Aim: After stroke, the majority of stroke survivors experience significant arm-hand impairments anda decreased use of the paretic arm and hand in daily life. The actual use of the affected hand in dailylife performance depends on the severity of the arm-hand impairment and is associated with perceivedlimitations in participation. Severity of arm-hand impairment is also associated with a decrease ofhealth-related quality of life, restricted social participation, and subjective well-being.Thus the studyaims to assess the hand function using Jebsen Taylor Hand function test among patients post stroke.Methodology: Hand function was assessed using the Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test,which includedseven tasks to be performed by the subjects.Hand function was assessed in 22 post stroke patients whohad experienced the stroke event at least 6 months prior.Results: Out of the seven activities performed by 22 patients,the time required for all the activitiesis given as follows (highest to lowest) –Writing, Simulated feeding, Small; common objects, Cardturning, Checkers, Light; heavy objects, Large; light objects.Conclusion: Overall the study showed that the writing activity required the most amount of time for allthe subjects. The study also concludes that the time duration required is greater for the non-dominanthand compared to the dominant hand for all the above mentioned activities.

Background: Gait dysfunction is a major sequalae of stroke which negatively affect stroke survivors’walking and community re-integration. Understanding the impairments that determine their communityfunctioning willassist in development of effective treatment strategies for them to overcome theirdisability.Aim: The aim of the study was to explore thespatiotemporal gait parameters and walking characteristicsin community-dwelling ambulatory stroke survivors and determined howthey differ across time ofcommencement of ambulation and duration of ambulation post-stroke.Method: This study involved 164 (83males) community-dwelling ambulatory stroke survivors inKano, Nigeria. The spatiotemporal gait parameters wereassessed along 12-meter distance walkingpath. Spatiotemporal symmetry was computed from the spatiotemporal parameters. Lower limb motorimpairment, lower extremity function, and functional ambulation were assessed using Fugyl-Meyerassessment scale, Lower Extremity Functional scale, and Modified Emory functional ambulatoryprofile respectively. Their physical mobility was assessed using Modified Rivermead mobility index,walking confidence using ambulatory self-confidence questionnaire while Berg balance scale was usedto measure balance. Functional mobility and walking endurance was assessed using the Time up andgo test and 6-minute walk test respectively.Walking status was assessed with functional ambulatorycategory.Results: The participants were aged30years and abovewith 61% above 50years. Most (59.8%)participants commenced ambulation within 1-month of stroke with 65.9% being independent infunctional ambulation. Their spatiotemporal, mobility and balance parameters as well as spatiotemporalsymmetry characteristics were severely affected and are significantly inversely related to their times ofcommencement of ambulation post-stroke.Conclusion: Spatiotemporal gait parameters, mobility parametersand balance performances areseverely abnormal in community-dwelling stroke survivors and negatively impact on their walkingability and community functioning.

Background: Dance performance requires lower extremity muscle strength and endurance, sufficientcore stabilization, dynamic balance during dance movements. Diminished core strength and coreendurance has been shown lead to a higher incidence of lower extremity injuries and to low backinjuries. Greater core muscle strength, increased core endurance and good dynamic balance havebeen reported to be associated with reduced lower extremity injury risk. Still, the exact relationshipsamong these factors remain unclear. Most of studies have examined ballet and modern dancers but folkdance is not studied adequately in the literature as different genres of dance have different physicaldemands, it is important to examine whether the relationships among Core stability, balance, injuries,and performance are similar across the various dance genres.Objectives: Weak core and poor balance are said to be associated with lower limb and low back injuries.Thus the correlation between core stabilization and balance need to be evaluated in details to reducethe risk of injuries.Methods: It is a cross-sectional observational study, with a total of 30 folk dancers. Core endurancewas measured by using plank tests and core strength was measured by the Bent Knee Lowering Test(BKLT).Balance was measured via the Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) which was co-related withcore strength and core endurance.Conclusion: There is no correlation between core strength and balance in folk dancers. Core enduranceis weakly correlated with balance.

Background: The Orebro Musculoskeletal Screening Questionnaire-12 item (H-OMPQ-12) is used to assess absenteeism, chronicity, pain and impairment in patients with musculoskeletal dysfunction. However, this questionnaire is not available for Hindi speaking population. Thus the aim of this study is to cross-culturally adapt the Orebro Musculoskeletal Screening Questionnaire 12-item into a Hindi language and to assess its psychometric properties (validity and reliability). Materials and Methods : The Orebro Musculoskeletal Screening Questionnaire 12-item was translated and cross culturally adapted into Hindi language. Hindi version of the scale was administered by 71 subjects with all musculoskeletal conditions. Along with the Hindi version of the scale, subjects were also given the Numerical pain rating scale and Hindi-Modified Oswestry disability Index (MODI). Psychometric evaluation included test re-test reliability and construct and convergent validity. Results: The translated Hindi version demonstrated good internal consistency (α = 0.85) and test– retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.84). The construct validity of the Hindi Orebro Musculoskeletal Screening Questionnaire was seen to be 0.89 and the convergent validity was found by correlation of the H-OMSQ 12 item with Numerical Pain Rating scale as well as with Hindi version of Modified Oswestry Disability Index, which was found to be moderate p =0.632 and p =0.618 respectively . Conclusion : The Hindi version of the 12 item-OMSQ showed a good internal consistency as well as test re-tests reliability and there was moderate correlation with the Numerical pain rating scale and the MODI.

Background: Co-ordination is a key factor for smooth movements in human body. To study coordinationof an individual measuring reaction time is an important tool.Prolonged reaction time in addition with difficulty in recognition of stimuli affects co-ordinationspecially in geriatric population. Frenkel’s exercises improves reaction time, thus improves coordination.Listening to music is enjoyed by all and has shown to be useful in cognitive functions.Studies have shown that listening to music enhances co-ordination and improves reaction time.Objective: To compare effects of Frenkel exercise with classical music and effects of Frenkel exerciseswith heavy metal music on simple and choice reaction time (SRT and CRT) in geriatric population.Methods: 60 geriatric individuals with age group 65-70 years were examined for simple and choicereaction time. Individuals were divided into 2 groups equally. Group A received classical music withFrenkel exercises and group B heavy metal music with Frenkel exercise. Participants were givenFrenkel exercise 2 weeks daily for 30 minutes and post reaction readings were taken for reaction time.Results: After analysing the results by Mann Whitney U test,Mean pre SRT group A was 499.29, mean pre SRT group B was 540.80. Mean post SRT group A was379.76, mean post SRT group B was 586.56 (p<0.001)Mean pre-CRT group A was 970.70, mean pre-CRT group B was 1107.6 (p<0.001). Mean post CRTgroup A was 894.30, mean post CRT group B was 1151.7 (p<0.001)Conclusion: There is significant difference in simple and choice reaction time after receiving classicalmusic and heavy metal music with Frenkel exerciseTraining for co-ordination can yield significant improvement on receiving classical music as an adjuvantto Frenkel exercise.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between static and dynamic postural stability and functionaldisability associated with chronic low back pain (CLBP).Methods: A total of 80 patients (age 44.64 ± 1.27 years) were recruited in this cross sectional studyusing convenience sampling. The One Leg Stand Test (OLST) was used to assess static balance witheyes open and eyes closed; Y Balance Test- Lower Quarter (YBT-LQ) was used to assess dynamicbalance in the anterior, posterolateral and posteromedial directions; and functional disability wasassessed using modified Oswestry Disability Index (mODI). Karl Pearson correlation coefficient wasused to estimate the relationship between the variables.Results and Conclusion: mODI was negatively correlated to OLST with eyes closed (r= -0.721); YBTLQcomposite score (r= -0.865); and reach distances in the posterolateral (r= -0.815) and posteromedial(r= -0.832) directions suggesting that control of postural stability was reduced with an increase indisability in patients with CLBP.
