Article Synopsis
- The study explores the prenatal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancies affected by inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs), identifying common issues like intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), microcephaly, and oligohydramnios.
- Mitochondrial disorders were linked to higher rates of oligohydramnios, IUGR, microcephaly, and heart problems, significantly impacting obstetric outcomes.
- Early identification of risk factors and complications in these pregnancies can lead to better interventions and improved health for both mothers and infants.
Background: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the viscoelastic properties of the superficial back muscles of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients with Lenke Type 1A and 1B curves compared to their healthy peers.
Methods: 20 participants with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and 20 healthy peers were evaluated. Cobb angle was recorded for scoliosis participants.
Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis in Adolescents With Mild Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Controlled Clinical Trial.
J Manipulative Physiol Ther
December 2024
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis (SEAS) protocol for patients with mild adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).
Method: (A controlled clinical trial) This preliminary study included 32 patients with AIS, aged 10 to 16 years, with Cobb angles ranging from 12° to 25°. The participants were divided into 2 groups: the SEAS group (n = 21) and standard care (n = 11).
The Effects of Photobiomodulation Therapy in Cubital Tunnel Syndrome, Clinical Trial.
Photobiomodul Photomed Laser Surg
November 2024
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the effects of laser therapy combined with splints and exercise on patients with cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS) compared to a placebo treatment.
- A total of 64 patients were randomly divided into two groups, one receiving actual laser therapy and the other receiving sham laser therapy, alongside standardized treatments like splints and exercises.
- Results showed significant short-term improvements in pain and function for the laser therapy group compared to the placebo, but both groups had similar medium-term effects, suggesting the need for more research with larger sample sizes.
Background: Since scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity, it causes some movement limitations in the spine and related joints. However, functional limitations associated with scoliosis-related hip joint involvement are the subject of research.
Aims: This study aims to investigate the physical characteristics and functional limitations associated with idiopathic scoliosis (IS), focusing on hip joint.
