Objectives: To study the effect of additional strengthening hip abductor and lateral rotator muscles in a quadriceps exercise rehabilitation programme for patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome. Design: Randomized controlled pilot trial. Setting: Clinical setting home programme. Participants: Fourteen Intervention: The subjects were randomly assigned to intervention group (strengthening plus muscles) or control quadriceps). Both groups participated six-week protocol. Main outcome...
Objective The aim of this study was to verify how a pair monozygotic twins would respond light-emitting diode therapy (LEDT) or placebo combined with strength-training program during 12 weeks. Design This case-control enrolled male twins, allocated randomly LEDT therapies. Light-emitting applied from flexible array (λ = 850 nm, total energy 75 J, t 15 seconds) both quadriceps femoris muscles each twin immediately after strength training session (3 times/wk for weeks) consisting leg press and...
Introduction Biomechanical assessment of trabecular bone microarchitecture contributes to the evaluation fractures risk associated with osteoporosis and plays a crucial role in planning preventive strategies. One most widely clinical technics used for diagnosis by health professionals is dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). However, doubts about its accuracy motivate introduction congruent technical analysis such as calcaneal ultrasonometry (Quantitative Ultrasonometry - QUS). Methods...
Introduction Brazil is a developing and an Upper Middle Income, categorized by the World Bank. Therefore, it country that needs special vision for children with oncological diseases who require Pediatric Palliative Care. This study aimed to understand specificities of services provide oncology in comparison those do not care. Methods descriptive, cross-sectional, online survey study. A questionnaire was created multidisciplinary group leaders from Brazilian Care Network then distributed...
This study presents an innovative and original biomaterial designed to substitute for articular cartilage mimic its mechanical behavior, including elastic cushioning the characteristics of fiber-reinforced gel. The material was composed polyurethane bioglass microfiber 45S5. It present a tribological surface tibial plateau, convert over functional gradient osteointegrable region self-anchorage subchondral bone. samples showed no toxicity promoted cell spreading. Subsequent in vivo studies...
Métodos de armazenamento aloenxertos podem alterar certas características mecânicas dos tecidos. Com o objetivo analisar a influência do fenômeno congelamento e tempo sobre as propriedades biomecânicas tendões, os autores estudaram 40 tendões calcâneos obtidos 20 cadáveres humanos com idade média 41,95 anos, variando 31 54 sendo 17 sexo masculino três feminino. De cada cadáver foram retirados dois que um foi testado fresco contralateral congelado - 85º C em freezer elétrico, durante período...
The bone fracture is important public health problems. lasertherapy used to accelerate tissue healing. Regarding diagnosis, few methods are validated follow the evolution of microarchitecture. aim this study was evaluate effects on repair with x-ray microtomography (μCT) and histomorphometry. A transverse rat tibia osteotomy a Kirchner wire 2mm width polymeric spacer beads were produce delayed union. Twelve rats divided into two groups: (i) Control Group: untreated and; (ii) Laser treated...
Abstract Introduction In Brazil, a country of continental dimensions, the lack services in different regions is major barrier that prevents patients from accessing Pediatric Palliative Care (PPC). If PPC already challenging, end-of-life care for these may also be difficult. Therefore, this study based on recent mapping effort, aimed at reflecting children Brazil. Method Descriptive, cross-sectional study, and online survey research, larger Network. Results The final sample comprised 90...
The leucocyte and platelet‐rich fibrin (L‐PRF) is a potential tool to investigate the effects attributed platelet concentrates. Although able stimulate tissue repair, there are no reports regarding its antibacterial activity. To evaluate action of exudate extracted from L‐PRF in vitro , blood samples 10 male volunteers (ages 18–24) were centrifuged clot activator tubes. clots shaken vigorously after 1 6 hours activation for extraction exudate. Platelet (PLA), (LEU) erythrocyte (ERY) counting...
