: The first stage of childhood is characterized by great neuronal plasticity. In Unilateral Cerebral Palsy (UCP), it is essential to carry out early treatment, with family involvement. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of Early Infant Hybrid Therapy (eI-Hybrid) applied at home with family involvement in children with UCP aged 9-18 months, and to assess its preliminary effectiveness on bimanual functional performance.

Methods: The RESMES was cross-culturally adaptated and validated in the Spanish language (RESMES-sp). This study was divided into two well-differentiated phases: 1) a cross-cultural translation and adaptation; 2) psychometric characteristics analysis of the RESMES-sp (reliability, test-retest, construct validity, criteria validity, error measurements).

Int J Environ Res Public Health
January 2023
Article Synopsis
- Blood flow restriction (BFR) is a low-load exercise method that involves using cuffs to reduce blood flow, allowing similar benefits to high-load training while exerting less effort.
- The systematic review aimed to assess the impact of BFR on pain, functionality, and quality of life for individuals with neuromusculoskeletal issues, reviewing data from various medical databases.
- Findings suggested that BFR is an effective therapeutic approach, showing improvements in pain and functionality within six weeks, but its long-term effectiveness remains uncertain.
Developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is a developmental disorder in which numerous comorbidities seem to coexist, such as motor and visual impairment and some executive functions; Methods: A narrative review on motor and visual deficits in children with DCD was carried out; Results and Discussion: Fine and gross motor skills are affected in children with DCD. In addition, they seem to be related to visual deficits, such as difficulty in visual perception, sensory processing and visual memory. Limitations have also been found in accommodation.
