Supervised—not voluntary—upper limb exercise enhances vestibular function in Parkinson’s disease

Federica Ginanneschi, David Cioncoloni, Carla Battisti, Federica Dominici et autres

Background Gait dysfunction has emerged as the greatest challenge in Parkinson disease (PD) management. Decreased vestibular efficacy may contribute to imbalance in PD. The present study aims to explore whether an upper limb aerobic exercise, performed using a device that primarily targets …

Study of total duration of distal compound muscle action potential in demyelinating and axonal Guillain-Barre’ syndrome

Federica Ginanneschi, David Cioncoloni, Giorgio Capoccitti, Nila Volpi et autres

OBJECTIVES: Electrophysiology plays a crucial role in Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) diagnosis and subtype classification. The aim of our study was to assess the potential role of distal compound muscle action potential (dCMAP) for early differentiation between acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) and …

Clinical Features and Outcome of the Guillain–Barre Syndrome: A Single-Center 11-Year Experience

Federica Ginanneschi, Fabio Giannini, Francesco Sicurelli, Carla Battisti et autres

Background: Clinical presentation, electrophysiological subtype, and outcome of the Guillain-Barre' Syndrome (GBS) may differ between patients from different geographical regions. This study aims to assess clinical-neurophysiological features of an adult, Italian GBS cohort over 11 years. Methods: Retrospective (from 1 January 2011 …

Reference values for distal motor conduction of the tibial nerve: Effects of demographic and anthropometric measures

Federica Ginanneschi, Stefania Curti, Francesco Marinelli, Alessandro Aretini NFT et autres

INTRODUCTION: In this study we collected reference values for the across-tarsal-tunnel conduction of the motor tibial nerve (mTN). METHODS: The mTN compound muscle action potentials (CMAPs) from the abductor hallucis muscle were obtained by stimulating below/above the malleolus and the popliteal fossa. …

Effects of elastic stockings on peripheral and central nervous system

Stefano Mancini, Fabrizio Mariani, Alessandro Rossi, David Cioncoloni et autres

BACKGROUND: Prospective study to investigate the effects of elastic stockings (GCS) 23-32 mmHg at ankle on Hoffmann reflex (H-reflex) from soleus muscle under rest and after a walking program. METHODS: Fourteen subjects wore two types of GCS, at different times. Electrophysiological examinations …

Functional and Brain Activation Changes Following Specialized Upper-Limb Exercise in Parkinson’s Disease

Luca Valerio Messa, Federica Ginanneschi, Davide Momi, Lucia Monti et autres

For the management of Parkinson’s disease (PD) the concept of forced exercise (FE) has drawn interest. In PD subjects, the FE executed with lower limbs has been shown to lessen symptoms and to promote brain adaptive changes. Our study is aimed to …

Impaired scaling of preparatory postural responses to repeated balance perturbations in Parkinsonian patients with comorbid white matter disease

David Cioncoloni, Lodovica Martelli, Deborah Rosignoli, Riccardo Mazzocchio

BACKGROUND: Postural instability may result from altered sequencing of automatic motor programs for anticipatory postural corrections and/or impaired motor learning in Parkinson Disease (PD) patients. Comorbid white matter disease is a major determinant of axial motor impairment, leading to poorer stability than …

Effects of rehabilitation treatment of the upper limb in multiple sclerosis patients and predictive value of neurophysiological measures.

Viviana Nociti, Luca Prosperini, Monica Ulivelli, Francesco Antonio Losavio et autres

BACKGROUND: Dysfunctions of the upper limbs occur in the 66% of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. To date, no data, about the persistence of the effects of a rehabilitation treatment and no prognostic markers of functional improvement, have been established. AIM: The aim …
