Spasticity is defined as a motor disorder characterized by a velocity-dependent increase in muscle tone associated with an increase in deep tendon reflexes, which occurs in the context of an upper motor neuron syndrome ( see Table 1) ( 1 ). In patients suffering from multiple sclerosis (MS),...
Spasticity is defined as ‘a disorder of sensorimotor control, resulting from an upper motor neuron (UMN) lesion, presenting as intermittent or sustained involuntary activation of muscles’ [1]. It is characterised by increased involuntary velocity-dependent tonic stretch reflexes (muscle tone) with ...
As it is a maladaptive complex motor response to a lesion of the central nerve system, it is not a simple issue to understand the output. Because spasticity is defined as the velocity-dependent resistance of the joint against passive motion, isokinetic studies have been used during assessment [...
It has been used for both adults and children with various diagnoses, but has been most widely and successfully employed for selected children with spastic cerebral palsy.Spasticity is defined as a velocity-dependent resistance to stretch with a "clasp-knife" quality that is associated with ...
In its own right, spasticity is a chronic condition defined as “disordered sensory-motor control, resulting from an upper motor neuron lesion, presenting as intermittent or sustained involuntary activation of muscles” with postural limb changes. (10) ...
Spasticity was defined as a Tardieu score of 1-3. Patients were excluded ... S Bieringer,C Krewer,F Müller,... - 《Brain Stimulation》 被引量: 6发表: 2008年 Botulinum toxin type A injection combined with self-training proposed by occupational therapists for spastic upper limb hemiparesis ...
it is also possible that abnormal CR activity after SCI may be associated with recovery of motor or locomotor function after injury.58–60 The relationship between the grade of abnormal CR activity as a factor that either promotes or impedes residual motor function during SCI rehabilitation needs ...
Of these three components of the upper motor neuron syndrome, only spasticity is amenable to treatment, hence, the interest in this symptom. Evaluation of spasticity must therefore consider the patient as a whole. The patient presents a disorder of somatic motility that must be described precisely...
the Tribunal concludes that the MFN provision of the Bulgaria-Cyprus BIT cannot be interpreted as providing consent to submit a dispute under the Bulgaria-Cyprus BIT to ICSID arbitration and that the Claimant cannot rely on dispute settlement provisions in other BITs to which Bulgaria is 227. 为...
A clinically important difference was defined as a reduction of greater than or equal to 1 in the MAS score. Friedman test revealed that PT is efficient for significantly reducing the upper limb spasticity of patients only when it is associated with rTMS. In the experimental group, 90 % of ...
