Study Design Randomized controlled trial. Background Evidence suggests that multimodal interventions include exercise therapy may be effective for patellofemoral pain (PFP); however, no study has investigated the effects of trigger point (TrP) dry needling (DN) in people with PFP. Objectives To compare adding TrP DN to a manual and program on pain, function, disability individuals Methods Individuals PFP (n = 60) recruited from public hospital Valencia, Spain were randomly allocated...
Understanding the functional status of people with Alzheimer Disease (AD), both in a single (ST) and cognitive dual task (DT) activities is essential for identifying signs early-stage neurodegeneration. This study aims to compare performance quality several tasks using sensors embedded an Android device, among at different stages without dementia. The secondary aim analyze effect on mobility tasks.This cross-sectional including 22 participants control group (CG), 18 mild AD moderate AD. They...
Background: Tension-type headache (TTH) is a disease with great incidence on quality of life and significant socioeconomic impact. Objectives: The aim this review to determine the effectiveness physical therapy by using manual (MT) for relief TTH. Data sources: A was done identifying randomized controlled trials through searches in MEDLINE, PEDro, Cochrane CINAHL (January 2002 - April 2012). Study selection: English-language studies, adult patients number subjects not under 11, diagnosed...
In the university context, assessing students' attitude, knowledge and opinions when applying an innovative methodological approach to teach professional ethics becomes fundamental know if used is enough motivating for students.To assess effect of a blended-learning model, based on related clinical practices, physiotherapy towards learning ethics.A simple-blind trial was performed (NLM identifier NCT03241693) (control group, n = 64; experimental 65). Both groups followed practices 8 months....
Objective: To determine the efficacy of suboccipital inhibitory techniques in people with migraine compared a control treatment based on myofascial trigger point (MTrP) therapy and stretching. Design: A randomized, double-blind controlled pilot trial was conducted. Settings/Location: University research laboratory. Subjects: Forty-six adults diagnosed over 6 months duration. Interventions: Participants were randomized to receive either combined MTrP stretching (control group) or plus soft...
Isolated manual therapy techniques (MT) have shown beneficial effects in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) but the effect of combination such techniques, together well-stablished splint (ST) remains to be elucidated.This study was conducted ascertain whether a combined program MT including intraoral treatment, plus traditional ST improves pain and clinical dysfunction subjects TMD.A preliminary trial conducted. 16 participants were assigned either ST-Experimental Group (EG, n =...
Physiotherapy is used as a non-pharmacological treatment for migraine. However, controversy exists over whether articulatory manual techniques are effective in some aspects related to migraine.To assess the effectiveness of therapy protocol based on pain intensity, frequency episodes, migraine disability, quality life, medication intake and self-reported perceived change after patients.Randomized controlled trial.Fifty individuals with were randomized into experimental group, which received...
The main goal of this cross-sectional study was to detect whether women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) have altered postural control and the sensory contribution control. We also explored possibility that self-induced anxiety lower limb strength may be related For purpose, 129 within an age range 40 70 years were enrolled. Eighty enrolled had FMS. Postural variables, such as Ellipse, Root mean square (RMS) Sample entropy (SampEn), in both directions (i.e. mediolateral anteroposterior),...
The primary objective of this study was to explore the mechanisms and conditions whereby Tension-Type Headache (TTH) presenteeism relates health-related loss productivity as a result both reduced physical mental health. To end, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) used conduct secondary data analysis randomized clinical trial involving 78 Tension-type patients. results showed that TTH did not directly relate productivity, either due physical, or health problems. However, through anxiety-state,...
