Objective: Scientometric analysis of evidence-based studies of the physical and rehabilitation medicine (PRM) technologies' effectiveness in the rehabilitation of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Material And Methods: The search for the material was carried out in electronic databases (PEDro, eLIBRARY, PubMed), as well as databases of systematic reviews (SR) (Cochrane Library) using the keywords: «brain injury», «brain», «physical therapy». RCTs were assessed on the PEDro scale from 1 to 10 points. For the final analysis the results of foreign SRs and RCTs published in the period from January 2014 to December 2019 were selected.

Results: The analysis of studies devoted to the use of therapeutic physical factors in the rehabilitation of patients with TBI from the standpoint of evidence-based medicine is carried out. The basic trends in evidence-based studies on the use of various forms of physical exercise, neuromuscular stimulation, and robot-assisted training in the rehabilitation of patients with TBI are highlighted. PRM technologies have been identified which usage led to positive results in patients with TBI for a number of physiological indicators but the number of evidence-based studies on this topic was insufficient. Based on the scientometric analysis of benign studies the promising directions in the study of the influence of therapeutic physical factors in the rehabilitation of patients with TBI have been identified.

Conclusion: The presented data demonstrate the studies' results conducted over the past 5 years on the use of PRM technologies in patients with previous TBI. A significant part of the methods considered in the article is actively used in domestic rehabilitation that reflects the ubiquitous process of integrating information obtained in the course of evidence-based research. In order to improve the quality of rehabilitation care for patients with TBI the practice of analyzing and conducting evidence-based studies on this nosology should be continued.

Integrated analysis of the prevalence and influencing factors of poststroke dysphagia.

Eur J Med Res

January 2025

Clinical Research and Big Data Center, South China Research Center for Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Medical College of Acu-Moxi and Rehabilitation, Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Guangzhou, China.

Objectives: Poststroke dysphagia (PSD) is a common complication after stroke but there is limited information on its global prevalence and influencing factors, such as spatial, temporal, demographic characteristics, and stroke-related factors. Our study seeks to fill this knowledge gap by exploring the overall prevalence of PSD and its influencing factors.

Methods: A search of English-language literature from database inception from 2005 until May 2022 was performed using PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Scopus.

Exploring the barriers to cervical screening and perspectives on new self-sampling methods amongst under-served groups.

BMC Health Serv Res

January 2025

NIHR Greater Manchester Patient Safety Research Collaboration, Centre for Primary Care & Health Services Research, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Biology, Medicine & Health, The University of Manchester, Greater Manchester, England, UK.

Background: Cervical screening rates have fallen in recent years in the UK, representing a health inequity for some under-served groups. Self-sampling alternatives to cervical screening may be useful where certain barriers prohibit access to routine cervical screening. However, there is limited evidence on whether self-sampling methods address known barriers to cervical screening and subsequently increase uptake amongst under-screened groups.

Numerous research studies have delved into the potential effect of LASER therapy on alleviating pain associated with plantar fasciitis. However, the distinct effects of both High Intensity and Low Intensity LASER therapy (HILT/LILT) on addressing plantar fasciitis pain have not been thoroughly investigated. This systematic review seeks to provide a comprehensive summary of the present body of literature regarding the use of LASER therapy in managing pain related to plantar fasciitis.
