SMA II

Cerebral Palsy

The subjects will be treated with paracetamol in therapeutic doses, 15mg/kg/dose every six hour, with a maximum dosage of 1 g x 4 per day, for three consecutive days.

Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Treatment With Paracetamol in Children and Adults With Spinal Muscular Atrophy and Cerebral Palsy

- Clearance (total, glucuronidation, sulphation, CYP2E1 oxidation and unchanged) of paracetamol in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with either SMA or CP

- Clearance (total paracetamol) of paracetamol in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with either SMA or CP

- Clearance (glucuronidation) of paracetamol in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with either SMA or CP

- Clearance (sulphation) of paracetamol in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with either SMA or CP

- Clearance (CYP2E1 oxidation) of paracetamol in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with either SMA or CP

- Clearance (unchanged paracetamol) of paracetamol in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with either SMA or CP

- Volume of distribution of paracetamol in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with SMA or CP, in comparison with healthy controls.

- Liver function tests in patients with SMA, CP and ICU-admitted patients with SMA or CP.: ALT, AST, LDH, Alkaline Phosphatase, Bilirubin (U/L)

- Concentration-time data on plasma paracetamol, paracetamol-sulphate, paracetamol-glucuronide, paracetamol-cysteine and paracetamol-mercapturate (oxidative metabolites), plasma-glutathione and liver biomarkers (ALAT, PP, bilirubin, MicroRNA-122 (miR-122)).

Physical exercises were performed during HD sessions, at second hour of HD, three times per week for 3 months (36 sessions). The patients remained seated while performing the exercises that were performed in both lower limbs. Ankle-cuffs and elastic bands (Theraband®, Akron-OH, USA) were used for performed the exercises. The physical exercises consisted of four different exercises and they were administered by a physical therapist following the adapted protocol.

Chronic Kidney Disease

Hypertension

Diabetes

Physical exercises were performed during HD sessions, at second hour of HD, three times per week for 3 months. The first exercise was knee extension from 90° to 0°. The patient remained in the 0° position for 5 seconds (an isometric contraction) and then returned to the starting position (90º). 2) The second exercise consisted of a triple flexion followed by extension of the lower limbs. The patient flexed the thigh, knee and ankle (elastic band placed at the level of the metacarpals) followed by a double extension of the thigh and knee. 3) In a co-isometric contraction, the patient performed a leg extension against the ankle-cuff resistance (located under the distal third of the leg at the level of the malleolus) for 10 seconds. 4) The patient performed a unilateral hip joint flexion of the lower limb with the knee extended by rising to their functional limit.
