Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise programs for people with dementia
TL;DR: A benefit of exercise programs on the ability of people with dementia to perform ADLs is found in six trials with 289 participants, and a meta-analysis revealed that there was no clear evidence of benefit from exercise on cognitive functioning.
Reference EntryDOI
Physical activity programs for persons with dementia
TL;DR: There is insufficient evidence of the effectiveness of physical activity programs in managing or improving cognition, function, behaviour, depression, and mortality in people with dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multicenter prospective longitudinal study of magnetic resonance biomarkers in a large duchenne muscular dystrophy cohort.
Rebecca J. Willcocks,William D. Rooney,William T. Triplett,Sean C. Forbes,Donovan J. Lott,Claudia R. Senesac,Michael J. Daniels,Dah Jyuu Wang,Ann T. Harrington,Gihan Tennekoon,Barry S. Russman,Erika Finanger,Barry J. Byrne,Richard S. Finkel,Glenn A. Walter,H. Lee Sweeney,Krista Vandenborne +16 more
TL;DR: D Duchenne muscular dystrophy disease progression in the lower extremity muscles over 12 months is described using quantitative magnetic resonance (MR) biomarkers, collected across three sites in a large cohort.
Journal ArticleDOI
T2 mapping provides multiple approaches for the characterization of muscle involvement in neuromuscular diseases: a cross‐sectional study of lower leg muscles in 5–15‐year‐old boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Ishu Arpan,Sean C. Forbes,Donovan J. Lott,Claudia R. Senesac,Michael J. Daniels,William T. Triplett,Jasjit Deol,H. Lee Sweeney,Glenn A. Walter,Krista Vandenborne +9 more
TL;DR: The elevated T2 measures with and without fat saturation at all ages of DMD examined, compared with unaffected controls indicate that the dystrophic muscles have increased regions of damage, edema and fat infiltration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal measurements of MRI-T2 in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy: effects of age and disease progression.
Rebecca J. Willcocks,Ishu Arpan,Sean C. Forbes,Donovan J. Lott,Claudia R. Senesac,Emily S. Senesac,Jasjit Deol,William T. Triplett,Celine Baligand,Michael J. Daniels,H.L. Sweeney,Glenn A. Walter,Krista Vandenborne +12 more
TL;DR: MRI measurement of muscle T2 in boys with DMD is sensitive to disease progression and shows promise as a clinical outcome measure.
