Effects of short foot training on foot posture in patients with flatfeet: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: This systematic review and meta-analysis showed that short foot exercises need a larger sample size to find their effect on improving flat feet; the duration of the intervention is a factor. As most studies are currently unclear whether the participants were patients with flat feet or asymptomatic individuals with flat feet the disease syndrome in patients with flatfoot may also be a factor.PMID:38517769 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230226 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)

Comparison of muscle tightness between knees in individuals with unilateral osteoarthritis and its relationship with pain and function
CONCLUSION: This study emphasizes the significance of muscle tightness in the symptomatic extremities of individuals with unilateral knee OA. The results indicate that increased muscle tightness makes pain worse and limits movement. It's crucial for healthcare providers treating OA to focus on improving muscle flexibility, reducing pain, and enhancing overall function.PMID:38517773 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230373 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)
