article Transcranial direct current stimulation is safe and effective in autoimmune myopathies: a randomised, double-blind, sham-controlled trial(2023) SOUSA, L. F. A. de; MISSE, R. G.; SANTOS, L. M. dos; TANAKA, C.; GREVE, J. M. A.; BAPTISTA, A. F.; SHINJO, S. K.Objective We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in patients with systemic autoimmune myopathies (SAMs).Methods This prospective, randomised, sham-controlled, double-blind, study included 20 patients with SAMs allocated to receive sham or active tDCS (2mA, 20 minutes, 3 days). Electrodes were positioned with the anode over the C1 or C2, whereas the cathode was placed over the Fp2 or Fp1, respectively. The groups were evaluated in four periods with specific questionnaires and functional tests: pre-stimulation and after 30 minutes, three weeks, and eight weeks post-tDCS.Results Two patients from the sham group withdrew after the three sessions. The demographic data, type of myositis, disease duration, and disease status were comparable between the active and sham tDCS groups. After interventions, in the active tDCS group, the physical aspects of SF-36 in week eight, mean and better timed up-and-go test at each evaluation, peak torque of stimulated inferior limb extension improved significantly (p<0.05). The emotional aspect of SF-36 decreased only in the active tDCS group (p<0.001). The patients' adherence to the protocol was 100% and no serious adverse event was reported, including disease relapses.Conclusion This study evidences the safety of tDCS, as well as its potential efficacy in improving muscle strength and function in SAMs patients. More studies with a larger sample and longer tDCS sessions are necessary to corroborate the results of the present study.- Caracterização eletromiográfica e ultrassonográfica da função mastigatória em indivíduos com oclusão normal(2012) MANGILLI, Laura Davison; SASSI, Fernanda Chiarion; SERNIK, Renato Antônio; TANAKA, Clarice; ANDRADE, Claudia Regina Furquim dePURPOSE: To characterize the motor control of the masseter and temporal muscles and the morphology of the masseter muscles during mastication in individuals with normal occlusion and to verify the consistency between surface electromyography (sEMG) and ultrasound (USD). METHODS: Participants were 22 adults, of both genders, with no alterations of the oral myofuntional system. The procedures performed included sEMG of the masseter (MM) and temporal (TM) muscles and USD of the MM, each during three tasks: resting condition and maximum voluntary dental clench with and without cotton rolls. RESULTS: The following statistical tests were used: Kolmogorov-Smirnov, paired t-test and Spearman correlation (significance level of 5%). The sEMG data indicated a significant difference between the MM and TM during the maximum voluntary clench with and without cotton rolls, and the TM was more active than the TM in both clenching tasks. No significant difference was observed between the sides of the face when assessed with sEMG or USD. A significant positive correlation between the exams was observed for the left maximum voluntary dental clench with and without cotton rolls, and a trend toward significance was found for the right maximum dental clench without cotton rolls. CONCLUSION: The comparison of sEMG to USD for the investigation of muscle function reveals important information about the physiology of skeletal muscles. The results of the present study suggest a correlation between sEMG and USD, i.e., between increased electrical activity and the corresponding increase in muscle thickness.
article 32 Citação(ões) na Scopus Physical Performance, Balance, Mobility, and Muscle Strength Decline at Different Rates in Elderly People(2014) NAKANO, Marcia Mariko; OTONARI, Thais Satie; TAKARA, Kelly Sayuri; CARMO, Carolina M.; TANAKA, Clarice[Purpose] The aim of this study was to verify the decline in functionality of elderly people. [Subjects and Methods] The study subjects comprised 152 individuals (96 women; 56 men) divided into 3 groups: G1 (60 to 69 years, n=53); G2 (70 to 79 years, n=65); and G3 (80 years or older, n=34). Physical performance, balance, mobility, and muscle strength were assessed using Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Berg Balance Scale (BERG), Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, and leg press test, respectively. Comparison among age-stratified groups (G1, G2 and G3) and between genders were examined using analysis of variance with Tukey's test as a post hoc test or the Kruskal-Wallis test with Bonferroni correction. [Results] SPPB and BERG scores decreased significantly in comparison between G1 and G3, and between G2 and G3 in women. TUG and leg press scores decreased significantly in comparison between G1 and G3 and between G2 and G3. [Conclusion] People in their 60s and 70s have similar functional characteristics (physical performance, balance, mobility and muscle strength for both genders), and functionality starts to decline when people are in their 80s.- Impact of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Pain, Fatigue, and Health Quality of Life of Patients with Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Sham-Controlled Crossover Clinical Trial(2024) MISSE, Rafael Giovani; SANTOS, Alexandre Moura dos; BORGES, Isabela Bruna Pires; GRECCO, Marcus Vinicius; FARIA, Marlise Sitima Mendes Simoes; SILVA, Lorenza Rosa Silverio da; CORREIA, Bruna Lindoso; KIM, Ana Woo Sook; TANAKA, Clarice; GREVE, Julia Maria D'Andrea; BAPTISTA, Abrahao Fontes; SHINJO, Samuel KatsuyukiObjectives. To assess the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) for pain, fatigue, physical function, and health-related quality of life in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM). Methods. This randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, crossover clinical trial enrolled IIM patients with fatigue and pain who received tDCS (20 min, 2 mA) or sham stimulation for 10 daily sessions. Electrodes were placed according to the 10/20 EEG system. Both the groups underwent aerobic exercise training during the intervention period. The patients were evaluated for disease perception, pain, and fatigue using uni-multidimensional questionnaires and physical tests in the periods before and after the first and second interventions and after 12 weeks of follow-up. Results. After the tDCS intervention, a reduction in the general score of multidimensional pain of 32.0 (1.5-38.0) vs. 0.0 (0.0-13.4) with effect size (ES) of -0.78 was noted, and after sham intervention, a reduction of 26.0 (0.0-37.0) vs. 5.0 (0.0-19.2) with ES of -0.54 (P=0.047) was also noted. Similar results were evidenced with fatigue (22.5 (15.4-33.2) vs. 5.5 (0.0-14.6) with ES of -0.82) and sham intervention (21.0 (15.8-29.5) vs. 4.0 (4.0-17.5) with ES of -0.80 (P=0.012)). There were no differences in the domains of the fatigue and pain questionnaires. Adherence was observed in 88.8% of the patients without adverse events. Conclusion. The association of tDCS with aerobic training promoted additional effects in relation to the group subjected to placebo stimulation on general pain and fatigue scores, as well as on pain intensity, without changes in the subdomains of the pain and fatigue questionnaire. This trial is registered with NCT04678635.

- Timing to out-of-bed mobilization and mobility levels of COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU: Experiences in Brazilian clinical practice(2024) UHLIG, Suelen E.; RODRIGUES, Miguel K.; OLIVEIRA, Mayron F.; TANAKA, ClariceIntroduction: At the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there was scarce data about clinical/functional conditions during hospitalization or after hospital discharge. Little was known about COVID-19 repercussions and how to do early mobilization in intensive care unit (ICU). Objective: Identify the time to the initiation of out-of-bed mobilization and the levels of mobility (sitting over the edge of the bed, sitting in a chair, standing, and ambulating) reached by critically ill patients with COVID-19 during hospitalization and the factors that could impact early mobilization. Methods: This was a retrospective observational study of patients with COVID-19 in the ICU. Results: There were 157 surviving COVID-19 patients included in the study (median age: 61 years; median ICU length of stay: 12 days). The median time to initiate out-of-bed mobilization in the ICU was 6 days; between patients who received mechanical ventilation (MV) compared with those who did not, this time was 8 vs. 2.5 days (p < .001). Most patients who used MV were mobilized after extubation (79.6%). During ICU stays, 88.0% of all patients were mobilized out of bed, and 41.0% were able to ambulate either with assistance or independently. The time to initiate out-of-bed mobilization is associated with sedation time and MV time. Conclusion: Despite the pandemic scenario, patients were quickly mobilized out of bed, and most of the patients achieved higher mobility levels in the ICU and at hospital discharge. Sedation time and MV time were associated with delays in initiating mobilization.
- Evidence-based umbrella review of non-invasive brain stimulation in anxiety disorders(2023) SA, Katia Nunes; BAPTISTA, Rachel Fontes; SHIRAHIGE, Livia; RAZZAA, Lais B.; NOGUEIRA, Mateus; COURA, Maria Helena Faria; AFONSO-SANTOS, Leonardo; TANAKA, Clarice; BAPTISTAA, Abrahao Fontes; MONTE-SILVA, Katia; BRUNONIA, Andre R.Background and objectives: Although several meta-analyses have suggested the efficacy of noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) mainly in prefrontal brain areas to treat mental disorders, no synthetic approach has been performed for other psychiatric disorders rather than depression. The objective is to assess the available evidence of NIBS in the treatment of anxiety disorders. Methods: An umbrella review (CRD42021239577) was performed only looking for reviews with meta-analyses of randomized clinical trials using a source strategy MeSH keywords in MEDLINE through Pubmed by two independent researchers. The effects of different methods of NIBS in anxiety disorders were assessed using the PICO strategy. The methodological quality was evaluated using AMSTAR-2 and certainty of evidence using the GRADE-pro framework. Results: From 136 screening meta-analyses, 16 from 14 studies were included in the final analysis. Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) respond best to low frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), while Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has the largest effect size at high frequency rTMS. Panic Disorder (PD) has no evi-dence for clinical use of NIBS. There were not identified meta-analyses about other anxietydisorders. In general, the included studies had good methodological quality, but low to moderate evidence for clinical recommendation. Conclusion: Available evidence reveals NIBS as an effective and safe approach to treat GAD, PTSD and OCD with low recommendation level to clinical application. A great heterogeneity of studies indicates the necessity to develop new randomized clinical trials applying NIBS to treat those and other mental disorders. \& COPY; 2023 Asociacion Universitaria de Zaragoza para el Progreso de la Psiquiatria y la Salud Mental.
- Risk Factors for the Impairment of Ambulation in Older People Hospitalized with COVID-19: A Retrospective Cohort Study(2023) SILVA, E. C. G. E.; SCHMITT, A. C. B.; GODOY, C. G. de; OLIVEIRA, D. B. de; TANAKA, C.; TOUFEN, C. Jr.; CARVALHO, C. R. R. de; CARVALHO, C. R. F.; FU, C.; HILL, K. D.; POMPEU, J. E.(1) Background: Some older people hospitalized with COVID-19 have experienced reduced ambulation capacity. However, the prevalence of the impairment of ambulation capacity still needs to be established. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of, and identify the risk factors associated with, the impairment of ambulation capacity at the point of hospital discharge for older people with COVID-19. (2) Methods: A retrospective cohort study. Included are those with an age > 60 years, of either sex, hospitalized due to COVID-19. Clinical data was collected from patients’ medical records. Ambulation capacity prior to COVID-19 infection was assessed through the patients’ reports from their relatives. Multiple logistic regressions were performed to identify the risk factors associated with the impairment of ambulation at hospital discharge. (3) Results: Data for 429 older people hospitalized with COVID-19 were randomly collected from the medical records. Among the 56.4% who were discharged, 57.9% had reduced ambulation capacity. Factors associated with reduced ambulation capacity at discharge were a hospital stay longer than 20 days (Odds Ratio (OR): 3.5) and dependent ambulation capacity prior to COVID-19 (Odds Ratio (OR): 11.3). (4) Conclusion: More than half of the older people who survived following hospitalization due to COVID-19 had reduced ambulation capacity at hospital discharge. Impaired ambulation prior to the infection and a longer hospital stay were risks factors for reduced ambulation capacity.
- Functional Recovery Groups in Critically III COVI D-19 Patients and Their Associated Factors: From ICU to Hospital Discharge(2022) SCHUJMANN, Debora Stripari; LUNARDI, Adriana Claudia; PESO, Claudia Neri; POMPEU, Jose Eduardo; ANNONI, Raquel; MIURA, Mieko Claudia; CENSO, Caroline Maschio de; TANIGUCHI, Luzia Noriko Takahashi; REGENGA, Marisa de Moraes; CAMPOS, Elaine Cristina de; RIGHETTI, Renato Fraga; YAMAGUTI, Wellington Pereira; BRITO, Christina May Moran de; LOURENCO, Adriana; AGUERA, Sabrina Castaldi; TANAKA, Clarice; FU, CarolinaOBJECTIVES: To analyze functional recovery groups of critically ill COVID-19 survivors during their hospital stay and to identify the associated factors. DESIGN: Prospective observational multicenter study. SETTING: Demographic, clinical, and therapeutic variables were collected, and physical and functional status were evaluated. The Barthel index was evaluated at three time points: 15 days before hospitalization, at ICU discharge, and at hospital discharge from the ward. PATIENTS: Patients with functional independence before COVID-19 diagnosis were recruited from four hospitals and followed up until hospital discharge. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Three groups of functional recovery were described for 328 patients: functional independence (n = 144; 44%), which included patients who preserved their functional status during hospitalization; recovered functionality = 109; 33.2%), which included patients who showed dependence at ICU discharge but recovered their independence by hospital discharge; and functional dependency (n = 75; 22.8%), which included patients who were dependent at ICU discharge and had not recovered their functional status at hospital discharge. The factors associated with becoming functionally dependent at ICU discharge were time to out-of-bed patient mobilization (odds ratio [OR], 1.20; 95% CI, 1.11-1.29), age (OR, 1.02; 95% CI, 1.01-1.04), hyperglycemia (OR, 2.52; 95% CI, 1.56-4.07), and Simplified Acute Physiology Score (OR, 1.022; 95% CI, 1.01-1.04). Recovery to baseline independence during ward stays was associated with ICU length of stay (OR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.94-0.99) and muscle strength (Medical Research Council test) at ICU discharge (OR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.08-1.18). CONCLUSIONS: Age, hyperglycemia, and time for patient mobilization out of bed were independent factors associated with becoming physically dependent after their ICU stay. Recovery of physical function at hospital discharge was associated with muscle strength at ICU discharge and length of ICU stay.
