INTRODUCTION: Recent studies have related the climacteric period with changes in connective tissue elasticity that may be related to diastasis recti abdominis. Mat Pilates is a method of exercise without impact that currently has more practitioners, due to its satisfactory results. However, there are no studies that evaluate the effectiveness of mat Pilates for women with diastasis recti abdominis. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of the mat Pilates program in climacteric women with diastasis recti abdominis. METHODS: This randomized single-blinded clinical trial evaluated climacteric women with diastasis recti abdominis. The participants were randomized into the experimental group, which participated in 3 weekly sessions of mat Pilates for 12 weeks for a total of 36 sessions, and the control group (without exercises). The inter-rectus distance was measured with a digital caliper. The G*Power Version 3.1.9.2. software was used for the sample calculation, and the SPSS 20.0 program was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: The study comprised 21 women, including 10 in the control group and 11 in the experimental group, with mean ages of 54.3 ± 7.1 and 55.3 ± 6.0 years and body mass index values of 28.8 ± 5.5 kg/m2 and 29.9 ± 4.48 kg/m2, respectively. In the experimental group, reductions were observed in all the measures related to diastasis recti abdominis (p<0.05) in the supraumbilical, umbilical, and infra-umbilical regions. CONCLUSION: The mat Pilates method is effective for reducing diastasis recti abdominis in the climacteric period.

RESUMEN Introducción: Las lesiones musculares del dorsal ancho (DA) son poco comunes y se producen casi exclusivamente en atletas de alto nivel competitivo. Hasta la fecha, no encontramos reportes de casos similares que describan de manera detallada el proceso de rehabilitación. El objetivo de este reporte de caso es describir la evaluación y el tratamiento kinésico de una atleta de élite de CrossFit en un consultorio privado de kinesiología. Presentación del caso: Una paciente femenina de 28 años, atleta de élite de CrossFit, sufrió una lesión muscular del DA durante una competencia. Se realizó una ecografía 72 h después, la cual confirmó la lesión. El tratamiento kinésico posterior fue activo y se basó principalmente en la progresión de diferentes ejercicios terapéuticos. Se realizaron diversas evaluaciones para monitorear la adaptación de la atleta (fuerza isométrica del DA, cuestionarios autorreportados y valoración funcional de la extremidad superior). Conclusión: La óptima progresión de los ejercicios durante el tratamiento, junto con una comunicación fluida entre la atleta, el entrenador y el kinesiólogo, permitió una vuelta a los entrenamientos diarios con el mismo nivel de cargas, intensidad y volumen que tenía previamente. La paciente regresó a la competencia a los 45 días del alta kinésica.
ABSTRACT Introduction: Latissimus dorsi (LD) muscle injuries are rare and primarily occur in high-level competitive athletes. To date, no similar case reports detailing the rehabilitation process have been found. The objective of this case report is to describe the assessment and physical therapy treatment of an elite CrossFit athlete at a private physical therapy clinic. Case presentation: A 28-year-old female patient, an elite CrossFit athlete, suffered an LD muscle injury during a competition. An ultrasound performed 72 h later confirmed the injury. Subsequent physical therapy treatment was active and primarily focused on the progression of various therapeutic exercises. Several assessments were conducted to monitor the athlete's adaptation (LD isometric strength test, self-reported questionnaires, and functional assessment to the upper extremity). Conclusion: The optimal progression of exercises during treatment, along with fluid communication among the athlete, coach, and physiotherapist, allowed a return to daily training with the same level of loads, intensity, and volume as before the injury. The patient returned to competition 45 days after discharge from physiotherapy.

INTRODUCTION: Hospitalization often causes mobility difficulties and hinders daily activities. Progressive mobilization of patients in intensive care units (ICUs) is safe and linked to better clinical and functional outcomes. OBJECTIVE: To assess the perception of a multidisciplinary team in the ICUs of a university hospital regarding early mobilization (EM). METHODS: A prospective observational study was conducted using data collected from professionals and students in the ICU of Clementino Fraga Filho University Hospital at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro between June and December 2019. Data on EM perception were collected using a questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and Fisher's exact tests were used to analyze the differences between the professional categories. RESULTS: In comparison to physiotherapists (88%), a smaller percentage of physicians (37.5%) and nurses (50%) reported that patients on mechanical ventilation (MV) are mobilized within 48 hours (P80%), with the main perceived barriers being the availability of professionals (58%), the clinical condition of patients (55%), and patients undergoing procedures (45%). CONCLUSION: In a university hospital without an established EM protocol, the multidisciplinary team showed satisfactory knowledge and perceptions of EM. However, creating institutional protocols and guidelines is essential to engage multidisciplinary teams in implementing EM and overcoming barriers.
INTRODUÇÃO: A hospitalização frequentemente causa dificuldades de mobilidade e compromete as atividades da vida diária. A mobilização progressiva de pacientes em unidades de terapia intensiva (UTI) é segura e está associada a melhores resultados clínicos e funcionais. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a percepção da equipe multiprofissional das UTIs de um hospital universitário quanto à mobilização precoce (MP). MÉTODOS: Foi realizado um estudo prospectivo e observacional com dados coletados de profissionais e estudantes da UTI do Hospital Universitário Clementino Fraga Filho da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro entre junho e dezembro de 2019. Os dados sobre a percepção da MP foram coletados por meio de questionário. A estatística descritiva e o teste exato de Fisher foram utilizados para analisar as diferenças entre categorias profissionais. RESULTADOS: Em comparação aos fisioterapeutas (88%), um percentual menor de médicos (37,5%) e enfermeiros (50%) relataram que os pacientes em ventilação mecânica (VM) são mobilizados em 48 horas (P80%), sendo as principais barreiras percebidas a indisponibilidade de profissionais (58%), a condição clínica (55%) e pacientes submetidos a procedimentos (45%). CONCLUSÃO: Em um hospital universitário sem protocolo de MP estabelecido, a equipe multidisciplinar apresenta percepção satisfatória sobre a MP. Contudo, a criação de protocolos e diretrizes institucionais é essencial para engajar a equipe na implementação da MP e na superação de barreiras.

BACKGROUND:Lower limb peri-knee muscle strength training and neuromuscular electrical stimulation are generally safe and effective rehabilitation methods for patellofemoral joint pain,but the mechanism of their intervention is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To determine the effect of muscle strength training combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on pain,lower extremity function and biomechanical characteristics in patients with patellofemoral pain. METHODS:Thirty-seven patients with patellofemoral pain were randomly divided into muscle strength training combined with electrical stimulation group(trial group,n=19)and muscle strength training group(control group,n=18).Both groups underwent intervention training for 6 weeks,three times a week.The visual analog scale and anterior knee pain scale were used to evaluate the pain level and functional level of the knee.Kinematic and kinetics data during running were collected by using an infrared motion capture system and a three-dimensional force platform simultaneously.A two-way analysis of variance with repeated measures(group*time)was applied to analyze the data. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)After the intervention,the visual analog scale scores of the trial group and the control group were significantly decreased(P<0.001),and the anterior knee pain scale scores were significantly increased(Ptrial group<0.001,Pcontrol group=0.001)in the trial group and control group.The anterior knee pain scale scores of the trial group were significantly higher compared to the control group after the intervention(P=0.001).(2)The peak knee flexion angle(P=0.011),peak knee extension moment(P<0.001),the peak knee internal rotation moment(P=0.008),the peak patellofemoral stress(P<0.001)and the peak patellofemoral contact force(P<0.001)were significantly decreased in the trial and control groups during running after the intervention compared with those before the intervention.(3)In conclusion,both muscle strength training and muscle strength training combined with electrical stimulation training are helpful to improve the subjective pain and lower limb function of patellofemoral pain patients,enhance the movement pattern during running and reduce the stress of the patellofemoral joint.Compared with muscle strength training alone,muscle strength training combined with electrical stimulation can improve lower limb function more significantly.

OBJECTIVE:Exercise intervention is one of the main treatments for fibromyalgia,but there is no consistent conclusion on the choice of different exercise modalities.In this article,a network Meta-analysis was used to comprehensively and quantitatively evaluate the effects of different exercise modalities on fibromyalgia syndrome. METHODS:PubMed,EMbase,Scoups,The Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CNKI,WanFang Database,and China Biomedical Literature Database were searched for relevant literature,with a search timeframe from the establishment of each database to June 2023.The outcome indicators included five continuous variables,including fibromyalgia impact questionnaire-revised(FIQ)scores,visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,quality of life,quality of sleep,and depression.The Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool was used to evaluate the quality of the included literature.RevMan 5.4 software was used to perform effect sizes,subgroup analyses,and sensitivity analyses of the data.Stata 17 software was used to perform reticulation and network Meta-analysis of the data. RESULTS:A total of 13 articles with 14 randomized controlled trials were finally included.The overall methodological quality of the literature was high.The results of traditional Meta-analysis showed that,compared with the control group,exercise therapy significantly improved the FIQ score[standardized mean difference(SMD)=-0.67,95％confidence interval(CI):-0.83 to-0.50,P<0.01],VAS score(SMD=-0.72,95％CI:-0.90 to-0.54,P<0.01),quality of life(SMD=1.03,95％CI:0.45 to 1.61,P=0.000 5),sleep quality(SMD=-0.62,95％CI:-0.98 to-0.25,P=0.001),and depression(SMD=-0.63,95％CI:-1.09 to-0.18,P=0.007).Network Meta-analysis showed that the probability of optimal intervention effect of exercise modalities on FIQ scores was ranked as:mind-body exercise(86.5)>resistance exercise(70.5)>aerobic exercise(41.7);the probability of optimal intervention effect of exercise modalities on VAS scores was ranked as:resistance exercise(85.3)>mind-body exercise(74.3)>aerobic exercise(34.5). CONCLUSION:Exercise therapy significantly improves FIQ scores,VAS scores,quality of life,sleep quality,and depression in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome.Mind-body exercise and resistance exercise are the most effective exercise modalities to reduce FIQ scores and VAS scores in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome.

Objective:To investigate the improvement effect of acupuncture combined with early rehabilitation training on clinical efficacy, traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score, and neurological and motor functions of patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods:A total of 76 patients with acute cerebral infarction who received treatment in the Department of Neurology at Jinhua Municipal Central Hospital from June 2019 to June 2022 were included in this prospective study. These patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group using the random number table method, with 38 patients in each group. The control group received early rehabilitation training, while the observation group received acupuncture combined with early rehabilitation training. The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. Pre- and post-treatment traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores and neurological and motor functions were compared between the two groups.Results:The overall response rate in the observation group was 89.47% (34/38), which was significantly higher than 67.59% (25/38) in the control group ( Z = 2.41, P = 0.016). After treatment, the scores of hemiplegia, mouth and eye deviation, and speech difficulty in both groups were significantly decreased compared with before treatment, and the observation group showed a greater degree of decline in these indices than the control group ( t = 4.73, P < 0.001; t = -10.58, P < 0.001; t = 6.42, P < 0.001). After treatment, the neurological deficit scale scores in each group were decreased compared with before treatment, and the observation group showed a greater degree of decline compared with the control group ( t = -7.33, P < 0.001). After treatment, the Fug-Meyer motor function scale and Barthel index scores in each group were significantly increased compared with before treatment, and the observation group showed a greater degree of increases compared with the control group ( t = 3.72, P < 0.001; t = -5.02, P < 0.001). After treatment, the bare hand muscle strength scores of the core muscles in both groups of patients were increased compared with before treatment, and the observation group showed a greater improvement compared with the control group ( t = 3.31, P < 0.001). Conclusion:Acupuncture combined with rehabilitation training can enhance clinical efficacy, improve traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores, enhance neurological and motor functions, and strengthen core muscle strength in patients with acute cerebral infarction. This treatment approach is worthy of being further promoted in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of task-oriented exercise training for hospitalized elderly diabetic patients.Methods:This study is a parallel randomized controlled trial with a positive control and a single-blinded assessor.From July 2020 to July 2021, we included 84 elderly patients with type 2 diabetes who were hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology at Beijing Hospital.These patients were randomly divided into two groups: the task-oriented exercise training group(TOE group)and the regular exercise training group(regular group). The TOE group participants were trained using a task-oriented exercise program that was specifically developed by our research team.On the other hand, the regular group participants were trained using a classical program that comprised of all exercise modes.Each subject received individualized exercise training for 10 consecutive days while staying in the hospital.We evaluated the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of the training programs by measuring the physical fitness of the participants, assessing the feasibility of the program, and monitoring any exercise-related adverse events that occurred.Results:A total of 79 subjects completed the entire intervention and follow-up period, with 40 subjects in the TOE group and 39 subjects in the regular group.In terms of efficacy, both groups showed improvement in their physical fitness indexes after the intervention, with no significant differences in the degree of improvement between the two groups(all P>0.05). When considering feasibility, the TOE group had a higher proportion of prospective feasibility at 87.5%(35 out of 40)compared to the regular group at 71.8%(28 out of 39). Similarly, the TOE group had a higher proportion of practical feasibility at 75.0%(30 out of 40)compared to the regular group at 53.8%(21 out of 39). The TOE group showed a significant advantage in practical feasibility between the two groups( χ2=3.862, P=0.049). As for safety, there were no exercise-related adverse events during the intervention in either group. Conclusions:The efficacy and safety of the task-oriented exercise program for hospitalized elderly diabetic patients is comparable to that of the regular program.Additionally, the task-oriented program is more feasible than the regular program.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of daily soft brace wearing on plantar dynamics during walking in patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI). MethodsA total of 52 patients with unilateral chronic ankle instability (CAI) in Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital from February, 2021 to January, 2023 were randomly divided into control group (n = 26) and experimental group (n = 26). Both groups underwent an eight-week exercise training program. The control group wore placebo brace during daily activities, while the experimental group wore soft ankle brace. Plantar dynamic parameters were measured using a pressure plate system during walking, including peak plantar pressure and plantar impulse before and after intervention. ResultsSix participants dropped out in the control group and five in the experimental group, resulting in a final inclusion of 41 participants. After intervention, there was no significant difference in peak plantar pressure and impulse on the affected side in the control group among different areas (P > 0.05). In the experimental group, the peak pressure and impulse in the heel medial, heel lateral and forefoot medial areas increased (|t| > 4.192, P < 0.001), while the peak pressure and impulse in the midfoot and lateral forefoot areas decreased (t > 2.984, P < 0.05); the peak pressure and impulse in the heel medial, heel lateral and forefoot medial areas were higher in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.126, P < 0.05), and the peak pressure and impulse were lower in the midfoot and forefoot lateral areas (t > 2.133, P < 0.05). ConclusionWearing a soft brace during daily activities may optimize the distribution of peak plantar pressure and plantar impulse on the affected side in patients with CAI, which may prevent recurrence of sprains.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of electroacupuncture(EA)combined with exercise therapy on balance function in patients with knee osteoarthritis(KOA). Methods:Seventy patients with KOA were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,with 35 cases in each group.The treatment group was treated with EA combined with exercise therapy.EA was applied to Dubi(ST35),Neixiyan(EX-LE4),Xuehai(SP10),Liangqiu(ST34),Yanglingquan(GB34),and Zusanli(ST 36).Exercise therapy(muscle strength training and knee mobility training)was applied after EA.The control group only received the same exercise therapy as the treatment group.The two groups were treated with the same course of treatment,3 times a week for 4 consecutive weeks,12 times in total,and followed up for 1 month.The Pro-Kin254P balance test system was used to measure the balance function parameters at 4 time points,including before treatment,after 1 session of treatment,after 12 sessions of treatment,and at 1-month follow-up after treatment.The visual analog scale(VAS)and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index(WOMAC)scores were recorded. Results:The markedly effective rate and total effective rate in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.01).The Romberg area,Romberg length,and VAS scores of the two groups decreased significantly after 1 session of treatment,12 sessions of treatment,and 1 month after treatment,and the differences between different time points in the same group were statistically significant(P<0.01).There were significant differences between the two groups at the same time point(P<0.05).The total WOMAC scores of the two groups after 1 session of treatment,12 sessions of treatment,and 1 month after treatment decreased significantly,and there were significant differences between different time points in the same group(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between the two groups at the same time point(P>0.05). Conclusion:EA combined with exercise therapy or exercise therapy alone can enhance the balance function,relieve joint pain,and improve joint function in patients with KOA.EA combined with exercise therapy is superior to exercise therapy alone in improving balance function and pain,but the two treatment protocols have similar effects in improving joint function.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between upper limb kinetics and perceived fatigability in elderly individuals during an upper limb position sustained isometric task. METHODS: A total of 31 elderly participants, 16 men (72.94±4.49 years) and 15 women (72.27±6.05 years), performed a upper limb position sustained isometric task. Upper-limb acceleration was measured using an inertial measurement unit. Perceived fatigability was measured using the Borg CR10 scale. RESULTS: Higher mean acceleration in the x-axis throughout the activity was associated with higher final perceived fatigability scores. Moderate correlations were observed between perceived fatigability variation and mean acceleration cutoffs in all axes during the second half of the activity. In women, significant correlations were found between all perceived fatigability cutoffs and mean acceleration in the y- and x-axes. However, in men, the relationships between perceived fatigability variation and mean acceleration were more extensive and stronger. CONCLUSION: The acceleration pattern of the upper limb is linked to perceived fatigability scores and variation, with differences between sexes. Monitoring upper limb acceleration using a single inertial measurement unit can be a useful and straightforward method for identifying individuals who may be at risk of experiencing high perceived fatigability or task failure.

This study investigated the effects of a foot core intervention on the coordination of foot joints in recreational runners. This was a secondary analysis from a randomized controlled trial conducted with 87 recreational runners allocated to the control group (CG), which followed a placebo lower limb stretching protocol, or the intervention group (IG), which underwent an 8-week (3 times/week) foot core training. The participants ran on a force-instrumented treadmill at a self-selected speed (9.5-10.5 km/h) while the foot segment motion was captured. The vector coding technique was used to assess inter-joint coordination for four selected coupled segment and joint angles. The coordination patterns of the calcaneus and midfoot (CalMid) and midfoot and metatarsus (MidMet) joint pairs were affected. In the frontal plane, IG showed an in-phase with proximal dominancy coordination at heel strike, with a decrease in its frequency after the training (P=0.018), suggesting a longer foot supination. Additionally, IG showed an anti-phase with distal dominancy pattern at early stance compared to CG due to a smaller but earlier inversion of the CalMid-MidMet pair (P=0.020). The intervention also had an effect on the transverse plane of the CalMid-MidMet pair, with IG showing a significantly greater frequency of anti-phase coordination with proximal dominancy during propulsion than CG (P=0.013), probably due to a reduction in the CalMid abduction. Overall, the results suggested that the foot core intervention reduces the occurrence of running-related injuries by increasing the resistance to calcaneus pronation and building a more rigid and efficient lever during push-off.

Introdução: o ombro do jogador de voleibol é suscetível a lesões resultantes de sobrecargas biomecânicas e movimentos repetitivos. As frequentes queixas de dor nessa articulação evidenciam o elevado volume de ações motoras unilaterais em alta velocidade acima da cabeça, atingindo o manguito rotador (MR) e gerando limitação funcional na prática desportiva. As tendinopatias do MR, formado pelos músculos subescapular, redondo menor, infraespinhal e supraespinhal, atingem comumente os tendões do supraespinhal e do infraespinhal. Objetivo: descrever as condutas cinesioterapêuticas utilizadas no tratamento das tendinopatias do MR em atletas de voleibol de quadra. Metodologia: pesquisaram-se as bases de dados MEDLINE, SciELO e BVS. Descritores: lesões do ombro, manguito rotador, atletas, voleibol e Terapia por Exercício (pesquisados em inglês), associados dois a dois ou três a três, dentre os quais o termo atletas ou voleibol sempre foi mantido. Foram incluídos artigos de revisão, artigos originais, ensaios clínicos e estudos de coorte publicados em português e inglês, entre os anos de 2009 e 2019. Resultados: inicialmente a busca resultou em 480 artigos. Após o processo de seleção, seis estudos foram revisados na íntegra e incluídos na síntese qualitativa. Conclusão: as principais condutas cinesioterapêuticas descritas foram: fortalecimento dos rotadores externos, dos músculos do tronco, da coluna e periescapulares, alongamento da região posterior do ombro e mobilizações articulares.
Introduction: the volleyball player's shoulder is susceptible to injuries resulting from biomechanical overloads and repetitive movements. The frequent complaints of pain in this joint highlight the high volume of unilateral motor actions at high speed above the head, reaching the rotator cuff (RC) and generating functional limitation in sports. RC tendinopathies, formed by the subscapularis, teres minor, infraspinatus and supraspinatus muscles, commonly affect the supraspinatus and infraspinatus tendons. Objective: to describe the kinesiotherapeutic conducts used in the treatment of RC tendinopathies in indoor volleyball athletes. Methodology: MEDLINE, SciELO and VHL databases were searched. Descriptors: shoulder injuries, rotator cuff, athletes, volleyball and Exercise Therapy (searched in English), associated two by two or three by three, among which the term athletes or volleyball was always maintained. Review articles, original articles, clinical trials and cohort studies published in Portuguese and English between 2009 and 2019 were included. Results: initially the search resulted in 480 articles. After the selection process, six studies were fully reviewed and included in the qualitative synthesis. Conclusion: the main kinesiotherapeutic procedures described were strengthening of the external rotators, trunk, spine and periscapular muscles, stretching of the posterior region of the shoulder and joint mobilizations.

Physiotherapy plays an important role in helping to manage and control signs and symptoms. Objective to describe the results of a therapeutic intervention program in patients with lung cancer. Methods a quasi-experimental study was carried out, with 77 patients diagnosed with lung cancer belonging to two polyclinics in the Ciego de Ávila province, from 2019 to 2021. The analyzed variables: age, sex, start time of rehabilitation, symptoms and quality of life; the latter using the European organization for research and treatment of cancer quality life questionnaire core 30. To determine the significance of the change after treatment, the non-parametric sign test for life quality was used. Results the age group from 65 to 79 years old and the male sex prevailed. Rehabilitation start time ranged from 6 to 12 months. Fatigue, dyspnea, anxiety, and insomnia were the predominant symptoms, and they improved slightly, especially dyspnea (from 92.2% to 50.6%). Quality of life also showed some improvement, a statistically significant result (p=0.000). Conclusion the therapeutic intervention was able to alleviate some symptoms in patients under study, which in case of quality of life was statistically significant.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Physical exercise is an efficient non-pharmacological strategy for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Blood flow restriction (BFR) is a technique known to enhance strength and hypertrophy gains when combined with low-intensity resistance exercise. This study aimed to analyze the effects of 12 weeks of low-intensity resistance training with and without blood flow restriction (BFR) on pain control and strength improvement in patients with KOA. METHODS: Two intervention groups performed low-intensity resistance exercise (knee joint extension on the leg extension chair at 30% of one repetition maximum) with (LI+BFR, n=13) or without blood flow restriction (LI, n=13), twice a week for 12 weeks. Preand post-test of one repetition maximum, functional strength (Chair-test), peak torque for unilateral knee extension exercise and pain (Visual Analogue Scale) were evaluated. RESULTS: No statistically significant differences were observed between treatments in pain reduction (p>0.05). Both interventions increased muscle strength and functional strength after 12 weeks of intervention (p<0.05). The peak torque for knee joint extension increased only in the LI+BFR group (p<0.05). Has no difference in reducing pain in patients with KOA among the groups (p< 0.05), both in the LI+BFR and the LI group. CONCLUSION: The results of the present study showed that BFR associated with low-intensity resistance exercise does not produce additional effects in terms of pain reduction and strength gain in patients with knee osteoarthritis, when compared to resistance exercise alone.
RESUMO JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: O exercício físico é uma estratégia não farmacológica eficiente para o tratamento da osteoartrite de joelho (OAJ). A restrição do fluxo sanguíneo (RFS) é uma técnica conhecida por potencializar o ganho de força e hipertrofia quando combinada com exercícios de resistência de baixa intensidade. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar os efeitos de 12 semanas de treinamento de resistência de baixa intensidade com e sem restrição de fluxo sanguíneo (RFS) no controle da dor e melhora da força em pacientes com OAJ. MÉTODOS: Dois grupos de intervenção realizaram exercício resistido de baixa intensidade (extensão da articulação do joelho na cadeira extensora a 30% de uma repetição máxima) com (ER+RFS, n=13) ou sem restrição do fluxo sanguíneo (ER, n=13), duas vezes por semana durante 12 semanas. Foram avaliados pré e pós-teste de uma repetição máxima, força funcional (Chair-test), pico de torque para exercício de extensão de joelho unilateral e dor (Escala Analógica Visual). RESULTADOS: Não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre os tratamentos na redução da dor (p>0,05). Ambas as intervenções aumentaram a força muscular e a força funcional após 12 semanas de intervenção (p<0,05). O pico de torque para extensão da articulação do joelho aumentou apenas no grupo ER+RFS (p<0,05). A dor crônica relacionada à OAJ não apresentou diferença estatisticamente significativa na redução da dor (p> 0,05) em resposta a ambas as intervenções. CONCLUSÃO: Os resultados do presente estudo evidenciaram que a RFS associada ao exercício de resistência de baixa intensidade não prouduz efeitos adicinais na redução da dor e no ganho de força em pacientes com osteoartrite de joelho, quando comparada apenas ao exercício de resistência.

Objective:Exercise is a key way to control the blood glucose,which can improve blood lipids and blood pressure,reduce glycated hemoglobin levels,and increase insulin sensitivity.It is of great significance for maintaining blood glucose homeostasis.This study aims to explore the optimal exercise combinations suitable for diabetic patients,and to provide scientific and effective personalized exercise guidance for diabetic patients. Methods:The physical examination data and questionnaire results of were collected from the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.The study was involved in 3 867 diabetes from January,2020 to December,2021.The basic information and living habits were obtained through questionnaires.The fasting blood samples were collected to measure the levels of total cholesterol(TCh),triglyceride,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),and fasting blood glucose.Physical measurements included height,weight,waistline,hipline,and blood pressure.Categorical variables were tested using chi-square tests,and continuous variables were tested using non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test.Multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the relationship between exercise behaviors(frequency,duration,and intensity),years of exercise,diet habits,medicine,and fasting blood glucose.The relationship between different exercise behaviors and various indexes(BMI,blood pressure,blood lipids,blood glucose)was analyzed by multiple rising sun rose plots.The polar thermal diagram showed the relationship of exercise behaviors with the best expected effect. Results:Non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test showed that there were significant differences in other indexes except LDL-C(P=0.681)among groups with different exercise behaviors(all P＜0.01).The multiple rising sun rose plots showed that diabetic patients who did moderate to high intensity exercise more than 5 times a week for more than 30 min each time had a healthier BMI,blood lipid levels,blood glucose levels,and blood pressure.Polar thermal diagram showed that low-intensity exercise once or twice a week requires 30 to 60 min or more of exercise to achieve the desired results.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that frequency(β=-0.208,95% CI-0.356 to-0.059,P=0.006),duration(β=-0.227,95% CI-0.387 to-0.066,P=0.006),intensity of exercise(β=-0.110,95% CI-0.218 to-0.002,P=0.046),diet habits(β=0.462,95% CI 0.295 to 0.556,P＜0.001)and medicine(β=-0.520,95% CI-0.720 to-0.312,P＜0.001)were correlated with fasting blood glucose. Conclusion:Moderate to high intensity exercise for more than 30 min and 5 times a week is the most beneficial combination for diabetes.Low exercise intensity should be combined with higher exercise frequency and longer exercise time to achieve the desired effect.With the increase of exercise intensity,the relationship between low exercise frequency and long exercise time is weakened.
