Targeted Biofeedback Training to Improve Gait Parameters in Subacute Stroke Patients: A Single-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial.

Biofeedback (BFB) is a rehabilitation method, which, among other things, is used for the restitution of motor and gait function. As of now, it has become technically feasible to use BFB training based on target gait parameters to improve the gait function in stroke patients. The walking patterns of stroke patients are generally characterized by significant gait phase asymmetries, mostly of the stance phase and the single stance phase. The aim of the study was to investigate the restoration of gait function using BFB training with gait phases as feedback targets. The study included two patient groups, each of 20 hemiparetic patients in the subacute stage of stroke and a control group of 20 healthy subjects. Each patient group received BFB training with either stance phase or single stance phase as the feedback target, respectively. The patients received a total of 8 to 11 training sessions. Assessments based on clinical scales and gait analysis data (spatiotemporal, kinematic, and EMG parameters) were performed before and after the training course. The score-based clinical assessments showed a significant improvement in both patient groups. According to the assessments of gait biomechanics, the subjects in the Single Stance Phase group had significantly more severe dysfunctions. In both patient groups, the unaffected limb responded to the BFB training, while the stance phase significantly changed after training in the unaffected limb only. The other patient group, trained using the single stance phase as the feedback target, showed no changes in the target parameter either in the affected or in the contralateral limb. The clinical and instrumental assessments showed different, non-equivalent sensitivity. The results of the study demonstrated the possibility to use targeted BFB training to improve walking function. However, a significant effect of such training was only observed with stance phase as the target parameter. A response to training was observed predominantly in the unaffected limb and facilitated the desired increase in the functional ability of the paretic limb. Training based on stance phase as the target parameter is probably preferable for the patient population under study.

Digital Employee Training With Digital Adoption Platforms Boost Learning and Knowledge Management of Corporate IT Systems

Due to increasing digitalization, employees need to use an increasing number of corporate IT systems. Digital Adoption Platforms (DAPs) recently address the resulting need for increased learning and skills to master such systems. Although of great practical importance, software adoption and learning literature has not yet studied the phenomenon of DAPs. Thus, after studying currently used DAPs (n=22 DAPs) we created our own DAP with interactive functionality based on this research. Subsequently we conducted an online experiment (n=152 employees) to assess if DAPs have positive training and learning effect on employees. More specifically, we compared the training and learning effects of using the DAP vs. using a classic user manual. The results of our ANOVA analyses show that employees using a DAP for learning will perceive a new corporate IT system as more useful than employees using a classic user manual for training. The use of DAPs significantly increases an employee's intention to use the new corporate IT system showing significant positive learning and training effects.

The Relationship Between 10-year Changes in Cognitive Ability and Subsequent Mortality: Findings from the Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly (ACTIVE) Trial.

Cognitive ability and cognitive decline are related to mortality in older adults. Cognitive interventions have been found to improve cognitive performance and slow cognitive decline in later life. However, the longitudinal effects of cognitive interventions on mortality in older adults remain unclear. Using twenty-year follow-up data from the Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly (ACTIVE) trial, we examined the association between cognitive trajectory (i.e., intercept, slope, and retest effect) and mortality, using shared growth-survival models. We evaluated the effect of ACTIVE cognitive training (memory, reasoning, and speed of processing) on mortality risk. Among the 2,802 participants, 2,021 died on or before the year 2019 (72.1%). Higher baseline, slower decline, and greater retest effects in general cognitive performance were associated with lower mortality risk after adjusting for covariates. Associations with mortality were similar contrasting general and domain-specific cognitive abilities. We did not observe any significant effects of ACTIVE cognitive training in memory, reasoning, or speed of processing on all-cause mortality. Our findings suggest cognitive training interventions do not have a significant effect on cognitive trajectory and mortality among older adults; rather, older adults with higher education tend to incur greater survival benefits from memory training.

Body weight training versus series 7 diabetes dance: their influence on glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Managing blood glucose levels is critical for preventing complications associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Physical activity has been shown to be an effective strategy for glucose control, with various forms of exercise yielding different results. This research aims to explore the effects of body weight training and series 7 diabetes dance on reducing blood glucose levels in patients with T2DM, and to compare the efficacy of these two interventions in achieving glucose control. The type of research was a quasi-experiment with a two groups pre-test post-test design. The series 7 diabetes dance group performed the exercise 4 times a week (duration: 170 minutes 8 seconds/week), while the body weight training group performed exercise 3 times a week (8 movements, number of repetitions close to failure, circuit system, 3 sets per training session). Both groups were doing an exercise program for three months. The research sample was for about 16 patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus (8 people per group, devided randomly), taken by using non probability sampling technique, purposive sampling type (effect size 1.6, significant level (α) 0.05 and Power 0.8). The data analysis used the paired sample t test and the independent t test with a significance level of α = 0.05.The results showed that 1) there is no significant effect of series 7 diabetes dance towards the decreasing the level of blood sugar of the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus), 2) there is a significant effect of body weight training towards the decreasing level of blood glucose of the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, 3) dody weight training is more effective in decreasing the level of blood glucose of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to series 7 diabetes dance. Future research must be carried out as a true experiment with a larger number of samples and with the HbA1c research instrument.

The effects of endurance trainability phenotype, sex, and interval running training on bone collagen synthesis in adult rats

Bone is influenced by many factors such as genetics and mechanical loading, but the short-term physiological effects of these factors on bone (re)modelling are not well characterised. This study investigated the effects of endurance trainability phenotype, sex, and interval running training (7-week intervention) on bone collagen formation in rats using a deuterium oxide stable isotope tracer method. Bone samples of the femur diaphysis, proximal tibia, mid-shaft tibia, and distal tibia were collected after necropsy from forty-six 9 ± 3-month male and female rats selectively bred for yielding low (LRT) or high (HRT) responses to endurance training. Bone collagen proteins were isolated and hydrolysed, and fractional synthetic rates (FSRs) were determined by the incorporation of deuterium into protein-bound alanine via GC-pyrolysis-IRMS. There was a significant large main effect of phenotype at the femur site (p < 0.001; η2g = 0.473) with HRT rats showing greater bone collagen FSRs than LRT rats. There was a significant large main effect of phenotype (p = 0.008; η2g = 0.178) and a significant large main effect of sex (p = 0.005; η2g = 0.196) at the proximal site of the tibia with HRT rats showing greater bone collagen FSRs than LRT rats, and male rats showing greater bone collagen FSRs compared to female rats. There was a significant large main effect of training at the mid-shaft site of the tibia (p = 0.012; η2g = 0.159), with rats that underwent interval running training having greater bone collagen FSRs than control rats. Similarly, there was a significant large main effect of training at the distal site of the tibia (p = 0.050; η2g = 0.156), with rats in the interval running training group having greater bone collagen FSRs compared to rats in the control group. Collectively, this evidence highlights that bone responses to physiological effects are site-specific, indicating that interval running training has positive effects on bone collagen synthesis at the tibial mid-shaft and distal sites, whilst genetic factors affect bone collagen synthesis at the femur diaphysis (phenotype) and proximal tibia (phenotype and sex) in rats.

Prefrontal neuronal dynamics in the absence of task execution

Prefrontal cortical activity represents stimuli in working memory tasks in a low-dimensional manifold that transforms over the course of a trial. Such transformations reflect specific cognitive operations, so that, for example, the rotation of stimulus representations is thought to reduce interference by distractor stimuli. Here we show that rotations occur in the low-dimensional activity space of prefrontal neurons in naïve male monkeys (Macaca mulatta), while passively viewing familiar stimuli. Moreover, some aspects of these rotations remain remarkably unchanged after training to perform working memory tasks. Significant training effects are still present in population dynamics, which further distinguish correct and error trials during task execution. Our results reveal automatic functions of prefrontal neural circuits allow transformations that may aid cognitive flexibility.

Evaluating Changes in Adult Cochlear Implant Users' Brain and Behavior Following Auditory Training.

To describe the effects of two types of auditory training on both behavioral and physiological measures of auditory function in cochlear implant (CI) users, and to examine whether a relationship exists between the behavioral and objective outcome measures. This study involved two experiments, both of which used a within-subject design. Outcome measures included behavioral and cortical electrophysiological measures of auditory processing. In Experiment I, 8 CI users participated in a music-based auditory training. The training program included both short training sessions completed in the laboratory as well as a set of 12 training sessions that participants completed at home over the course of a month. As part of the training program, study participants listened to a range of different musical stimuli and were asked to discriminate stimuli that differed in pitch or timbre and to identify melodic changes. Performance was assessed before training and at three intervals during and after training was completed. In Experiment II, 20 CI users participated in a more focused auditory training task: the detection of spectral ripple modulation depth. Training consisted of a single 40-minute session that took place in the laboratory under the supervision of the investigators. Behavioral and physiologic measures of spectral ripple modulation depth detection were obtained immediately pre- and post-training. Data from both experiments were analyzed using mixed linear regressions, paired t tests, correlations, and descriptive statistics. In Experiment I, there was a significant improvement in behavioral measures of pitch discrimination after the study participants completed the laboratory and home-based training sessions. There was no significant effect of training on electrophysiologic measures of the auditory N1-P2 onset response and acoustic change complex (ACC). There were no significant relationships between electrophysiologic measures and behavioral outcomes after the month-long training. In Experiment II, there was no significant effect of training on the ACC, although there was a small but significant improvement in behavioral spectral ripple modulation depth thresholds after the short-term training. This study demonstrates that auditory training improves spectral cue perception in CI users, with significant perceptual gains observed despite cortical electrophysiological responses like the ACC not reliably predicting training benefits across short- and long-term interventions. Future research should further explore individual factors that may lead to greater benefit from auditory training, in addition to optimization of training protocols and outcome measures, as well as demonstrate the generalizability of these findings.

Evaluating the impact of safety pictogram training on comprehension scores and knowledge retention among engineering students

Safety pictograms are essential tools for identifying workplace hazards by providing critical information about health hazard risks, fire safety, emergency evacuation, and accident prevention. Effective safety pictogram training programs are necessary to enhance workers' knowledge of these pictograms. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a safety pictogram training program on the comprehension and retention of knowledge among engineering students. A total of 262 participants were asked to predict the meaning of 22 safety pictograms regulated by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 7010 before and after a one-hour online training session. A follow-up test was administered six months later to assess long-term knowledge retention. Results showed that the average comprehension rate increased from 60.1 % before training to 68.3 % after training, with a retention rate of 66.0 % six months after training. The study found that training positively affected comprehension of emergency and mandatory action pictograms, while lower scores were observed for warning pictograms. Statistical tests revealed a significant effect of training on comprehension levels 16 out of 22 pictograms, with an average increase in comprehension of 11.2 %. Of these 16 pictograms, the comprehension level of 10 pictograms increased after training and remained at the same level six months later. However, the scores decreased slightly six months after the intervention, indicating the need for continued reinforcement or retraining. These findings have important implications for safety education and training programs, particularly in industries where safety hazards are widespread. The positive impact of training on comprehension scores highlights the ongoing need to improve safety pictogram comprehension to consistently meet standard acceptance criteria. Future training programs may need to focus on categories such as warning pictograms and fire equipment and fire action pictograms, which exhibited lower comprehension scores, to ensure better employee understanding.

Emotion regulation training for adolescents with major depression: Results from a randomized controlled trial.

Difficulties in emotion regulation (ER) are thought to contribute to the development and maintenance of major depression (MD) in adolescents. In healthy adults, a task-based training of ER has previously proven effective to reduce stress, but no such studies are available for MD. It is also unclear whether findings can be generalized onto adolescent populations. The final sample consisted of n = 70 adolescents with MD, who were randomized to a task-based ER training (n = 36) or a control training (n = 34). Across four sessions, the ER group was trained to downregulate negative affect to negative images via reappraisal, while the control group was instructed to attend the images. Rumination, stress-, and affect-related measures were assessed as primary outcomes, behavioral and neurophysiological responses (late positive potential, LPP), as secondary outcomes. The trial was preregistered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03957850). While there was no significant differential effect of the ER training on primary outcomes, we found small to moderate effects on rumination in the ER group, but not the control group. During reappraisal (compared to attend), the ER group showed an unexpected increase of the LPP during the first, but not during later training sessions. Although replication in large, multicenter trials is needed, our findings on effect sizes suggest that ER training might be promising to decrease rumination in adolescent MD. The LPP increase at the first session may represent cognitive effort, which was successfully reduced over the sessions. Future studies should research whether training effects transfer to daily life and are durable over a longer time period. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

The Effect of Squat Training with Barbell and Resistance Band on Leg Power of Volleyball Athletes

The purpose of this study was to determine (1) the effect of squat training with barbell on increasing leg power of volleyball athletes, (2) the effect of squat training with resistance band on increasing leg power of volleyball athletes, (3) the difference in the effect of squat training with barbell and resistance band squats on increasing leg power of volleyball athletes. The type of research is experimental. The sample used is volleyball athletes totalling 20 athletes with an age range of 14-16 years. The leg power test instrument uses a vertical jump. Data analysis techniques using Paired Sample Test and Independent Samples Test. The results showed that (1) There is a significant effect of squat training with barbell on leg power of volleyball athletes (p 0.000 &lt; 0.05), (2) There is a significant effect of squat with resistance band on leg power of volleyball athletes (p 0.000 &lt; 0.05), (3) There is a significant difference in squat training with barbell and resistance band squats on increasing leg power of volleyball athletes. Squat training with resistance band is better than squats with barbell on increasing the leg power of volleyball athletes, with a difference of 1.30. The implication of the research results that to increase the leg power of volleyball athletes can be done by applying squat training with barbell and resistance band. This means that athletes are given exercises that are in accordance with their characteristics so that in the training process they feel happy and motivated to follow the training process, so that the training objectives will be maximised. Then another implication is that by encouraging coaches to apply suitable exercises can trigger athlete involvement in training.

Randomised controlled trial of an online cognitive training program in school-aged children with cerebral palsy

BackgroundChildren with cerebral palsy (CP) experience deficits in nonverbal reasoning. The SMART online cognitive intervention has been associated with gains in IQ and nonverbal IQ in previous studies in typically developing school-aged children and children experiencing learning difficulties. AimTo assess the efficacy of an online cognitive intervention in school-aged children with CP. Methods and Procedures21 children with CP (male n = 17; 76.2%), mean age 9 y 8 m, SD 1 y 1 month (range 8 y 3 m to 12 y 6 m) were randomised into the intervention group (n = 9) or a waitlist control group. A mixed-methods approach with an explanatory sequential design was used, with a randomised controlled trial followed by qualitative interviews. Participants were assessed on measures of intelligence, academic ability, attention and executive functioning, and social-emotional functioning at baseline, then after completing the training, or the waitlist period. Analyses included ANCOVAs and paired samples t tests. Semi-structured interviews explored participants’ experiences with the training. Results and OutcomesTraining completion was low with a mean of 16.9 modules completed out of 55 available. No significant effect of training was found for the primary outcome of intelligence, or for any secondary outcomes. Participants reported barriers and facilitators for accessing the program. ImplicationsCognitive training programs addressing relational framing ability may require significant modifications before they can be effectively tested with children with CP.
