Efficacy of scapulothoracic exercises on proprioception and postural stability in cranio-cervico-mandibular malalignment: A randomized, double-blind, controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Postural stability, TMJ and cervical joint position sense appear to be affected in individuals with CCM malalignment. Our results showed that an exercise program including ST stabilization, proprioception and strengthening of the scapular muscles may be effective in the management of CCM malalignment and will allow clinicians to plan holistic treatment.PMID:38427467 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230323 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)

Predictors of response in PROMIS-global in a chronic low back pain specialty clinic: STarTBack and chronic overlapping pain conditions
CONCLUSIONS: SBT and the presence of COPC, which can be assessed at initial presentation to a specialty clinic, can predict change in PROMIS following treatment. Effort is needed to identify other factors that can help predict change in function after treatment in the specialty care setting.PMID:38427463 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230067 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)

Association of scoliosis with lower extremity alignments, muscle strengths, and foot characteristics and their alterations in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
CONCLUSIONS: Apart from spinal deformity, the AIS has changed in LE alignments, muscle strengths, and foot characteristics. Therapists should consider these associations and alterations for designing proper management.PMID:38427464 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230220 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)

Comparison by ultrasound shear wave elastography of toe flexor muscle contraction during MTP flexion exercise and short-foot exercise
CONCLUSION: MTP flexion exercise showed equivalent or greater contraction activity in certain intrinsic and extrinsic foot muscles when compared with short-foot exercise. This exercise is considered one of the training options for strengthening the intrinsic muscles of the foot.PMID:38427465 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230282 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)

Effects of transcutaneous radiofrequency diathermy versus ultrasound on latent myofascial trigger points in the upper trapezius: A randomized crossover trial
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that DCD® and US can both be considered effective modalities for the treatment of latent MTrPs, having a longer duration of action with DCD® therapy.PMID:38427466 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230296 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)
