Physiotherapy case reports on three people with progressive supranuclear palsy
Introduction: Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative brain disease that affects patient’s functionality and quality of life. Physiotherapy should be recommended at the time of diagnosis to slow the progression of disability and enhance the quality of life of these patients. Clinical presentation: Here, we describe three cases of patients with PSP, outlining their motor and non-motor symptoms and examining their clinical progression with physiotherapy intervention. During the initial intervention years, a reduction in the number of falls was achieved, along with improvements in gait and balance. Conclusion: Exercise and physiotherapy appear to be beneficial for patients with PSP by enhancing their functionality and quality of life. Controlling or reducing the number of falls should be the primary goal of any intervention for patients with PSP.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Compreender o cérebro no início do século XXI
Nos últimos 20 anos têm-se registado significativos progressos nas tecnologias que permitem estudar o cérebro em maior detalhe. O conhecimento gerado por essas tecnologias tem feito com que se compreendam melhor as funções deste órgão e sejam mais rigorosos os modelos de descrição da função. No presente texto faz-se referência ao que nos parece ser mais importante desta história recente não deixando de fazer algumas referências ao passado para que se entenda a continuidade e efemeridade do pensamento científico
