Introduction: Post-operative frenectomy care is often focused on active wound management (AWM) and followed by neuromuscular re-education (NMR). The standard practices of AWM are varied amongst providers. AWM is often expected to be performed by care...
Background: Tibial plateau fractures (TPFs) are complex injuries often leading to long-term complications such as knee instability, limited range of motion, and osteoarthritis. Accurate diagnostic evaluations combining subjective and objective assess...
Stroke often causes neuromotor disabilities, impacting index finger function in daily activities. Due to the role of repetitive, even passive, finger movements in neuromuscular re-education and spasticity control, this study aims to design a rehabili...
Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) is a rare, immune-mediated disorder of the spinal cord characterized by sensory, motor, and autonomic dysfunction. Although the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is widely regarded as safe, isolated reports have sugge...
Orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT) is one of the therapeutic methods for neuromuscular re-education and has been considered as one of the auxiliary methods for obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and orthodontic treatment. There is a...
Neuromuscular re-education through therapeutic exercise has a determinant role in chronic shoulder pain rehabilitation. Smartphones are an interesting strategy to extend the rehabilitation to a home-based scenario as it can increase the attraction an...
Background: Chronic ankle instability (CAI) post-sprain leads to persistent functional deficits. This study evaluated CAI’s specific impact on ankle dorsiflexion, heel lift function, stability, broader functional impairments, and quality of lif...
Background: Stroke is a major contributor to disability and mortality globally. It leads to physical impairments, including weakness and cardiovascular deconditioning, posing significant challenges to stroke survivors’ quality of life. Exercise...
Purpose: The popliteus tendon (PT), though often overlooked, plays a vital role in the functional and mechanical stability of the posterolateral corner (PLC) of the knee. This narrative review consolidates the current anatomical, biomechanical, imagi...
The clinical effects of a serious game with electromyography feedback (EMGs_SG) and physical therapy (PT) was investigated prospectively in children with unilateral spastic cerebral palsy (USCP). An additional aim was to better understand the influen...
