadóttir; Anne Fisher; Britta Löfgren; Erik Bautz-Holter; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; occupational therapy; Rasch measurement; activities of daily living; assessment; stroke; dementia; neurology; outcome; Occupational therapy; Arbetsterapi; arbetsterapi; Occupational therapy;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Among the instruments commonly used by occupational therapists working in the area of rehabilitation of persons with neurological disorders are evaluations of both occupation, such as activities of daily living (ADL), and body functions. While persons with neurological diagnoses typically have symptoms that represent diminished neurobehavioral functions, the resulting pattern of neurobehavioral impairments affecting ADL performance often differs among diagnostic groups.

  7. 25. On quantification of gait

    Författare :Bengt Sandlund; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : There are many diseases and especially so orthopaedic and neurological ones that have an obvious influence on the gait. In spite af that, there have been comparatively few attempts ta quantify gait disorders except within the orthopaedic discipline. LÄS MER
