The review article considers the problem of nonmedical post-stroke rehabilitation, in particular the restoration of fine motor skills in patients in the early period of the disease. A review and analysis of various randomized controlled trials concerning the use of various rehabilitation methods both in monotherapy and in their combined application is carried out, and modern technical devices, with the use of computer technology and biofeedback, are reviewed. Proceeding from the presented literature data and their analysis, there are certain grounds for introducing modern apparatus complexes and robotized devices for fine motor skills restoration in post-stroke patients, especially in the early period, into the multimodal rehabilitation system. However, further research in this direction is needed to achieve a sustained positive result.

Cardiac diseases remain one of the leading causes of death globally, often linked to ischemic conditions that can affect cellular homeostasis and metabolism, which can lead to the development of cardiovascular dysfunction. Considering the effect of ischemic cardiomyopathy on the global population, it is vital to understand the impact of ischemia on cardiac cells and how ischemic conditions change different cellular functions through post-translational modification of cellular proteins. : To understand the cellular function and fine-tuning during stress, we established an ischemia model using neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes.

Background/objectives: Fine motor movements are essential for daily activities, such as handwriting, and rely heavily on visual information to enhance motor complexity and minimize errors. Tracing tasks provide an ecological method for studying these movements and investigating sensorimotor processes. To date, our understanding of the influence of different quantities of visual information on fine motor control remains incomplete.

Developmental coordination disorder (DCD/Dyspraxia) is a commonly misunderstood and under-recognized specific learning difficulty (SpLD) in educational settings. This lifelong condition affects fine and gross motor coordination and significantly interferes with many activities of daily living, academic achievement, and employment opportunities. However, most Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are unaware of its prevalence within their context, even though 5% of the general population have DCD and the enrolment of students in UK Higher Education with a known disability has increased by 42.

Background: Fine motor skill deficits have been reported for children with histories of prenatal alcohol exposure, but little is known whether impaired motor skill extends to the regulation of precision grip control.
Methods: Children with (n = 15) and without (n = 17) histories of heavy prenatal alcohol exposure used their dominant hand to grasp, lift, and hold in space a small-instrumented object with a mass of 19 g. Object mass was also experimentally increased by separately adding two aluminum cubes with mass of 200 and 400 g.

Children born growth-restricted are well recognized to be at an increased risk of poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. This prospective study examined the influence of chest-to-head circumference ratio at birth on neurodevelopment in the first three years among children enrolled in the Japan Environment and Children's Study. We analyzed information of 84,311 children (43,217 boys, 41,094 girls).
