Abstract Aims: This trial investigates the effects of Sphinx Pose Yoga therapy on psychophysiological outcomes in healthcare professionals (HCPs) suffering from chronic low back pain (CLBP). By examining changes key biomarkers (Substance P, beta-endorphins, and cortisol), this study aims to compare yoga standard care terms improvement intensity, disability, stress levels, quality life. Settings Design: Koohi Goth Women’s Hospital, Randomized Controlled Trial. Subjects Methods: A total 221...
Abstract Background The disability and significant economic costs accredited to Low back pain (LBP) are likely rise which is an essential problem in low middle-income countries like Pakistan. associated factors of LBP age, sex, race including physical activity, high spinal load, lifting, bending, twisting occupations. literature highlighted there substantial differences within available studies developing countries. objective investigate the association demographic lumbar range motion with...
Abstract The purpose of this randomized control trial was to observe the effect nature‐based physical activity in achieving post traumatic growth and estimate combined nature on psychophysiological outcomes. A 3‐month therapy provided participants meeting eligibility criteria receive walk‐in (experimental group) or sit‐in (control 1:1 ratio. At baseline follow‐up, were assessed with Trauma Symptom Checklist 40, Traumatic Stress Scale, Post‐Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), Cortisol,...
This study aimed to evaluate the intrarater and interrater reliability of measuring Achilles tendon (AT) thickness using a digital caliper in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
A cross-sectional study was designed to investigate the frequency of PMS, on 520 subjects selected from University Karachi (mean age 20±1.94).The PMS and menstrual cycle data individuals were collected prism calendar symptom-thermal chart for three consecutive cycles.Based observations, all grouped as control ( 208) patients (312).The (60%) with symptoms include irritability (71.05%), fatigue (86.84%), bowel constipation (36.76%) loose (17.65%), appetite up (42.65%), down (51.47%).Breast...
Background: In the aftermath of trauma, post-traumatic growth is demarcated as a positive change and traumatic stress negative change, which further leads to PTSD. Previous studies have also indicated that both constructs can co-exist. Detailed descriptions reactions are available in literature, but psychophysiological phenomenon still unclear. Studies shown restorative effects nature-based therapy been accounted for reduction increase affect. The purpose designing this randomized control...
Abstract Knee osteoarthritis (OA) significantly impacts the quality of life individuals globally. However, interconnections between Achilles tendon thickness, knee symptoms/functions, and foot alignment remain understudied in OA patients. This study determines relationships thickness (ATT), patients, considering their interconnected biomechanical nature. In a cross-sectional analysis involving 122 injury Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) assessed function symptoms. Forefoot, midfoot,...
The prevalence of chronic low back pain (CLBP) among the Pakistani population is reported to be as high 78%, leading towards different physiological and psychosocial alterations, with worst cases suffering from disabilities. This study protocol will a randomised controlled trial designed compare effectiveness biofeedback surface electromyography (sEMG) for CLBP in population. single-centre conducted on patients into two groups, namely, Group A (intervention group) B (control receive sEMG...
