title: Home calligraphic exercises as manual dexterity training in patients with Parkinson’s disease: a pilot feasibility study

description: To assess the feasibility and effects on manual dexterity and the quality of life (QoL) of a 12-week home calligraphic training program in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). A pilot study with participants recruited from the Movement Disorders consultation at the Hospital 12 de Octubre (Madrid). The main outcome, manual dexterity, was assessed using the Purdue Pegboard Test (PPT). Secondary outcomes included clinical rating scales that contemplate aspects related to manual dexterity (DextQ-24, UPDRSII, UPDRSIII), and QoL (PDQ-39 and EuroQoL-5D). Thirty PD patients (57% males) with a mean age of 66.11 (9.76) years and 93% adherence rate. The PPT scores improved significantly (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.0001) from T0 (start of the study) to T1 (after 24 weeks). No statistically significant change was found in DextQ-24, UPDRS-II and UPDRS-III, but a clear improvement was observed in the QoL measurement: EuroQoL-5D (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.0001), PDQ-39 (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.0001) and modified PDQ-39 (<i>p</i> = 0.022). This is the first study to demonstrate the feasibility and improvement in hand dexterity assessed by the PPT for patients diagnosed with PD after a 12-week home calligraphic training program. A significant improvement was noted in the QoL measurements, such as the PDQ-39, modified PDQ-39, and EuroQoL-5D.Implications for RehabilitationMost patients with Parkinson’s disease suffer from impaired manual dexterity, making it difficult to perform activities of daily living such as eating, buttoning, or shaving.A 12-week home calligraphic training program could improve hand dexterity in these patients.The advantage of this home calligraphic trainingis is that it is an easy-to-perform, low-cost and no side effects.This training also improves their quality of life.

title: Improving balance in community-dwelling elders using trained volunteers within faith-based institutions: a mixed methods feasibility study

description: To investigate the feasibility and acceptability of a volunteer-led balance programme for older adults. A feasibility cluster RCT with focus groups were conducted in faith-based institutions. Eligibility criteria were: participants were ≥65 years, able to do five times sit -to-stand, had no falls in the previous six months and had good mental capacity. The intervention included supervised group exercises and exercise booklets for six months, education and a fall poster. Assessments included, TUG, MCTSiB, FTST, FES, mABC, OPQoL and DGLS at baseline, 6 weeks, and 6 months. Feasibility measures included numbers of volunteers, sessions, and volunteers” time commitment, views of participants about sustainability of program using qualitative focus groups and volunteers' ability to deliver programme. Three churches participated with 31 participants in each group. Participants had a mean age of 77.3 years, were 100% British, and 79% female. The sample size estimate for a future trial using TUG, was 79 per group. Focus groups showed perceived social and physical improvements in participants, need to extend the programme to the wider community, and increased confidence, participation and socialisation. The community-based balance training in faith-based institutions, was feasible and acceptable in one geographical area and requires evaluation in cohesive diverse communities.Implications for RehabilitationIf an institution or a community is united through faith, culture, national roots, or tradition, then these groups are ideal for such balance rehabilitation programmes, because of the familiarity of the location and people, cohesive culture or their ideology to help their communities.Participants and volunteers perceived improved participation, confidence and socialisation and were keen to continue programme.It is important to develop community-based falls prevention programmes that the National Health Service (NHS) can partially support using volunteers to reduce the burden of falls in the community and for the NHS.

title: Structural Power Dynamics in Polycentric Water Governance Networks

description: Water security is severely threatened by climate change. Building resilient catchments is key to reduce water insecurity, yet power dynamics that generate ineffective governance responses can hinder such resilience building. This research uses an Australian water governance process to study the power dynamics that underpin polycentric governance networks. Combining network theory and Lukes’ structural power concept is a novel methodology tested for its suitability to investigate structural power. We conducted a Social Network Analysis to identify dominant and marginalized stakeholders and validated the results with interview data. Our findings suggest that combining network theory and Lukes’ structural power concept is a useful methodology to identify power dynamics that manifest in polycentric governance structures. This research adds to the methodological foundations of power-related social network research and exemplifies how structural power dynamics, like control over information use, influence the effectiveness of polycentric governance processes and impact desired outcomes like catchment resilience.

title: By the Book: Examining California’s Private Forest Regulations from the Perspectives of Family Forest Landowners

description: Private forest land policies in the U.S. differ by state and range from regulatory to non-regulatory. The state of California has a highly regulatory policy system to ensure sustainable forest management, and the state’s family forest landowners, who hold 20% of the state’s forests, navigate this regulatory system to achieve their management objectives. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 33 family forest landowners to better understand their perceptions of state forest policies, including the policies’ efficacy and how they impact landowner behavior. We found that participants voiced general acceptance of California’s forest policies, though they described significant concerns because of financial burdens and regulatory uncertainty. They had nuanced views regarding how the policies protect public trust resources and private property rights, suggesting that landowners’ public responsibilities and private rights are not always at odds.
