BMC Cancer
January 2025
Department of Physical Therapy, Faculty of Medical Science, Nagoya Women's University, 3-4-0 Shioji-cho, Mizuho-ku, Nagoya, 467-8610, Aichi, Japan.
Background: Despite advances in treatment, the incidence of postoperative complications following pancreatectomy remains high, leading to frequent hospital readmissions. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between preoperative exercise tolerance and the likelihood of unplanned readmission in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Methods: This retrospective analysis included 88 patients who underwent pancreatectomy at a single institution between July 2019 and September 2022 and focused on patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

: Chronic pain affects about 20% of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients, with high pain catastrophizing being a key predictor. Screening and addressing this modifiable factor may improve postoperative outcomes. : We aimed to compare the effectiveness of two preoperative home-based multimodal physical therapy interventions on pain catastrophizing in high-catastrophizing TKA patients.

Persons with blindness and low vision experience increased fall and injury risk beyond atypical biomechanics and balance impairments. Falling risk doubles with blindness, and more than triples with depth perception losses. Despite this, physical therapy focuses on musculoskeletal injuries postevent rather than taking a proactive and preventative approach for persons with blindness and low vision.
