Short- and medium-term effects of a single session of pain neuroscience education on pain and psychological factors in patients with chronic low back pain. A single-blind randomized clinical trial.

Introduction: Biopsychosocial approach in patients suffering chronic low back pain (CLBP) promotes pain self-management strategies. Current evidence recommends high dose of Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) for clinically significant differences. However, the workload and time constraints experienced by healthcare providers impede the application of the recommended treatment regimen.

Effect of rowing on mobility, functionality, and quality of life in women with and without breast cancer: a 4-month intervention.

Purpose: Of the different modalities of rowing, dragon boat training is the most analyzed in breast cancer (BC). However, other types of boats, such as the felucca, use different biomechanical techniques, which have not been studied in the scientific literature. Consequently, in this study, we sought to determine the benefits of felucca rowing on the physical, psychological, and emotional well-being of patients with BC and healthy persons.

Effectiveness of a Group Physiotherapy Intervention in Nontraumatic, Inoperable Painful Shoulder: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of a group intervention in painful shoulder.

Design: This was a two-arm controlled clinical trial with a 5-wk follow-up and 1:1 allocation ratio with pretreatment and posttreatment assessments in a Spanish hospital in 2015-2016. This study comprised 74 patients with nontraumatic, inoperable painful shoulder.

Effectiveness of medical taping concept in primary dysmenorrhoea: a two-armed randomized trial.

In 2014, we assessed the effectiveness of Medical Taping Concept (MTC) in Primary Dysmenorrhoea (PD) with a single-blind, two-armed clinical trial (NCT02114723, ClinicalTrials.gov) with a follow-up of 4 menstrual cycles (pre-intervention: 2 months; post-intervention: 2 months) in a sample formed by 129 Spanish women aged 18-30 years with PD. We had two groups: intervention group (75), MTC covering T-11 and T-12 dermatomes; control group (54), another taping in both greater trochanter areas.
