Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and Its Relationship with the Predisposition to Muscle and Joint Injuries Associated with the COL1A1 and IL-6 Gene in Older Adults.

: Aging leads to physiological changes influenced by lifestyle, environment, and genetics, increasing the risk of morbidity and mortality in older adults. COL1A1 gene encodes an essential protein in connective tissues, which is associated with musculoskeletal lesions. The interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene is a proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory regulator and has a greater predisposition to fractures and osteoporosis reported.

Efficacy of a pain neuroscience educational program in improving executive function and pain intensity in fibromyalgia patients (Fibrobrain project): Study protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial.

Background: Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic musculoskeletal condition typically characterized by chronic pain, sleep disturbances, chronic fatigue, and cognitive problems. The present study aims to examine the efficacy of a pain neuroscience education program (PNE) in improving executive functions and pain intensity in patients with FM and compare them with those of standard treatment protocols.

Methods: This blinded, controlled clinical trial will compare changes in executive function and pain intensity between two groups.

Proprioceptive rehabilitation strategies in posttraumatic wrist injuries. Scoping review.

Background: The proprioceptive approach can effectively improve strength, mobility, edema reduction, and pain reduction, which in turn has a positive impact on functionality.

Objective: To identify proprioceptive rehabilitation strategies reported in the literature in adults with traumatic wrist injuries.

Methods: A scoping review was performed following the parameters of the Prisma ScR strategy.

NEUROCANTRIAL: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial of a pain neuroscience education programme in adults with cancer pain.

Introduction: Pain is the second most frequent symptom reported in patients with cancer among the main reasons for consultation. The incorporation of educational modalities in pain intervention processes has been suggested. This study aims to examine the efficacy of neuroscience pain education (PNE) in relation to pain, biopsychosocial variables and functional capacity in comparison with conventional treatment.

Dance as a neurorehabilitation strategy: A systematic review.

Objective: This systematic review aimed to demonstrate the benefits of dance-based therapeutic interventions in rehabilitation processes in patients with neurological disorders.

Methods: Searches on the following databases and electronic search engines were conducted: MEDLINE, LILACS, Science Direct, SCOPUS, PeDro, BVS (virtual health library), and Google Scholar. Data extraction was independently performed by two authors.

Effects of a Physical Exercise Program on the Physical Capacities of Older Adults: A Quasi-Experimental Study.

Purpose: To measure the effects of an exercise program on the physical capacities of older adults such as strength, flexibility, balance, and aerobic capacity.

Patients And Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study on a population of 5550 older adults and a sample of 4830 participants in an active aging program designed by the Municipal Health Secretary. The exercise program lasted 12 months, and pre-and post-program intervention measures were recorded using the senior fitness test.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe factors associated with prolonged ventilatory support in subjects undergoing coronary artery bypass graft.

Patients And Methods: This was an analytical retrospective case-control study. Cases were defined as subjects requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation (>48 hours) following isolated coronary artery bypass graft.

Effectiveness of Interventions Based on Pain Neuroscience Education on Pain and Psychosocial Variables for Osteoarthritis: A Systematic Review.

Unlabelled: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint condition. It affects more than 300 million people worldwide, who suffer from pain and physical disability.

Objective: To determine the results of cognitive educational interventions for pain management and psychosocial variables in adults with OA.

[Psychomotor evaluation tools in autistic spectrum disorder. Exploratory review.].

Background: The clinical evaluation is fundamental in the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and must include the evaluation of the psychomotor development in an integral way that allows to identify the interaction between the somatic and the affective, and in the long term, positively influence the overall development of the child. The objective of this work was to identify validated psychomotor assessment tools in autism spectrum disorder in the current literature.

Methods: An exploratory review was carried out following the Prisma-SCR criteria from searches in electronic databases, including PUBMED, SCIENCE DIRECT, LILACS, SCOPUS and PEDRO, only publications between the years 2010-2020 were taken into account.
