This study aimed to compare active recovery (AR), neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), and foam rolling (FR) in terms of blood lactate (Bla) removal, reduction in delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS), and restoration of muscle strength, endurance, and flexibility in healthy young individuals

Understanding the impact of cognitive impairment and disease severity on activities of daily living in MS patients with different disability levels

Objective: Physical impairments seen in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) affect the level of independence in activities of daily living (ADL). However, physical problems are insufficient to explain some debilitating conditions experienced by PwMS in daily life, especially in activities that require high cognitive ability. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of cognitive impairment and disease severity on ADL in MS patients with different disability levels
