Psychosurgery

Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.
Historical Development of Psychosurgery
In the 1930s, Portuguese neurologist Antonio Egas Moniz introduced a surgical procedure designed...

Background:

Frame Running is an adaptive sport enabling competitive participation for individuals with neuromuscular disorders, particularly cerebral palsy.
It addresses limitations in movement control, offering a unique avenue for athletic engagement.

Purpose of the Study:

To systematically review and critically analyze existing scientific literature on Frame Running for individuals with cerebral palsy.
To synthesize findings on the physical, psychological, and performance impacts of Frame Running.

Main Methods:

Systematic review adhering to PRISMA guidelines.
Inclusion of ten studies examining Frame Running's effects on physical/psychological variables, quality of life, and performance related to impairments.
Study registered with International Prospective Register for Systematic Reviews (CRD42024523358).

Main Results:

Five studies investigated the impact of Functional-Running (Frame Running) on physical, psychological aspects, and quality of life.
Five studies focused on how athletes' impairments influence their Functional-Running performance.
The literature indicates Frame Running's potential benefits but requires further investigation.

Conclusions:

Frame Running is a valuable sport for individuals with cerebral palsy, offering physical and psychological benefits.
Further research, especially in biomechanics, is needed to optimize the frame-athlete interaction and enhance functional rehabilitation.
The growing recognition of functional rehabilitation in Paralympic sports underscores the importance of Frame Running research.
