Objective The aim of this investigation was to compare the thickness deep local muscles in neck region, as well and widespread sensitivity functionality, between individuals with migraine, Tension-Type Headache (TTH), healthy controls. To date, we know that onset migraine TTH share similar pathophysiological pathways. Nevertheless, there may be some anatomical functional differences which would explain why clinicians obtain variable results when treating both pathological entities or equal...

Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) represents a common challenge for athletes and has been focal point of research in sports science. Eccentric exercise, known to induce DOMS, significantly impacts recovery physiological processes. Electromagnetic stimulation, both transcranial peripheral, gained attention medicine due its demonstrated benefits various conditions, offering potential as recovery-enhancing tool athletes. This study aimed evaluate the effects combined peripheral...

Venous and combined malformations are slow-flow haemodynamically inactive lesions that present at birth worsen slowly with advancing age, showing no tendency towards involution. The pathogenesis of vascular anomalies has not been fully elucidated, but their formation progression closely related to angiogenesis. Localized intravascular coagulation associated venous or is characterized by low fibrinogen, high D-dimers, normal platelet count.To assess the relationship angiogenic factors...

Inspiratory muscle fatigue has been shown to have effects on limbs blood flow and physical performance. This study aimed evaluate the influence of an inspiratory protocol respiratory strength, vertical jump performance oxygen saturation in healthy youths. A randomized double-blinded controlled clinical trial, was conducted. Twenty-four participants aged 18–45 years, non-smokers engaged sports activity at least three times a week for minimum one year were enrolled this investigation....

Introduction: To examine the effects of peripheral electromagnetic stimulation in male professional soccer players on markers Delayed Onset Muscular Soreness (DOMS), induced by a protocol exercise (60 min eccentric and plyometric). Methods: A randomized controlled trial with fourty-five aged 22.33 ± 4.82 years participated study. Twenty-three participants were assigned to experimental group (5 stimulations 5 s at 100 HZ 55 rest for total treatment) remaining 22 control group. Pain pressure...

Background: There is a common interest in finding consensus the approach of athletes suffering from DOMS with aim accelerating recovery and thereby enhancing performance. The objective this study was to observe effects paired-associative transcranial peripheral electromagnetic stimulation on young DOMS, induced by 1 h eccentric plyometric exercises. Methods: Forty-eight participated randomized control trial: 13 were assigned group (P); 12 (Cont); 11 (T) included (Comb). Visual Analogue Scale...

Strength-based exercise is widely used to treat tension-type headache, but the evidence of its benefit unclear. This study aims analyze efficacy a strength-based program in patients with chronic headaches.A randomized controlled trial 12-week program, headache. The headache characteristics (which were primary outcomes: frequency, duration, and intensity), cervical muscle thickness at rest or contraction multifidus longus-colli muscle, range motion, pain pressure threshold temporalis, upper...

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the pressure pain threshold and thickness cervical muscles in patients with tension-type headache versus healthy participants. METHODS: An observational, retrospective, cross-sectional conducted at Universidad Europea de Madrid between May June 2022. Adults aged 18–65 years diagnosed for more than 6 months were compared controls. B-mode ultrasound imaging employed measure neck stabilizing muscles, longus colli, multifidus C5 C6 levels,...

Introduction: Inspiratory muscle fatigue has been shown to have effects on the autonomic nervous system and physical condition. This study aimed evaluate influence of an inspiratory protocol respiratory strength heart rate variability in healthy youths. Materials Methods: A randomized controlled clinical trial, employing double-blinding, was conducted with twenty-seven participants aged 18–45 years, non-smokers engaged sports activity at least three times a week for minimum 1 year....

Injury prevention and performance enhancement are paramount goals in sports. Myofascial Pain Syndrome, primarily caused by myofascial trigger points, can result referred pain, stiffness, muscle shortening, weakness. This study aimed to assess the impact of dry needling (DN) on latent points vertical jump female volleyball players.

The fatigue of the inspiratory musculature, particularly diaphragm, has been demonstrated to exert systemic effects on body, impacting cardiovascular and performance outcomes. This study aimed evaluate influence an muscle protocol respiratory strength, functionality, oxygen saturation in older adults. A single-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted twenty-four adults aged over 60 years, who met inclusion criteria were physically independent terms gait functionality....

The aim of this investigation was to compare the thickness deep local muscles in neck region, as well and widespread sensitivity functionality, between individuals with migraine healthy control subjects.An observational study carried out accordance STROBE statements. flexor longus colli multifidus, two neck-stabilizing muscles, were measured using B-mode ultrasound imaging. upper trapezius, masseter, temporalis, anterior tibialis, median nerve all underwent bilateral pressure-pain threshold...

<title>Abstract</title> Background Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) has been extensively studied by scientists and sports teams over the last few decades. Eccentric exercises impact physiology recovery, as shown in recent studies. This study investigates effects of combined transcranial peripheral electromagnetic stimulation on autonomic nervous system 48 young athletes. Participants were divided into four groups: Control (n = 12), Peripheral 13), Transcranial 11), Combined 12). The was...

20567 Background: Taxanes are increasingly used in the treatment of early stage breast cancer (BC). Up to 30% patients develop moderate-severe neurotoxicity during treatment.
