During a stroke, a critical disruption occurs in the bloodstream, leading to the sudden cessation of blood flow in a brain artery. This deprivation of oxygen and essential nutrients proves devastating for the brain cells within the affected area. Neurons, the fundamental units of our brain, suffer irreversible damage and, unfortunately, once they perish, they cannot be regenerated or revived. Strokes serve as stark reminders of the brain's vulnerability, underlining the vital importance of recognizing risk factors and seeking immediate medical attention to mitigate the potential long-lasting effects of this medical emergency. #StrokeAwareness #BrainHealth #MedicalEmergency #ActFAST #StrokePrevention #BrainCare #ApolloHospitalsBangalore

This study aimed to analyze the relationship of the respiratory functions, respiratory muscle strength, magnitude of the curvature, angle of trunk rotation and brace-wearing duration in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The results of this study showed that, respiratory functions were normal or mildly affected, and respiratory muscle strengths were weak in AIS. Increased Cobb angle and ATR negatively affected respiratory function; increased ATR was associated with decreased inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength. It is extremely important to carefully evaluate the respiratory system and to know the variables that affect respiratory functions and respiratory muscle strength in achieving optimum recovery in the holistic treatment of individuals with scoliosis.
