Background: The foot is a complex structure with multiple functions like weight bearing, propulsion andshock absorption. Plantar fasciitis is an important public health disorder and most of the population mayhave such a presentation at some point in their lifetime. Abnormal weight-bearing, standing for prolongedperiods can cause excessive loading on the plantar fascia causing heel pain. Navicular positions may havean impact on the fascia hence this study intended on assessing the navicular position in subjects with plantarfasciitis.Methods: Written informed consent was taken from all subjects. 49 subjects were recruited for the study ofwhich 46 were females and 3 were males. The navicular height was measured using a goniometer.Descriptivestatistics were used for calculation of percentage values.Conclusion: Our study concluded that subjects with plantar fasciitis did not have a navicular drop. Majorityof the participants had a high arch. Future studies should include larger sample size and also considerrecruiting all genders equally for optimal results.

Background and Objective: In older adults most important two factor is cognition and hand motorfunctions, most noticeable in requiring much skill in fine motor activities. The normal process of aginginvolves declines in cognitive and sensorimotor functions that affect performance of activities of dailyliving. Dexterity measures help to detects early decline of hand function and it is necessary to quantifymanual dexterity of older adults not only design for work but also for the product and system daily activitiesby older adults. Force control is necessary for grip because most daily object required acquired force formovement not maximum force. While using large grip forces can lead to changes in the aging neuromotorsystem other than impaired tactile afferent functioning. Some older adults may produce less stable isometricforces with hand and arm muscles because of peripheral reorganization of their muscles. There is greaterconnection between hand grip strength and cognition, the deterioration of cognitive function is a high risk ofAD. Therefore, handgrip strength considers as an early marker of cognitive decline and incident dementia.Objective is to find relationship between hand grip strength, cognition, and hand dexterity in older adults.Methodology: 16 subjects were recruited on the basis of selection criteria. Subjects evaluated cognition,grip strength, and hand dexterity using outcome measures are MoCA, hand held dynamometer, and 9-holepeg test respectively.Results: Karl Pearson correlation were used for the statistical analysis. The result showed that moderatecorrelation between cognition and grip strength for right and left side with p value 0.031 and r value 0.540,and p = 0.40 and r = 0.517 respectively and weak correlation between cognition and hand dexterity for bothright and left with p value 0.162 and r = -.367 and p = .180, r= -.353 respectively.Conclusion: the study shows moderate association between cognition and grip strength and weak correlationbetween cognition and hand dexterity for both right and left side.

Purpose: Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is a complex disorder usually characterized by pain,crepitus and reduced movement which may be caused due to unbalanced activity, muscular spasm, oroveruse of the jaw muscles. Awareness among dentists in and around Mumbai and Navi-Mumbai about PT’srole for TMD treatment was found to be unknown. Therefore, the study aimed at finding out the awarenessof physiotherapy management of TMD amongst dentists.Method: This was a cross-sectional study including 100 dentists done over a period of 6 months. Thedata was collected from various private setups and hospitals in and around Mumbai and Navi-Mumbai. Aconsent form and a self-prepared validated questionnaire was used. The data was statistically analysed anddescriptive analysis was done with the help of pie charts and bar diagrams.Results: In our study 89% of the dentists considered physiotherapy as a treatment option for TMD. However,49% of the dentists refer people with TMD to physiotherapists. Fewer dentists were aware that physiotherapyhelps in improving strength and coordination of jaw muscles while greater number of dentists were awarethat physiotherapy also helps in pain relief, relaxation, minimization of stiffness and restoration of normalmobility and function.Conclusions: Although a large percentage of dentists that completed the survey were aware of the role of PTin treating people with TMD, the rate of referral was low. Therefore, there is a need to educate the dentistsabout the role of physiotherapy in treating people with TMD, to encourage them to refer people with TMDand thereby promote multidisciplinary rehabilitation of this complex disorder.

ANEC wassuspected based on clinical and radiological characteristics and diagnosis was made based on diagnosticcriteria proposed by Mizuguchi et al. Clinical and radiological (MRI brain characteristics) findings andresponse to standard therapy, early physiotherapy and rehabilitation were assessed in all cases. All caseswere followed for evaluation of neurodevelopmental outcome.Results: The age ranged from 6 months to 11 years (7 female, 3 male). All cases had precedent viralillnesses and had fever, coryza, diarrhoea. The initial neurological symptoms included altered sensorium(n=3), seizures and status epilepticus (n=7), focal neurological signs, gait disturbances (n=2) and diplopia(n=1). MRI brain revealed characteristic thalamus involvement with varied involvement of midbrain, pons,medulla (n=10). 9 out of 10 cases survived, responded to standard medical therapy , early physiotherapy andrehabilitation. 6 children had complete recovery with minimal disability in 3 cases.Conclusions: Early detection and appropriate treatment improves outcome in ANEC. Physiotherapy helpsin remarkable improvement in the regain of tone, reflexes and movements of limbs

Introduction: Stroke is the leading cause of disability which requires rehabilitation. It is defined asobstruction or restriction of blood supply to the brain, usually because a blood vessel supplying brain is burstor blocked by a clot; causing damage to the cells of brain. This in turn may result in physical and/or mentaldisabilities. Upper limb functions are most commonly impaired following stroke; which also deterioratesactivities of daily living. tDCS is a novice approach which can improve upper limb function by modulatingcortical neuronal excitability.Objective: To investigate the effect of cathodal, anodal and sham tDCS on balance and stroke specificquality of life in stroke patients.Method: 30 stroke patients meeting inclusion criteria were randomly allocated into three groups. Group A,B and C received cathodal tDCS, anodal tDCS and sham tDCS respectively. The intensity of the current was2mA given for 20 minutes along with all the upper limb active and fine motor exercises. It was given for 12sessions in 3 weeks. Berg balance scale and stroke specific quality of life questionnaire was taken to assesslower limb function respectively. It was taken before and after the 3 weeks.Result: paired t test showed that the balance improved before and after treatment with cathodal (0.003)and anodal (0.000) tDCS and sham stimulation (0.917). and also for SSQOL cathodal and anodal showedimprovement in quality of life but sham stimulation showed no improvement. (0.173). Kruskal Wallis Testshowed significant difference in between the groups (p<0.05) which showed balance improved more inanodal tDCS than cathodal and sham. Also cathodal tDCS balance compared to sham tDCS. but in SSQOLthere was no significant improvement seen in all three groups.Conclusion: Both cathodal and anodal tDCS improve balance over sham tDCS. Improvement of balancewith anodal tDCS was better than cathodal tDCS. There was no change in SSOL.
