  • Movement-Based Priming: A Clinical Trial on the Effect of Cross-Training on Locomotor Abilities of Children with Unilateral Cerebral Palsy

    Open Access•Tamer Mohamed El-Saeed, Ragab K Elnaggar et al.•ARTICLE•Children•2025

    Background: Children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) frequently experience limitations in locomotor abilities, attributable to a complex interplay of factors including muscle weakness and reduced joint mobility. Movement-based priming, such as cross-training (CT), has emerged as a potential intervention to enhance motor function in children with UCP. However, evidence of its efficacy remains limited. Objective: This study aimed to investigat…

  • Optimization of Postural Control, Balance, and Mobility in Children with Cerebral Palsy: A Randomized Comparative Analysis of Independent and Integrated Effects of Pilates and Plyometrics

    Open Access•Ragab K Elnaggar, Rodrigo Ramirez‐campillo et al.•ARTICLE•Children•2024

    The paradigm of comprehensive treatment approaches for children with cerebral palsy has gained traction, prompting clinicians to deliberate between independent and integrated treatment delivery. However, this decision-making process is often hindered by the dearth of empirical evidence available to inform optimal therapeutic strategies. This study, therefore, sought to compare the effects of Pilates-based core strengthening (PsCS), plyometric-bas…

  • Mechanical and Morphological Changes of the Plantar Flexor Musculotendinous Unit in Children with Unilateral Cerebral Palsy Following 12 Weeks of Plyometric Exercise: A Randomized Controlled Trial

    Open Access•Ragab K Elnaggar, Mohammed S Alghamdi et al.•ARTICLE•Children•2022

    To investigate how plyometric exercise (PLYO-Ex) affects mechanics and morphometrics of the plantar flexor musculotendinous unit in children with unilateral cerebral palsy, 38 participants (aged 10-16 years) were allocated at random to either the PLYO-Ex group ( n = 19; received 24 sessions of plyometric muscle loading, conducted 2 times a week for 3 months in succession) or the control group ( n = 19; underwent traditional physical therapy for t…

  • Paretic-Limb-Only Plyometric Training Outperforms Volume-Matched Double-Limb Training for Ameliorating Balance Capability and Gait Symmetry in Adolescents with Unilateral Cerebral Palsy: A Comparative…

    Open Access•Ragab K Elnaggar, Reham H Diab et al.•ARTICLE•Children•2022

    Adolescents with unilateral cerebral palsy (U-CP) experience an asymmetrical posture because the less-affected lower limb is preferred for bodyweight support as a strategy of compensating for the paretic side’s muscular weakness. This study was designed to compare the effect of 12 weeks of paretic-limb-only plyometric training (PLPT) and volume-matched double-limb training (DLPT) on balance capability and gait symmetry in adolescents with U-CP. S…

  • The Association between Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Reported Physical Activity with Sleep Quality in Apparently Healthy Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study

    Open Access•Ahmad Osailan, Ragab K Elnaggar et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    The current study showed no association between CRF and the subjective sleep quality index but demonstrated a moderate inverse association between reported PA and subjective sleep quality index. The findings suggest that the more reported PA, the better the overall sleep quality
