Effect of Combination of Regenerative Medicine and Rehabilitation on Motor Function of Neurological Diseases: A Scoping Review / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

Objective To perform a scoping review of the combination of regenerative therapy and rehabilitation in neurological diseases. Methods Literatures about the combination of regenerative therapy and rehabilitation in neurological diseases were retrieved in PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang data from establishment to April 1st, 2021. Results A total of 2567 literatures were retrieved, and 26 were finally enrolled, including three human clinical studies and 23 animal basic studies. The research design was mainly randomized or non-randomized controlled trials and case series. The researches mainly involved the therapeutic effect of combined regeneration therapy and rehabilitation on neurological diseases, such as stroke, spinal cord injury and cerebral palsy, etc. Conclusion The researches and applications of regenerative rehabilitation in neurological diseases were scoped, and it was found that the combination of regenerative therapy and rehabilitation has synergistic effects on the restoration of motor function of neurological diseases, and more scientific researches are needed to support its clinical practice in the future.
