Social Support and Quality of Life in Hemodialysis Patients: A Comparative Study with Healthy Controls.

: Hemodialysis patients face significant physical and psychological challenges, including diminished quality of life and reduced social support. This study aimed to assess the levels of social support and quality of life in hemodialysis patients and identify the sociodemographic and dialysis-related factors influencing these outcomes. : This study included 115 hemodialysis patients and 107 healthy controls.

Evaluation of the repeatability of kinesiological measurements of spontaneous infant movements using OSESEC computer analysis algorithms.

: There is a need to create objective and reproducible tool for assessing the quality of infant movements. It's substantially important to detect movement disorders in infants as early as possible. The study aimed to evaluate the reproducibility of kinesiological measurements of spontaneous movements performed by 51 infants (aged 6 to 15 weeks) recorded three times for two consecutive days using OSESEC computer analysis algorithms by determining numerical values of parameters, i.

Towards novel classification of infants' movement patterns supported by computerized video analysis.

Background: Positional preferences, asymmetry of body position and movements potentially indicate abnormal clinical conditions in infants. However, a lack of standardized nomenclature hinders accurate assessment and documentation of these preferences over time. Video tools offer a safe and reproducible method to analyze and describe infant movement patterns, aiding in physiotherapy management and goal planning.
