Effects of Electrical Stimulation on Activation of Mirror Neuron Network in Healthy Adults during Motor Execution and Imitation: An fNIRS Study.
J Integr Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Physical Therapy, Hangzhou Geriatric Hospital, 310022 Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.
Background: Observation, execution, and imitation of target actions based on mirror neuron network (MNN) have become common physiotherapy strategies. Electrical stimulation (ES) is a common intervention to improve muscle strength and motor control in rehabilitation treatments. It is possible to enhance MNN's activation by combining motor execution (ME) and motor imitation (MI) with ES simultaneously.

Institut Robert Merle d'Aubigné, Valenton, France.
Background: Mirror therapy shows promise in the treatment of phantom limb pain but lacks robust evidence.
Objectives: To address this gap, we conducted a scoping review aiming to comprehensively explore the landscape of mirror therapy practice, gather details about the session content, and offer recommendations for future research.
Method: We searched seven databases for published work from 1995 to May 2023.
Effects of mirror therapy on motor and functional recovery of the upper extremity in subacute stroke: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
PM R
January 2025
Department of Physical Therapy and Assistive Technology, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Taipei, Taiwan.
Objective: To review and synthesize existing evidence on the effect of mirror therapy (MT) on motor and functional recovery and the effect of unimanual and bimanual MT in individuals with subacute stroke.
Methodology: PubMed, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, Cochrane, and Airiti Library were searched for relevant studies. Randomized and pilot randomized controlled trials comparing MT with sham MT or conventional therapy were included.
Salivary Glands: Function, Dysfunction, Regeneration, and Repair.
Discov Med
January 2025
Department of Stomatology, Faculty of Dentistry, University of Murcia, 30008 Murcia, Spain.
Salivary gland dysfunctions are common conditions variously related to aging, inflammatory players, and any other factor able to alter their normal physiology. These conditions may significantly impact oral and systemic health, affecting the overall quality of life. Over time, numerous therapeutic strategies have been explored to regenerate, repair, or replace injured salivary glands, focusing on those molecular and cellular mechanisms able to be safely translated into a clinical landscape.

Cureus
December 2024
Neurosurgery, Fluminense Federal University, Niterói, BRA.
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a chronic pain condition characterized by significant sensory, motor, and autonomic dysfunction, often following trauma or nerve injury. Historically known as causalgia and reflex sympathetic dystrophy, CRPS manifests as severe, disproportionate pain, often accompanied by hyperalgesia, allodynia, trophic changes, and motor impairments. Classified into type I (without nerve injury) and type II (associated with nerve damage), CRPS exhibits a complex pathophysiology involving peripheral and central sensitization, neurogenic inflammation, maladaptive brain plasticity, and potential autoimmune and psychological influences.
