We carried out a prospective uncontrolled intervention study with a 8-weeks of ARGT on sixty three outpatients with MDD, GAD or OCD. Hamilton rating scale for depression, Hamilton rating scale for anxiety, Yale-Brown obsessive-compulsive scale, attribution style questionnaire, self-esteem scale, index of well-being, and social disability screening schedule were administered before and after treatment. Significant improvement in symptoms and psychological and social functions from pre- to posttreatment occurred for all participants. The changes favored MDD patients. Our study suggested that ARGT may improve the symptoms and psychological-social functions of MDD, GAD, and OCD patients. MDD patients showed the best response.展开更多

It has been found that high PPP correlates to the common foot deformities including pes planus/cavus. However, previous studies utilized excessive electronics in gait retraining, which is challenging toimplement daily especially when device cleaning, flexibility and portability are considered. Therefore, this studyinvestigated feasibility of a novel unpowered gait retraining for reducing high PPP. Twelve potential participantsidentified for investigation through a baseline PPP evaluation with Novel Pedar-x system. Participants received asingle session for the gait retraining with pebbles in the form of rigid spherical inserts (RSI) placed in locations ofhigh PPP inside the deformable insole. This provides tactile cues alerting the participants to alter their gait toreduce excess PPP. The PPP values were tracked in weekly follow-up sessions for 6 weeks. The results demonstrated that participants responded to RSI altering their gait to reduce PPP and maximum force by 14% and 10.5%after six weeks respectively. This study is valuable for physicians in reducing PPP when non-electronics arerequired.展开更多
