To contrast the static balance in patients presenting diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) with and without polyneuropathy (DPN); to correlate rates from scale Diabetic Neuropathy Examination (DNE) mean ratio of center pressure (CoP).Twenty patients, aged between 40 54, DM2 classified, according DNE scale, groups (n = 10) DPN, were compared. Static was evaluated by means CoP on a Wii Balance Board® under conditions open closed eyes. After normality verification (Shapiro-Wilk), both compared...
Abstract. Introduction: Judo is a high-intensity sport, characterized by series of acyclic movements that require high technical mastery during combat.

We aimed to (i) determine self-reported injury and illness frequency in trail runners 4 weeks preceding competition; (ii) compare athletes with without injury/illness by sex, age, body mass index (BMI) competition distance; (iii) describe mechanism of injury, anatomical region (injury)/organ system (illness) involved, consequences on preparation self-perception severity; (iv) (injury) organ sex. A total 654 (age 36.2, IQR 30.6–43.0; 36.9% females) participated this retrospective...
The factor structure of the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) has rarely been adequately analyzed (e.g., performing principal component analyses rather than factorial approximations). We aimed to evaluate psychometric properties PCS through a variety exploratory and confirmatory approaches.Three hundred ninety-four Chilean patients with musculoskeletal pain were included (age, M = 49.61, SD 18.00; 71.57% women). Eight models proposed analyze data. In addition, validity evidence based on...
Poor sleep quality (SQ) negatively affects pain associated with musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). As the level of economic development a country determines its sanitary conditions, these can influence sleep–pain relationship; therefore, it is relevant to generate evidence in population MSD developing countries. This cross-sectional study sought determine effect poor SQ on Chilean individuals MSD, controlling for sex and duration (in months). Method: A total 228 were included. was measured...
