Background: Hemophilic arthropathy is caused by recurrent intra-articular bleeding, most commonly in the knee joints. In terms of physical impact, this arthropathy causes significant disability and hampers the physical activity and functionality of he affected individuals.
Objective: This study intended to examine the effect of a physical rehabilitation program incorporating Kinect-based virtual reality (KBVR) on gait characteristics, functional ability, and physical activity level in adolescents diagnosed with hemophilic knee arthropathy (HKA).

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effects of tele-physical therapy (TPT) on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who have recovered from COVID-19, comparing outcomes with a control group that received only patient education.
- Participants in the TPT group showed a significant decrease in HbA1c levels, indicating better blood sugar control, along with improvements in pulmonary function, physical fitness, and quality of life compared to the control group.
- Results demonstrated lasting benefits at 6 and 12 months post-treatment, suggesting that tele-rehabilitation could be an effective approach for managing T2DM after COVID-19 infection.
Background: The knowledge about the effective implementation of corticosteroid injection (CS) with deep transverse friction massage (DTFM) and Mill's manipulation (MM) on clinical and radiological changes (Magnetic resonance imaging-MRI and Ultra sound) in lateral epicondylalgia (LE) is lacking. Therefore, the objective of this study is proposed to find and compare the effects of corticosteroid injection (CS) DTFM and Mill's manipulation on clinical and radiological changes in lateral epicondylalgia.
Design, Setting, Participants: Randomized, single-blinded, controlled study was conducted on 60 LE participants at university hospital.
Comparative Effects of Mulligan's Mobilization, Spinal Manipulation, and Conventional Massage Therapy in Cervicogenic Headache-A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial.
Healthcare (Basel)
December 2022
Background: There is ample evidence supporting the use of manual therapy techniques for the treatment of cervicogenic headache (CGH). Objective: The objective of this study was to find and compare the effects of different manual therapy approaches to cervicogenic headache. Methods: A randomized, controlled study was conducted on 84 CGH participants at the university hospital.
