Introducción y objetivo: La hipoterapia (HPOT) y los simuladores de hipoterapia (SHPOT) se utilizan en niños con parálisis cerebral para lograr su máxima funcionalidad e independencia. El objetivo es conocer si la HPOT y los SHPOT producen los mismos efectos beneficiosos sobre el equilibrio, la función motora gruesa y el control postural en menores de 18 años con parálisis cerebral. Materiales y métodos: Se utilizaron como palabras clave: hippotherapy, equine-assisted therapy y cerebral palsy. Las bases de datos utilizadas fueron: PeDro, Scopus, LILACS, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, Web of Science y CINAHL Complete (Ebsco). Fueron incluidos ensayos clínicos aleatorizados que estudiaran el efecto de la HPOT y/o los SHPOT sobre las variables mencionadas. Resultados: Cuatro estudios evaluaron el equilibrio, 4 la función motora gruesa y 2 el control postural. La HPOT y los SHPOT produjeron beneficios en todos ellos. Conclusiones: Ambas intervenciones producen mejoras sobre las variables estudiadas, aunque aumentan con la HPOT posiblemente debido a una mayor estimulación sensorial.(AU)
Introduction and objective: Hippotherapy (HPOT) and hippotherapy simulators (SHPOT) are used in children with cerebral palsy to achieve their maximum functionality and independence. The aim is to find out if HPOT and SHPOT produce the same effects on balance, gross motor function, and postural control in children under 18 years old with cerebral palsy. Materials and methods: The keywords used were: hippotherapy, equine-assisted therapy and cerebral palsy. The databases used were PeDro, Scopus, LILACS, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, Web of Science and CINAHL Complete (Ebsco). Studies were included if they were randomized clinical trials that studied the effect of HPOT and/or SHPOT on the variables mentioned in these patients. Results: Four studies assessed balance, 4 studied gross motor function, and 2 investigated postural control. Both HPOT and SHPOT produced benefits in all of them. Conclusions: According to the studied variables both interventions produce similar improvements. Although, they increase with HPOT possibly due to greater sensory stimulation.(AU)

El objetivo de este trabajo es explorar el efecto postural de la estimulación galvánica vestibular (EGV) en camptocormia. Se trata de una serie de siete casos de pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson y camptocormia que recibieron EGV. La variable resultado fue la flexión frontal del tronco (FFT), evaluada antes, inmediatamente después de la EGV y un mes después, con ojos abiertos y cerrados. También, se valoró la escala de equilibrio de Berg. La FFT después de la EGV presentó una reducción de 2,3 cm inmediatamente después de aplicar el tratamiento (p = 0,091) y de 2,7 cm un minuto después (p = 0,025). De los cinco pacientes que hicieron el seguimiento al mes, en cuatro de ellos se mantuvo el efecto o incluso, mejoró aún más (p = 0,082). No se observaron cambios en la escala de Berg. Nuestros resultados sugieren una mejora aguda en la postura después de una sesión de EGV, que disminuyó significativamente la FFT. La mayoría de los resultados tuvieron una importancia marginal probablemente debido al tamaño de la muestra.(AU)
The objective of this paper is to explore the postural effect of galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) in camptocormia. It is a retrospective case series of 7 Parkinson disease and camptocormia patients. Binaural monopolar GVS was administered. Main outcome variable was trunk forward flexion (TFF), assessed pre and immediately post GVS, and one month after. The TFF was assessed in the standing position, with open and closed eyes. The Berg balance scale was assessed before and 1 month after GVS. The TFF immediately after the GVS showed a reduction of 2.3 cm (p = 0.091) in the first reading, and after a 1-min stance (p = 0.025). Four of 5 patients maintained or even improved this effect a month after (p = 0.082). No changes in Berg balance scale were observed. Our results suggest an acute improvement in posture after one session of GVS, which significantly decreased TFF. Most of the results had a marginal significance due to small sample size.(AU)

OBJECTIVES: The revised European consensus on sarcopenia definition and diagnosis (EWGSOP2) includes the SARC-F questionnaire, the most valid and consistent sarcopenia screening tool, as the mandatory first step. Our aim was the translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and validation of the SARC-F questionnaire as a culturally-responsive Spanish-language version for the European population. STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional descriptive study, applying the two-step WHO methodology for translation and cross-cultural adaptation of health questionnaires, and harmonization with the Mexican-Spanish version. European Union Geriatric Medicine Society recommendations for SARC-F validation in European languages were considered. PARTICIPANTS: Outpatient clinics of a university hospital. INCLUSION CRITERIA: stable, ambulatory (including aids), community-dwelling population ≥65 years old. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The self-reported 5-item SARC-F questionnaire was administered; scores ≥4 indicated sarcopenia. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy-likelihood ratios, predictive values, and kappa statistics were calculated and consecutively compared with European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) and EWGSOP2 criteria. RESULTS: This Spanish version, administered in an average 70s, has adequate internal consistency (Cronbach alpha=0.779). For the validation study, 90 (43.3%) of 208 potentially eligible subjects (81.4 ± 5.9 years old, 75.6% women) were included. SARC-F identified 51 (56.7%) subjects with sarcopenia and 39 (43.3%) without the disease. Prevalence was 17.8% per EWGSOP and 25.6% per EWGSOP2 (58% accuracy and fair agreement: sensitivity, 78.3%; specificity, 50.8%). CONCLUSIONS: SARC-F is a feasible tool, suitable for bedside assessment in community-dwelling older patients. Wide diffusion of this culturally-responsible SARC-F Spanish version is expected as EWGSOP2 is adopted and sarcopenia assessment is broadly implemented in Spain.
