Abstract Background As the primary treatment for adhesive capsulitis, intensive and accurate home exercise is as important as physical therapy in hospitals. Augmented reality (AR)-based telerehabilitation has been implemented recently in various musculoskeletal conditions to increase patient compliance and enable patients to exercise with the correct posture. The objective of this study is to present a protocol for investigating the additive effect of interactive AR-based telerehabilitation in comparison with the usual care for patients with adhesive capsulitis. Methods This study presents the protocol of a prospective, multi-center, single-blinded, two-armed randomized controlled trial (RCT). One hundred patients with stage I or II adhesive capsulitis will be recruited at the physical medicine and rehabilitation clinic. Patients will be randomly divided into two groups with 1:1 allocation. The intervention group will receive 3 months of hospital-based physical therapy in conjunction with home-based telerehabilitation. The control group will receive 3 months of hospital-based physical therapy in conjunction with a home-based exercise described in a brochure provided by the hospital. The primary outcome will be the change in passive range of motion (ROM) of the affected shoulder joint from baseline to 12 weeks after baseline assessment. The secondary outcomes will be active ROM, pain measured with the numeric rating scale, shoulder pain and disability index, 36-Item Short Form Survey, EuroQoL-5D-5L, and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure. Discussion This will be the first RCT study protocol to investigate the effect of telerehabilitation in patients with adhesive capsulitis. The result of this RCT will determine whether AR-based telerehabilitation is more effective than a brochure-based home exercise program and will provide evidence of the usefulness of “telerehabilitation” using hardware (IoT) and software (monitoring platform) technologies to develop “digital therapeutics” for the future. Trial registration This trial was retrospectively registered at the Clinicaltrials.gov website on 20 March 2020, with the identifier NCT04316130.

Abstract: Tooth loss which is often found among elderly may cause problems in mastication. Chewing efficiency may decrease if the elderly do not replace the function of the missing teeth by using dentures. This can further affect their nutritional intake and nutritional status. This study was aimed to explore scientific information regarding differences in elderly nutritional status of removable denture wearers and non-denture wearers. This was a literature review study by searching data on three databases, namely Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar using keywords and a combination of boolean operators. After being selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, a critical appraisal was performed, and 10 literatures were obtained consisting of cross-sectional, cohort, and randomized controlled trial design studies. The results showed that the percentage of the elderly with normal nutritional status was higher in denture wearers than in non-denture wearers. There was an increase in nutritional status based on MNA and MNA-SF scores in the elderly after wearing removable dentures. Among elderly, the nutritional status of denture wearers was relatively at risk of malnutrition, while of non-denture wearers was at risk of malnutrition and experienced malnutrition. In conclusion, risk of malnutrition and the occurrence of malnutrition are greater in non-denture wearer elderly.Keywords: nutritional status; elderly; tooth loss; denture wearers; removable dentures  Abstrak: Kehilangan gigi yang banyak ditemukan pada lansia dapat menyebabkan timbulnya gangguan dalam pengunyahan. Efisiensi kunyah dapat menurun bila lansia tidak menggantikan fungsi gigi asli yang hilang dengan menggunakan gigi tiruan. Hal tersebut dapat berpengaruh terhadap asupan nutrisi dan status gizi lansia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menelaah mengenai perbedaan status gizi pada lansia pengguna dan bukan pengguna gigi tiruan lepasan. Jenis penelitian ialah suatu literature review dengan pencarian data pada tiga database yaitu Pubmed, ScienceDirect, dan Google Scholar menggunakan kata kunci dan kombinasi boolean operator. Setelah diseleksi berdasarkan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi, dilakukan critical appraisal, dan didapatkan 10 literatur dengan desain studi cross sectional, cohort, dan randomized controlled trial. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan persentase lansia dengan status gizi normal lebih besar ditemukan pada lansia pengguna gigi tiruan daripada lansia bukan pengguna gigi tiruan. Terdapat peningkatan status gizi berdasarkan skor MNA dan MNA-SF pada lansia setelah pemakaian gigi tiruan lepasan. Status gizi lansia pengguna gigi tiruan relatif berisiko malnutrisi, sedangkan pada lansia bukan pengguna gigi tiruan berisiko malnutrisi dan mengalami malnutrisi. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah risiko malnutrisi dan terjadinya malnutrisi lebih besar ditemukan pada lansia bukan pengguna gigi tiruan.Kata kunci: status gizi, lansia; kehilangan gigi; pengguna gigi tiruan; gigi tiruan lepasan
