Faculty of Midwifery and Nursing, University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Carol Davila", 37 Dionisie Lupu Street, 020021 Bucharest, Romania.
Patients with COVID-19 suffering in the acute phase from both the sequelae of the disease and prolonged immobilization require a rehabilitation phase for functional recovery and a comprehensive functional evaluation. This study proposes using the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) as a global functional assessment tool to quantify rehabilitation outcomes in post-COVID patients. Additionally, investigating the effect of High-Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT) on patients with musculoskeletal comorbidities was another key research question.

Introduction: The thoracic surgical procedure leads to a reduction in respiratory muscle strength. To restore it, certain strategies must be employed. Physiotherapy utilizes resources and techniques such as deep breathing stimulation, cough stimulation, use of incentive spirometers, mobilization, and ambulation.

Article Synopsis
- The study observed 488 tetraplegic and paraplegic dogs to assess clinical occurrences during rehabilitation, finding a high incidence of issues at 79.5%.
- Most common problems included neurogenic bladder (58%), diarrhea (35.5%), urinary incontinence (21.3%), and fecal incontinence (20.5%).
- Effective measures like POCUS evaluations, proper positioning, physical exercises, and neurorehabilitation protocols showed potential in reducing serious issues like respiratory problems and urinary tract infections, particularly in breeds like French Bulldogs and Dachshunds.
Estimating cardiopulmonary fitness with a new sampling technology in patients with rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease.

Rehabilitation Sciences Post-Graduation Programme, Augusto Motta University Centre (UNISUAM), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Background And Objectives: Although peak oxygen uptake (VO ) is one of the most important measures in clinical practice, the high cost and time consumption have led to the search for simpler devices and the development of the estimating cardiopulmonary fitness (eCPF) equation. Since the lungs are one of the sites most affected by rheumatoid arthritis (RA), this study aimed to create a predictive equation for VO obtained by simple sampling technology in women with RA-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD).
Methods: This cross-sectional study evaluated 47 women with RA-ILD.
Antibiotherapy in Children with Cystic Fibrosis-An Extensive Review.
Children (Basel)

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Victor Babes" Timisoara, 2 Eftimie Murgu Square, 300041 Timisoara, Romania.
In cystic fibrosis (CF), the respiratory disease is the main factor that influences the outcome and the prognosis of patients, bacterial infections being responsible for severe exacerbations. The etiology is often multi-microbial and with resistant strains. The aim of this paper is to present current existing antibiotherapy solutions for CF-associated infections in order to offer a reliable support for individual, targeted, and specific treatment.
