Influencing factors of sedentary behaviour in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a systematic review.

Background: People with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are more likely to adopt a sedentary lifestyle. Increased sedentary behaviour is associated with adverse health consequences and reduced life expectancy.

Aim: This mixed-methods systematic review aimed to report the factors contributing to sedentary behaviour in people with COPD.

Effects and mechanisms of differently cued and non-cued motor imagery in people with multiple sclerosis: A randomised controlled trial.

Background: Walking impairment and fatigue are prevalent symptoms in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). Motor imagery (MI) with rhythmic auditory cueing improved walking in PwMS, but so far, the underlying mechanisms are not fully explored.

Objective: This study investigated the effects and mechanisms of differently cued and non-cued MI on walking, fatigue and quality of life (QoL) in PwMS.

Exploring cued and non-cued motor imagery interventions in people with multiple sclerosis: a randomised feasibility trial and reliability study.

Background: Motor imagery (MI) is increasingly used in neurorehabilitation to facilitate motor performance. Our previous study results demonstrated significantly improved walking after rhythmic-cued MI in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). The present feasibility study was aimed to obtain preliminary information of changes in walking, fatigue, quality of life (QoL) and MI ability following cued and non-cued MI in pwMS.

The effect of rhythmic-cued motor imagery on walking, fatigue and quality of life in people with multiple sclerosis: A randomised controlled trial.

Background: Motor imagery and rhythmic auditory stimulation are physiotherapy strategies for walking rehabilitation.

Objectives: To investigate the effect of motor imagery combined with rhythmic cueing on walking, fatigue and quality of life (QoL) in people with multiple sclerosis (MS).

Methods: Individuals with MS and Expanded Disability Status Scale scores of 1.

Rhythmic cued motor imagery and walking in people with multiple sclerosis: a randomised controlled feasibility study.

Background: Novel physiotherapy approaches such as motor imagery and rhythmic auditory stimulation have been shown to improve walking in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Rhythmic cued motor imagery was used in this study, whose objectives were to evaluate the feasibility of a larger randomised controlled trial (RCT) in people with MS and to obtain information on walking.

Methods: Thirty adult people with MS who scored 1.

Use of the Z osteotomy for Tailor bunionectomy.

The authors present a unique use of the Z osteotomy in the fifth metatarsal for correction of Tailor bunion. The rotational capabilities of the Z osteotomy are exploited to provide correction of fifth metatarsal lateral bowing and to decrease intermetatarsal angles. The osteotomy is inherently stable, and the design facilitates internal fixation.
