The effects of vibro-medical insole on Sensation and plantar Pressure distribution in diabetic patients with mild-to-moderate peripheral neuropathy.
Clinical biomechanics (Bristol Avon), 2018Co-Authors: Masumeh Bagherzadeh Cham, M. Bahramizadeh, Mohammad Ali Mohseni-bandpei, Saeed Kalbasi, Akbar BiglarianAbstract:Abstract Background The first aim of this study was to determine the effect of a vibro-medical insole on Pressure Sensation and the second was to measure the effects of a vibro-medical insole with and without random noise on plantar Pressure distribution in diabetic patients with mild-to-moderate peripheral neuropathy. Methods Twenty patients with mild-to-moderate diabetic neuropathy were recruited in the clinical trial pre-test, post-test study. A medical insole was made for each participant and a vibratory system was inserted into it. Pressure Sensation was evaluated before and after the 30-min walk using the vibro-medical insole with added random noise by Semmes-Weinstein Monofilaments. Peak Pressure data was measured before and after 30-min walking with a vibro-medical insole with and without random noise by the Pedar-x system. Findings Pressure Sensations showed improvement after 30-min walking with the vibro-medical insole with added random noise at the heel, metatarsophalangeal heads and hallux of both feet in all participants (p Interpretation Thirty minute walking with a vibro-medical insole seems to improve Pressure Sensation and alter peak Pressure in diabetic patients with mild-to-moderate peripheral neuropathy. This work suggests that vibro-medical insoles can be used for daily living activities and possibly decreases the risk of ulceration in diabetic neuropathy patients.

speech motor control and orofacial point Pressure Sensation in adults with adhd
Neuroscience Letters, 2021Co-Authors: Nicole M Etter, Farlah A Cadely, Madison G Peters, Crystal R Dahm, Kristina A NeelyAbstract:Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a predominant neurobehavioral disorder of childhood with motor and sensory symptoms often persisting into adulthood. Motor control theories highlight the importance of the bidirectional relationship between Sensation and movement for maintaining skilled behaviors like speech. The impact of ADHD on speech in adults has not been well established. The purpose of this study is to assess group differences in quantitative speech and oral somatosensory measures in adults with and without ADHD and to describe the relationship between ADHD symptomology and speech production. A total of 50 adults (18-26 years) were recruited and divided in two groups based on diagnosis: those with (n = 28) and those without (n = 22) ADHD. All participants provided a speech sample to measure articulatory accuracy and speech rate and completed quantitative point-Pressure testing using tactile detection and discrimination on bilateral sites on the lower lip and lateral edge of the tongue tip. Independent t-tests corrected for multiple comparisons identified significant group differences using FDR corrected q values in speech production for correct syllables per second and overall speech rate (q<.05). Additionally, there were significant group differences (q<.05) for detection and discrimination threshold estimates at one testing location. Bivariate correlations identified a relationship between several speech measures and self-reported ADHD symptoms such that as symptom severity increased, speech accuracy for correct syllables per second decreased. Young adults with ADHD have subtle differences in speech production compared to non-ADHD control participants. Speech scientists might consider screening for ADHD when collecting normative data samples.

Reliability and Validity of S3 Pressure Sensation as an Alternative to Deep Anal Pressure in Neurologic Classification of Persons With Spinal Cord Injury
Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 2016Co-Authors: Ralph J. Marino, Mary Schmidt-read, Steven Kirshblum, Trevor A. Dyson-hudson, Keith E. Tansey, Leslie R. Morse, Daniel E. GravesAbstract:Abstract Objective To determine whether Pressure Sensation at the S3 dermatome (a new test) could be used in place of deep anal Pressure (DAP) to determine completeness of injury as part of the International Standards for Neurological Classification of Spinal Cord Injury. Design Prospective, multicenter observational study. Setting U.S. Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems. Participants Persons (N=125) with acute traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI), neurologic levels T12 and above, were serially examined at 1 month (baseline), 3, 6, and 12 months postinjury. There were 80 subjects with tetraplegia and 45 with paraplegia. Interventions S3 Pressure Sensation at all time points, with a retest at the 1-month time point. Main Outcome Measures Test-retest reliability and agreement (κ), sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values. Results Test-retest reliability of S3 Pressure at 1 month was almost perfect (κ=.98). Agreement of S3 Pressure with DAP was substantial both at 1 month (κ=.73) and for all time points combined (κ=.76). The positive predictive value of S3 Pressure for DAP was 89.3% at baseline and 90.3% for all time points. No pattern in outcomes was seen in those cases where S3 Pressure and DAP differed at 1 month. Conclusions S3 Pressure Sensation is reliable and has substantial agreement with DAP in persons with SCI at least 1 month postinjury. We suggest S3 Pressure as an alternative test of sensory sacral sparing for supraconus SCI, at least in cases where DAP cannot be tested. Further research is needed to determine whether S3 Pressure could replace DAP for classification of SCI.

Effect of haptic input on standing balance among individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury.
Neuroscience letters, 2017Co-Authors: Tarun Arora, Kristin E. Musselman, Joel L. Lanovaz, Alison R. OatesAbstract:Abstract The present study investigated the effect of haptic input via light touch on standing balance of individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI). Centre of Pressure (COP) measures during standing were assessed in 16 participants with iSCI (13 males; 61.1 ± 19.9 years; C1-L4; AIS C and D) and 13 able-bodied (AB) participants (10 males; 59.4 ± 19.7 years). The effects of light touch (touch/no touch), vision (eyes open/closed), and group (iSCI/AB) on COP measures were assessed using a two-way mixed design MANOVA. Correlations were examined between changes in COP measures with touch (ΔCOP), and clinical measures of cutaneous Pressure and proprioception in the upper (UE) and lower (LE) extremities in participants with iSCI. Significant main effects for touch ( p 0.001), vision ( p 0.001), and group ( p = 0.01) for all COP measures were found. There was a significant interaction between vision and group ( p = 0.01) for a subset of COP measures. With eyes closed, ΔCOP was positively correlated with UE cutaneous Pressure Sensation and negatively correlated with LE proprioception. Compared with AB adults, individuals with iSCI show a greater increase in postural sway when standing with eyes closed than with eyes open. Individuals with iSCI can use light touch to reduce postural sway, and the effect is greater in those with more intact UE cutaneous Pressure Sensation and more impaired LE proprioception.
