  3. 7. Physical performance, pain and pool exercise in individuals with late effects of polio

    Författare :Carin Willén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Post-polio syndrome; pain; muscle strength; walking capacity; dynamic exercise in water;

    Sammanfattning : The overall purpose of the studies was to obtain knowledge about physical performance and related factors in individuals with late effects of polio. The specific aims were to provide a description of pain and how it is related to the effects of polio and the physical activity of the individual; to evaluate physical performance, the effect of reduced muscle strength on walking performance, and to study the impact of pool exercise.

    Sammanfattning : Neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases are conditions affecting the central nervous system that in the end have dramatic impacts on the affected individuals and their families. Today, large efforts are made to understand the disease origin and progression. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Characterization and modulation of immunoregulatory molecules in neuroinflammation

    Författare :Mohsen Khademi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Several lines of evidence suggest that MS is an immune-mediated disorder characterized by active and inactive phases, where changes in disease activity are reflected by changes in the expression patterns of immunoregulatory molecules.

  7. 10. Comprehensive evaluation of spasticity and other sensorimotor dysfunctions after lesions to the central or peripheral nervous system

    Författare :Gaia Valentina Pennati; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Understanding how sensorimotor impairments may contribute to changes in body structure and function, and also to activity and participation limitations is an important challenge in neurorehabilitation research, of high clinical relevance. Available assessment methods include mainly clinical scales, often with inadequate psychometric properties, such as the Modified Ashworth scale for assessment of spasticity. LÄS MER
