Objective : This case study aimed to explore dysphagia symptoms in post-cardiac transplantation patients and evaluate the effectiveness of dysphagia rehabilitation therapy in an occupational therapy clinic. Methods : A patient with post-cardiac transplant dysphagia underwent videofluoroscopic swallowing studies to assess the Functional Dysphagia Scale (FDS), Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS), and Dysphagia Outcome and Severity Scale (DOSS). Assessments were performed three times at two-week intervals. The treatment, administered from July 19 to August 21, 2023, included eight sessions of 30 minutes each. Treatments included corrective techniques (tongue-hold maneuver, chin tuck against resistance, mendelsohn maneuver, effortful swallowing, and respiratory muscle exercise) and compensatory strategies (chin-tuck position, multiple swallowing, modification of volume, and viscosity), alongside caregiver education. Results : The FDS scores decreased from 50 to 30, PAS scores improved from 5 to 3, and DOSS scores improved from Stage 2 to Stage 4. Conclusion : Dysphagia rehabilitation therapy improved swallowing function in a post-cardiac transplantation patient. However, further studies are required to confirm these findings.

편측무시란 뇌졸중 환자에게서 나타나는 지각 손상의 한 종류로 말초 운동 및 감각 신경의 손상과 상관없이 손상된 대뇌반구 반대변의 공간과 신체의 지각이 감소된 증상이다. 현재 편측무시환자에 대한 치료는 환자가 책상에 앉아 팔과 손가락만으로 치료를 하는 소운동적인 방법으로 한 가지 치료효과만 기대할 수 있고, 환자들 또한 지루함과 피곤함을 쉽게 느끼게 된다. 또한, 서서 활동하기 힘든 편측무시환자들은 적당한 재활/치료방법이 없고, 안전성 측면에서도 여러 가지 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 편측무시환자들이 앉아서 안전하게 재활/치료할 수 있는 재활도구를 개발하고자 한다. 특히, 지루한 재활프로그램에 게임요소들로 동기 및 흥미 유발하여 지속적으로 재활/치료를 하며 압력센서 기반의 시각재활과 신체재활의 복합적인 재활을 연구하고자 한다.

Fingers are body parts with a complex structure and essential functions that are the most prone to trauma. The principle of treatment for finger fractures is to determine the balance between obtaining stable fracture fixation and early joint movement. Despite proper treatment, there are many cases of functional and cosmetic problems caused by stiffness or deformation as complications. This review article introduces the latest knowledge in the treatment of finger fractures focusing on fractures and dislocations around the interphalangeal joints, including joint surface damage, which is difficult to treat and leads to poor results. This article consists of fracture cases and describes the methods and solutions to address these complications.

This study analyzed the effects of an exercise program that combined lumbar stabilization exercise and muscle strengthening exercise and an exercise program that applied only lumbar muscle strengthening exercise on multifidus muscle cross-sectional area, static posture control ability, and low back pain in patients with CLBP. For the study method, 28 patients with CLBP were divided into two exercise propram groups and exercised three times a week for 8-weeks. The data analysis of this study used the t-test to compare before and after group exercise program application, and between each group (p<.05). As a result of the study, significant results were found before and after application of the exercise program within each group, such as multifidus muscle cross-sectional area, static posture control ability, and low back pain (p<.05). Between each group, the exercise program that combined lumbar stabilization exercise and muscle strengthening exercise was found to be more effective (p<.05). In conclusion, it was found that the exercise program with additional lumbar stabilization exercise improved the structure and function of various lumbar vertebrae and reduced lumbar pain.

Purpose: The biomechanics and kinematics of knee joint were reviewed in this article. And then the common sports injuries were presented. Anatomy and Kinetics: None of the pairs of bearing surfaces in the knee joint is exactly congruent This allows the knee six degrees of freedom of motion. Tibiofemoral Kinematics: In flexion and extension, the axis of motion is not perpendicular to the medial-lateral plane of the joint, nor is it perpendicular to the axis of longitudinal rotation. This results in coupled varus angulation and internal rotation with flexion and in valgus angulation and external rotation with extension. Patellofemoral Articulation: Loads across the patellofemoral joint are indirectly related to the angle of knee flexion and directly related to the force generated within the quadriceps mechanism. Fractures of the Patella: Nonoperative treatment is indicated if the extensor mechanism is intact and if displacement of fragment is minimal. The specific type of internal fixation depends on the fracture pattern. It is important to repair retinaculum. Acute and Recurrent Patellar Instability: The degree of dysplasia and the extent of the instability play a large part in determining the success of nonoperative treatment. Patients who experience recurrent dislocations and patients with major anatomic variations require surgery to minimize their instability. Sports Injuries in School-age Atheletes: Patellar pain in young athletes groups a number of conditions, including Idiopathic Adolescent Anterior Knee Pain, Osgood- Schlatter Disease, and Sinding-Larsen-Johansson Disease.

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to determine the effects of therapeutic exercise on range of motion (ROM), the manual muscle test (MMT), functional movement screen (FMS) and radiological evaluation in a youth football player with football-specific anterior pelvic tilt (APT). METHODS: The subject of this case report was a 12-year-old youth football player, who presented with football-specific APT. Therapeutic exercise consisted of hamstring stretch, prone hip extension, abdominal crunch, bridging with isometric hip abduction, plank exercise with posterior tilt and posterior pelvic tilting exercise using a swiss-ball for 40 min/day, twice a week for 8-weeks. ROM, MMT, FMS (deep squat, hurdle step, inline lunge, shoulder mobility, active straight-leg raise, rotary stability and trunk stability push-up) and radiographs (lumbar lordotic and sacral horizontal angle) were analyzed before and after week 8 of therapeutic exercise. RESULTS: The ROM, MMT, and FMS increased and the lumbar lordotic angle and sacral horizontal angle improved after 8-weeks of therapeutic exercise. CONCLUSION: The results of this case report suggest that therapeutic exercise improves ROM, MMT and radiography associated parameters in youth football players with football-specific APT. These findings have clinical implications for therapeutic exercise in youth football players with football-specific APT.
