“…Still, correlations with the MA2 were high, indicating that the SCUES can assess SVMC also in a more heterogeneous group of children with an UMNL. The correlations were slightly higher than those observed between the SCUES and the SHUEE (q ¼ 0.69) [16] or the TASC and the ABILHAND-Kids logit scores (r ¼ 0.596) [5] and comparable to the correlation between the SCUES and the Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test (q¼ À0.80) [17].…”

“…The latter study [17] also showed that SCUES scores were smaller for the affected than the non-affected side (i.e., discriminative validity). Intra-rater and inter-rater reliability has been investigated in both studies [16,17], showing acceptable to excellent intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) values for joints and sum scores. The SCUES has further served to validate a novel SVMC assessgame [18,19].…”

“…It rates SVMC of single-joint movements of shoulder abduction/ adduction, elbow flexion/extension, forearm supination/pronation, wrist flexion/extension, and fingers/thumb (grasp/release) on a 4point ordinal scale and includes similar descriptors. The validity and reliability of these tools have been investigated, for the SCUES in children with unilateral spastic CP [16,17], and for the TASC in children with spastic CP without significant ataxia or dystonia [5]. For example, concurrent validity of the SCUES has been investigated by correlating it with the spontaneous functional analysis section of the SHUEE (Spearman correlation coefficient q¼ À0.69), MACS (q¼ À0.24), and BBT (q¼ À0.47) [16] or with the Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test (q¼ À0.80), and MACS (q¼ À0.78) [17].…”

Purpose: We evaluated the validity and intra-, inter-, and test-retest reliability of the Selective Control of the Upper Extremity Scale (SCUES) sum and item scores in patients with upper motor neuron lesions. Methods: Thirty-one boys and 15 girls (mean age ± SD: 11 years 1 month ± 3 years 9 month) with upper motor neuron lesions participated. We correlated SCUES scores with the range of motion items of the Melbourne Assessment 2 (MA2) and Box and Block Test (BBT) to establish concurrent validity and compared scores between the more and less affected side for discriminative validity. Intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) and smallest detectable changes (SDC) indicated relative and absolute reliability. Results: For the more affected side, SCUES sum scores correlated well with MA2 (q ¼ 0.83) and BBT (q ¼ 0.77), and reliability proved high for intra-rater (ICC ¼ 0.93, SDC ¼ 2.55), inter-rater (ICC ¼ 0.86, SDC ¼ 3.58), and test-retest (ICC ¼ 0.98, SDC ¼ 1.41) reliability. Reliability of single items varied from 0.64 (inter-rater elbow) to 0.98 (intra-rater elbow). Limb and item scores were lower for the more affected side. Conclusion: The SCUES limb and item scores seem valid and reliable in children with upper motor neuron lesions. While future studies should evaluate the responsiveness of the SCUES, we recommend that the same rater should score a patient twice. ä IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION The SCUES assesses selective voluntary motor control and appears valid and reliable in patients with upper motor neuron lesions. Test-retest reliability of the SCUES seems excellent. SCUES single item scores show concurrent validity and acceptable reliability. Limb and item scores are significantly lower for the more affected side.

Background: With the development of technology, remote access exercise interventions are frequently used in older adults. Although different technology methods are used in exercise, studies comparing these methods are limited. Based on this, the aim of the study is to compare the effect of exercise applied with video conference (VC) and video-based home exercise (VBHE) methods on physical performance, skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage, and body mass index (BMI) in older adults. Methods: Thirty older adult individuals between the ages of 65 and 75 years participated in the study. Participants were divided into 2 groups by computer-generated randomization (allocation ratio of 1:1). VC group calisthenic exercises were performed online with the physiotherapist using the WhatsApp program. The VBHE group did the same exercises by watching videos at home. Both programs spanned 6 weeks, 3 times a week. Before and after the intervention, chair sit-stand, 6-minute walk, time up and go, single leg stance, hand grip strength, shoulder flexion strength, and knee extension strength tests were performed on older adults to evaluate their physical performance. For body composition, skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage, and BMI were assessed using the Inbody device. Results: It was observed that in both VC and VBHE groups, physical performance improved statistically significantly compared to the preintervention period (P <.05), while skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage, and BMI did not change (P ˃.05). When the groups were compared, it was concluded that the exercise program implemented with the VC method improved physical performance better than the VBHE method (P <.05), but there was no difference in skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage and BMI values (P ˃.05). Conclusion: It has been observed that a 6-week calisthenic exercise intervention implemented through technology methods such as VC and VBHE is a useful method for the improvement of the physical performance of older adults. However, it was concluded that the VC method is a more effective method than the VBHE method. It is predicted that the lack of improvement in body composition is due to the intensity and duration of exercise.
