Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on the supplementary motor area (SMA) in motor function in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients.
Method: Databases searched included 5 databases from October 7,2022 to January 4, 2023. The Cochrane Bias Risk Assessment Tool was used for quality assessment.
Purpose: To identify the differences in the limits of stability (LOS) between older rolling walker and single-tip-cane users.
Design: This was a matched paired t-test design with repeated measure.
Methods: Eighteen older subjects were matched based on age, gender, and functional level.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigated whether superficial precooling before stretching can enhance range of motion (ROM) and improve retention of ROM gains.
- Participants were divided into two groups: one performed standard static stretching while the other incorporated a 10-minute ice application before stretching over a 4-week period.
- Results showed that while both groups improved their ROM during the stretching phase, there were no significant differences between the groups, indicating that precooling does not provide additional benefits to stretching programs.
Stretching is performed in rehabilitation and sports conditioning programs. It is not known how often during a week stretching needs to be performed to maintain flexibility. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the influence of intermittent stretching (i.

Objectives: To determine if the modified low-Dye medial longitudinal arch (MLA) taping procedure places the subtalar joint into the neutral position and maintains the subtalar joint neutral (STJN) position following 10 minutes of walking.
Background: Subtalar malalignment in excessive pronation is commonly accepted as a contributing factor to a variety of musculoskeletal pathologies.
