No zoba pulpas cilmes šūnas izolētas eksosoma ievadītas intranazāli protektē dopamīnerģiskos neironus 6-OHDA izraisītā Pārkinsona slimības modelī žur…
2018
Pārkinsona slimība (PS) ir viena no visbiežāk sastopamajām neirodeģeneratīvajām saslimšanām, kurai joprojām nav atrasta efektīva medikamentoza terapija. Slimnieku skaits ar katru gadu pieaug, jo aizvien ir apgrūtināta savlaicīga slimības diagnosticēšana un ārstēšana. Pirmos PS simptomus novēro, kad lielākajā smadzeņu daļā jau ir notikusi dopamīnerģisko neironu atrofija. Darba mērķis bija noskaidrot eksosomu protekciju uz dopamīnerģiskajiem neironiem un to ietekmi uz motorajiem traucējumiem un salīdzināt kā no zoba pulpas cilmes šūnā iegūtas eksosomas spēj protektēt neirotoksīna 6-OHDA izraisītus bojājumus žurku smadzenēs. noskaidrot vai intranazāli ievadītas eksosomas, izolētas no zoba pulp…
Longitudinal Gait Analysis of a Transfemoral Amputee Patient: Single-Case Report from Socket-Type to Osseointegrated Prosthesis
2023
The aim of the present case report was to provide a longitudinal functional assessment of a patient with transfemoral amputation from the preoperative status with socket-type prosthesis to one year after the osseointegration surgery. A 44 years-old male patient was scheduled for osseointegration surgery 17 years after transfemoral amputation. Gait analysis was performed through 15 wearable inertial sensors (MTw Awinda, Xsens) before surgery (patient wearing his standard socket-type prosthesis) and at 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-ups after osseointegration. ANOVA in Statistical Parametric Mapping was used to assess the changes in amputee and sound limb hip and pelvis kinematics. The gait symm…
Assessment of the Kinematic Adaptations in Parkinson’s Disease Using the Gait Profile Score: Influences of Trunk Posture, a Pilot Study
2021
Introduction: Postural abnormalities are common in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and lead to gait abnormalities. Relationships between changes in the trunk posture of PD patients and gait profile score (GPS) and gait spatiotemporal parameters are poorly investigated. The aim of the current study was to investigate the relationships between trunk posture, GPS, and gait spatiotemporal parameters, in patients with PD. Materials and Methods: Twenty-three people with PD and nineteen age-matched healthy people participated in this study. A 3D gait kinematical analysis was applied to all participants using the Plug-In Gait Full BodyTM tool. Trunk and limb kinematics patterns and gait spat…

Recovery of mobility function and life-space mobility after ischemic stroke: the MOBITEC-Stroke study protocol
2020
Abstract Background Stroke is a major cause of disability and stroke incidence increases with age. Stroke frequently results in permanent limitations of mobility, and, consequently, the need for the help of others in activities of daily living. In order to optimize rehabilitative efforts and their functional outcomes, detailed knowledge of the functional recovery process, regarding mobility, is needed. Objectives of the MOBITEC-Stroke study are: 1.) To characterize mobility, including lower extremity physical function (LEPF) and life space (the geospatial extent of all of a person’s movements), and changes in mobility within the first year after stroke. 2.) To identify and characterize subg…
Foot loading in normal and pathological walking
2002
Perusteellinen kävely- ja kuormitusanalyysi on usein tarpeellinen jalkaongelmissa, jotta mahdollinen tukien ja ortoosien valinta sekä alaraajoihin kohdistuvien leikkausten jälkeinen kuntoutus pystytään suorittamaan parhaalla mahdollisella tavalla, toteaa Jarmo Perttunen väitöstutkimuksessaan. Kävelijä tuottaa tukivaiheen aikana alustaan voimia pysty- ja vaakasuunnassa, joita on perinteisesti mitattu voimalevyantureilla. Ne eivät pysty yksistään erottelemaan kuormitusta jalkapohjan eri osien välillä riittävän täsmällisesti. Kiinnostus selvittää kuormitus tarkasti on johtanut kehityksen alkeellisista jalkapohjan mustekuvista hyvin pieniin kengän sisälle asetettaviin mittausantureihin. Perttus…
