Effectiveness of Task-specific Training with Trunk Restraint on Lower Extremity Recovery in Stroke Patients
Abstract: Background: Stroke is considered as one of the major causes of impairments in activities of daily living. The majority of patients after stroke demonstrate excessive compensatory trunk deviation movement during activities of daily living. This compensatory trunk movement limits recovery of the lower extremity. Task-specific training is an effective intervention to improve recovery of the upper extremity. However, there was not much evidence about the effectiveness of task-specific training with …

Early Postoperative Outcome of Primary Closure versus T-Tube Drainage of Common Bile Duct after Open Choledocholithotomy
Abstract: Background: Choledocholithiasis is the formation of stones in the common bile duct (CBD). These stones are removed by performing CBD exploration and the closure can be done over T-tube or primarily without T-tube. The method of T-tube drainage comes with many complications and hence, nowadays, there is tendency to close CBD primarily to avoid the tube-related complications. Aims: To compare the early postoperative outcome of primary closure versus T-tube drainage …
