GANGRENE and eyanosis of an extremity, due to thrombophlebitis with massive venous occlusions, is an uncommon condition and is often confused with primary arterial oeclusive disease. With massive venous occlusion and the associated arterial venospasm the blood flow may be so impeded to an extremity that cyanosis and eventually gangrene may occur. The recognition of this is important, since this...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study examined the validity of the clinical tenet that poststroke recovery of the upper extremity is less rapid and complete than poststroke recovery of the lower extremity. Previous studies comparing upper and lower extremity recovery have evaluated disability rather than motor impairment. Individuals with lower extremity impairments may be more functional and appea...
OBJECTIVE As a widely used instrument for patients with extremity sarcoma, the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS) has never been cross-culturally adapted for Chinese population. The objective of our study was to investigate the comprehensibility, reliability and validity of the Chinese version of TESS for use in patients with extremity sarcoma. METHODS A consensus version of the Chinese T...
BACKGROUND Little is known about the influence of habitual participation in physical exercise and diet on upper-extremity physical function in older adults. To assess the relationship of general physical exercise and diet to upper-extremity physical function and pain intensity in older adults. METHODS A cohort of 111 patients 50 or older completed a sociodemographic survey, the Rapid Assessme...
BACKGROUND/AIM Considerable improvement has been made in football field surfaces and types of shoe, yet relatively few epidemiological studies have investigated their roles in the risk of football injuries. This study examined the effects of field surface, surface condition and shoe type on the likelihood of lower extremity football injuries. METHODS Deidentified data from 188 players from on...
OBJECTIVE Our objectives were to 1) estimate the prevalence of diabetes and diabetic lower-extremity ulcers in the Medicare population, 2) characterize Medicare population-specific costs for lower-extremity ulcer episodes, and 3) evaluate potential cost savings associated with better healing of lower-extremity ulcers. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Prevalence and costs of diabetic lower-extremit...
The energy imparted, ε, to a patient undergoing an extremity x-ray examination may be obtained from the dosearea product incident on the patient. Values of energy imparted can be subsequently converted into the corresponding effect ive dose , E, us ing an extremity spec i f i c EIε rat io . In th i s study, an E/ε ratio of 3 mSv/J was used to convert values of energy imparted into the correspon...
OBJECTIVES Little is known about local access-site complications and upper extremity dysfunction after transradial percutaneous coronary procedures (TR-PCP). This systematic review study aimed to summarise the current knowledge on the incidences of access-site complications and upper extremity dysfunction after TR-PCP. METHODS Two independent, trained investigators searched MEDLINE, EMBASE an...
BACKGROUND Physical performance measures can predict incident disability, but little research has assessed and compared how these measures predict progressive and rapid-onset (catastrophic) disability. The authors evaluated the ability of upper and lower extremity performance measures to predict progressive and catastrophic disability in activities of daily living (ADL), mobility, and upper ext...
objectives: this study was designed to determine the effects of volar-dorsal wrist/hand immobilization splint on upper extremity motor components and function of stroke patients. methods: fourteen patients were participated in this study. the patients were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and were given the splint after a primary evaluation. they were re-evaluated after o...
