Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated how neuromuscular and proprioceptive training (NPT) affects knee health and overall wellness in active seniors, finding positive results.
- - Participants who engaged in 10 weeks of NPT showed significant improvements in mental health, reduced stress levels, and better sleep quality compared to a control group that received no intervention.
- - Results also indicated enhanced knee force and improvements in visual-motor skills and force steadiness specifically in the group that did the NPT, highlighting the program's effectiveness in promoting musculoskeletal health and well-being.
Objective: This pilot study aimed to assess the efficacy of a 16-week at-home high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program among individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
Methods: Eight individuals (age: 47±11 (SD) years, 3 females) with SCI below the sixth thoracic vertebrae participated in a 16-week at-home HIIT program using an arm ergometer. Participants completed baseline graded exercise tests to determine target heart rate zones.
Background: Serious bacterial infection rates in febrile infants < 60 days are about 8-11%. Less than 1% of febrile infants with no respiratory symptoms will have pneumonia however, chest radiography (CXR) rates remain between 30 and 60%. Rapid Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) and influenza (flu) testing is common, however, there is not enough data to determine if febrile infants without any respiratory symptoms should be tested.
