• Within-subject correlations between evening-related changes in body temperature and melatonin in the spinal cord injured.

• Jones H1, Eijsvogels TM, Nyakayiru J, Verheggen RJ, Thompson A, Groothuis JT, Atkinson G, Hopman MT, Thijssen DH.Author information 1Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Science, Liverpool John Moores University , Liverpool , UK .AbstractBackground: Individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI) demonstrate altered circadian variation in thermoregulatory control. Recently, we reported that tetraplegia is associated with a blunted release of melatonin in the evening. In order to examine whether this finding relates to circadian thermoregulation, we compared the correlations between evening changes in melatonin, core and skin temperature between thoracic and cervical SCI and able-bodied participants. Methods: In 10 able-bodied, 9 paraplegic and 8 tetraplegic participants, we measured, between 1900 and 2300 h, core temperature, proximal skin temperature (above and below the level of the lesion) and physical activity. Salivary melatonin was also sampled during this period and analyzed using enzyme linked immunosorbant assay. Results: Between 1900 and 2300 h, core and upper limb skin temperature gradually decreased in all groups (p = 0.01). A significant group × time interaction was evident in lower body skin temperature (p = 0.03). Lower body skin temperature was significantly higher in able-bodied controls compared with tetraplegics between 1900 and 2000 h (p < 0.05). In able-bodied and paraplegic participants, the changes in melatonin and core temperature were inversely correlated (r = -0.44 and -0.54, respectively, both p = 0.01). Melatonin and mean skin temperature changes were also inversely correlated (able-bodied controls: r = -0.24; p = 0.05 and paraplegics: r = -0.30; p= 0.02). Conclusion: The inverse correlation between evening changes in melatonin and thermoregulation is of a similar magnitude in paraplegic and able-bodied controls. In contrast, changes in skin temperature, below the level of the lesion, are unrelated to changes in melatonin in tetraplegics.

• The Capacity to Restore Steady Gait After a Step Modification Is Reduced in People With Poststroke Drop Foot Using an Ankle-Foot Orthosis.

• van Swigchem R1, Roerdink M, Weerdesteyn V, Geurts AC, Daffertshofer A.Author information 1R. van Swigchem, PT, PhD, Department of Rehabilitation (Internal Post Code 898), Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre, Nijmegen Centre for Evidence Based Practice, PO Box 9101, 6500 HB Nijmegen, the Netherlands.AbstractBACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVEA reduced capacity to modify gait to the environment may contribute to the fall risk in persons with post-stroke drop foot using an ankle foot orthosis. This study aimed to quantify their capacity to restore steady gait after a step modification.DESIGNThis was a cross-sectional, observational study.METHODSNineteen persons in the chronic phase (>6 months) after stroke (aged 55.0±10.1 years) and 20 persons of similar age (54.6±12.0 years) who were able-bodied were included. Participants were instructed to avoid obstacles that were suddenly released in front of the paretic (stroke group) or left leg (control group) while walking on a treadmill. Outcomes were success rates of obstacle avoidance as well as post-crossing step length, step time, hip flexion angle at foot strike, and peak hip extension of the steps measured within 10 seconds following obstacle release.RESULTSSuccess rates of obstacle avoidance were lower for persons post stroke. Moreover, their first post-crossing step length and time (i.e., the non-paretic step) deviated more from steady gait than those of persons in the control group (i.e., the right step), with lower values for persons post stroke. Similar deviations were observed for post-crossing hip flexion and extension excursions.LIMITATIONPersons post stroke were relatively mildly impaired and used an ankle foot orthosis, which may limit the generalizability to other populations post stroke.CONCLUSIONSPersons with post-stroke drop foot using an ankle foot orthosis have reduced gait adaptability, as evidenced by lower success rates of obstacle avoidance as well as by an impaired capacity to restore steady gait after crossing an obstacle. The latter finding unveils their difficulty in incorporating step modifications in ongoing gait.

• Pathokinematics of Precision Pinch Movement Associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

• Nataraj R1, Evans PJ, Seitz WH Jr, Li ZM.Author information 1Hand Research Laboratory, Departments of Biomedical Engineering, Orthopaedic Surgery, and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio.AbstractCarpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) can adversely affect fine motor control of the hand. Precision pinch between the thumb and index finger requires coordinated movements of these digits for reliable task performance. We examined the impairment upon precision pinch function affected by CTS during digit movement and digit contact. Eleven CTS subjects and 11 able-bodied (ABL) controls donned markers for motion capture of the thumb and index finger during precision pinch movement (PPM). Subjects were instructed to repetitively execute the PPM task, and performance was assessed by range of movement, variability of the movement trajectory, and precision of digit contact. The CTS group demonstrated shorter path-length of digit endpoints and greater variability in inter-pad distance and most joint angles across the PPM movement. Subjects with CTS also showed lack of precision in contact points on the digit-pads and relative orientation of the digits at contact. Carpal tunnel syndrome impairs the ability to perform precision pinch across the movement and at digit-contact. The findings may serve to identify deficits in manual dexterity for functional evaluation of CTS. © 2014 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Orthop Res.
