Abstract

Background: The integration of sustainable mobility within rehabilitation settings combines environmental and health-focused strategies to reduce the carbon footprint of healthcare and improve patient results. This approach addresses the need for environmentally friendly transport options, such as walking, cycling, public transport, and carpooling, within rehabilitation programs. Aim(s) (including purpose setting): This study aimed to explore the influence of demographic factors - age, gender, and mobility restrictions on patients' willingness to adopt sustainable mobility options during rehabilitation. Material and methods: A cross-sectional survey design was used, involving 85 participants undergoing rehabilitation. Data were collected using a structured electronic questionnaire, with demographic data and attitudes toward different sustainable transport methods. Statistical analyses included Chi-Square tests, ANOVA, Tukey’s HSD, t-tests, and Mann-Whitney U tests to identify significant demographic influences on mobility preferences. Result: Younger participants (aged 18-30) and female participants demonstrated a higher willingness to use public transport compared to older age groups and male participants (ANOVA p = 0.008). Participants with mobility restrictions were less inclined toward active transport options, highlighting the need for customized support and accessible infrastructure. Conclusions: Demographic factors significantly affect sustainable mobility preferences in rehabilitation, necessitating customized interventions to improve adoption. Programs should consider age, gender and mobility limitations to effectively promote sustainable transport. Addressing these factors can improve rehabilitation results and support broader environmental sustainability goals. Future research should investigate long-term impacts and the role of additional variables, such as socioeconomic status and infrastructure, in shaping mobility preferences.

Abstract

Background: Portability and access to the internet are now the norm for everyone from school children to corporate business individuals allowing the playing of online games like Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) and other gaming. As for e-sports, there are some cognitive gains while game addiction especially among young people is on the rise. Excessive playing of games can cause musculoskeletal problems like strained neck muscles, and illnesses such as carpal tunnel syndrome, and de Quervain’s tenosynovitis. Aim(s): This cross-sectional study sought to estimate the percentage prevalence of CTS and DQT in PUBG players and their addiction level to gaming. Material and methods: The sample comprised 382 students with demographic data obtained using questionnaires completed independently by the participants. Gaming addiction was measured with a 21-item addiction scale while CTS was measured with the Boston Carpal Tunnel questionnaire; and DQT with the Finkelstein test. Result: Thus, 42.1% of PUBG players were identified as players with GA. The calculated frequency for de Quervain’s tenosynovitis was 52.9% the mean symptom severity of patients was 17.53±6.00 and the functional status of patients was 11.19±4.41 showing mild pain and limitation to the function. However, the level of carpal tunnel syndrome was relatively low in the participants of the present study. Conclusions: In this PUBG participants’ study, 52.9% had de Quervain’s tenosynovitis, largely with mild to moderate pain. However carpal tunnel syndrome was comparatively low in this instance. These findings indicate that musculoskeletal health is adversely affected by gaming and mostly the upper extremities are affected.

Abstract

Background: Post-stroke pain (PSP) and musculoskeletal complications significantly hinder recovery and quality of life in stroke survivors. Prolotherapy, a regenerative injection therapy, has shown promise in managing musculoskeletal disorders but remains underexplored for PSP. Aim(s): This study evaluates the effectiveness of prolotherapy in reducing pain, improving range of motion (ROM), and enhancing functional outcomes in PSP patients. Material and methods: This pilot study employed a pre-experimental design with pretest and posttest measurements. Conducted at RSUD Dr. Saiful Anwar Malang, the study included three stroke patients experiencing chronic musculoskeletal pain. Prolotherapy injections containing hypertonic dextrose were administered at regular intervals. Primary outcomes included pain (Numerical Rating Scale), ROM, and spasticity (Modified Ashworth Scale). Secondary outcomes were assessed using the Barthel Index, Short Form-36, and Fugl-Meyer Assessment. Statistical analyses were descriptive, with paired t-tests applied to outcome changes. Result: Significant improvements in pain levels (mean NRS reduction from 5.67±1.5 to 3.0±2.0) and ROM, particularly in shoulder flexion and wrist extension, were observed. Spasticity showed minor improvements in some muscle groups. Functional outcomes, including Barthel Index and SF-36 scores, demonstrated positive trends, with two participants improving from severe dependency to moderate independence. Conclusions: Prolotherapy shows promise as an adjunctive intervention for PSP, offering potential benefits in pain reduction and functional recovery. As the first study of its kind at RSUD Dr. Saiful Anwar Malang, it lays the groundwork for future large-scale research to validate these findings and refine clinical applications. Keywords: Stroke, Prolotherapy, Pain, Rehabilitation, post-stroke pain, functional performance

Abstract

Background: Down syndrome (DS) is a congenital disorder with multiple chromosomal disorders. That causes growth disorders and changes the structure of the brain, like physical growth retardation, inability to learn, and other ailments of the cardiovascular system, thyroid glands, and blood cancer. The brain diminishes in size and maturation problems, and pathophysiological processes cause delayed motor development. Disorders often found in children with DS include hypotonia, ligamentous laxity, decreased muscle strength, postural control, proprioception, and cognitive disorders. Strengthening exercises in Down Syndrome children is thought to improve their motor and balance skills. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of periodic sit-to-stand strengthening exercises on Down Syndrome.Material and Methods: Children aged 7-12 years with Down Syndrome from Perhimpunan Orang Tua Anak Down Syndrome (POTADS) in Bandung participated in a seven-week sit-to-stand exercise intervention using a quasi-experimental design with a Pretest-Posttest Group approach (n=16). The initial load was 30% of body weight at 1 RM, progressively increasing to 70% by the seventh week, with adjustments based on re-measurements at week four. The intervention incorporated unloading and overloading phases and was performed thrice weekly at participants' homes. GMFM dimensions D and E and PBS were used to assess outcomes.Result: The result showed an increase in the D and E dimensions from the GMFM and PBS scores.Conclusion: Standing, walking, running, jumping motor, and balance skills in children with DS administered sit-to-stand exercise intervention with increased periodization.
