Efcacy of integrating a semi-immersive virtual device in the HABIT-ILE intervention for children with unilateral cerebral palsy: a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial
2023, HE Léonard de VinciHE Louvain en HainautArticle scientifiqueBackground The implementation of virtual devices can facilitate the role of therapists (e.g., patient motivation, intensity of practice) to improve the effectiveness of treatment for children with cerebral palsy. Among existing therapeutic devices, none has been specifically designed to promote the application of principles underlying evidence-based motor skill learning interventions. Consequently, ... -
Brain activation changes following motor training in children with unilateral cerebral palsy: An fMRI study
mai 2021, HE Léonard de VinciArticle scientifiqueBackground Intensive motor-learning-based interventions have demonstrated efficacy for improving motor function in children with unilateral spastic cerebral palsy (USCP). Although this improvement has been associated mainly with neuroplastic changes in the primary sensori-motor cortices, this plasticity may also involve a wider fronto-parietal network for motor learning. Objective To determine ... -

Motor Skill Training May Restore Impaired Corticospinal Tract Fibers in Children With Cerebral Palsy
2020, HE Léonard de VinciArticle scientifiqueBackground. In children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP), the fibers of the corticospinal tract (CST) emerging from the lesioned hemisphere are damaged following the initial brain injury. The extent to which the integrity of these fibers is restorable with training is unknown. Objective. To assess changes in CST integrity in children with UCP following Hand-and-Arm-Bimanual-Intensive-Therapy-I ... -

18 septembre 2024, HE de la Province de LiègeArticle scientifiqueThe much-needed energy transition brings special focus on fuel cell micro-combined Heat and Power (mCHP or micro-CHP) systems for residential uses, one of which is a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC), fed by natural gas, designed to provide continuously 1.5 kWel with an associated amazingly high expected Low heating Value (LHV) electrical efficiency of 60%. This power output can be modulated as desired ... -
Mirror movements after bimanual intensive therapy in children with unilateral cerebral palsy: a randomized controlled trial
30 avril 2022, HE Léonard de VinciHE Louvain en HainautArticle scientifiqueAim: To investigate potential changes in mirror movements after Hand and Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremity (HABIT-ILE) training in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (CP). Method: Thirty-one children with unilateral CP (mean age 9 years 4 months, SD 4 years 3 months; range 5 years 4 months-17 years 3 months; 14 females, 17 males) were randomized to either a control or ... -
Genetic control of root morphology in response to nitrogen across rapeseed diversity
01 mai 2024, HE CondorcetArticle scientifiqueAbstract : "Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is an oil-containing crop of great economic value but with considerable nitrogen requirement. Breeding root systems that efficiently absorb nitrogen from the soil could be a driver to ensure genetic gains for more sustainable rapeseed production. The aim of this study is to identify genomic regions that regulate root morphology in response to nitrate availability. ... -
Characterisation of bitter vetch (Vicia ervilia (L.) Willd) ecotypes: An ancient and promising legume
12 septembre 2024, HE CondorcetArticle scientifiqueAbstract : "Bitter vetch (Vicia ervilia (L.) Willd) is a promising legume, drought tolerant, mainly used in the Mediterranean area for its grains as a source of proteins in animal feed. However, it is an underused crop cultivated in marginal soils. Ecological, agro-morphological, and bromatological diversity evaluations were conducted to study its reintroduction potential. Seeds of seventeen ecotypes ... -
