Article Abstract
Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common causes of disability in children. It is characterized by impairment in motor function and coordination and difficulties in performing daily life activities. Previous research supports that neurologic music therapy (NMT) was effective in improving motor function, cognition, and emotional wellbeing in patients with various neurologic disorders. However, the benefit of NMT in patients with CP have not yet been thoroughly investigated. The aim of this review was to investigate the potential effect of NMT motor rehabilitation techniques for patients.
Materials And Methods: We searched articles published up to May 24, 2022 in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane library, Web of science, and Ovid MEDLINEdatabases. We included studies that investigated the effect of NMT in patients with CP.
Results: After search, 4,117 articles were identified using the search terms. After reading the titles and abstracts, 4,089 articles that did not meet our inclusion criteria were excluded. The remaining 28 articles which were assessed for eligibility. Finally, 15 studies were included in this systematic review. Among 15 studies that investigated the effect of NMT on patients with CP, 7 studies were on rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS), 6 studies were on therapeutic instrumental music performance (TIMP), and 2 studies were on patterned sensory enhancement (PSE).
Conclusions: Various techniques of NMT brings beneficial effects for gross and fine motor improvements in patients with CP. NMT techniques, such as RAS, TIMP, and PSE, may be a potential alternative rehabilitation strategy to enhance gross and fine motor skills for patients with CP.

The use of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors in the clinic has been expanded significantly during the last decade. However, the immunosuppressive effects of JAK inhibitors, via modulation of key innate cellular signaling pathways, can predispose treated patients to infections, and can also result in reduced control of silent infections and increased risk of reactivation of opportunistic infections. Thus, the JAK inhibitor ruxolitinib, approved for the treatment of myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera, has been shown to exerts a proviral activity during infection with different viruses.

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is a leading cause of pain and disability among adults, resulting in structural and functional compromise of synovial joints. Neuromuscular training (NMT) has demonstrated benefits in managing OA; however, its delivery through telerehabilitation remains underexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of NMT delivered via telerehabilitation in patients with primary knee OA.

Introduction: Standardisation of nuclear medicine practice is important for high-quality patient care. Variation in protocols limits the ability to compare results between departments and may reduce confidence in results. The aim of this study was to determine the current extent of variation in gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) protocols in Australian and New Zealand departments of nuclear medicine.

Background: HER2-positive breast cancer accounts for 15-20% of all breast cancers and is characterised by HER2 (also known as ERBB2) amplification. Although HER2-targeted therapies have markedly improved outcomes, current clinical-pathological variables and pathological complete response after neoadjuvant therapy are insufficient to fully capture biological heterogeneity and guide personalised treatment. HER2DX is a genomic test that integrates tumour biology and clinical data to stratify risk.
