To compare the effects of moderate intensity interval training and sprint interval training on patients having chronic asthma.
Development of the visual system immediately starts after birth via visual stimuli and interactions with the environment. The World Health Organization (WHO) has categorized visual impairments with respect to the best-corrected visual acuity as follows: blindness (Snellen visual acuity of 3/30), severe visual impairment (Snellen visual acuity between 6/60 and 3/30), moderate visual impairment (Snellen visual acuity between 6/18 and 6/60), and mild or no visual impairment (Snellen visual acuity of 6/18). The proper function of hands, particularly in delicate activities, depends on the interaction between the various regions of the brain, particularly, the sensory and motor cortex. Sensory stimulation can be used in such children to improve their manual dexterity and therapeutic interventions can be applied to gain hand strength. Developing skillful hands is a necessity in blind children as it often compensates for their missing vision. This study will focus on effectiveness of hand grip strength and manual ability with sensory stimulation in children with moderate to severe visual impairment. Theraputty hand exercises and sensory stimulation techniques will be used.
Cerebral palsy is a group of upper motor neuron syndromes with acquired disorders of early brain development .It effects the person's ability to move and maintain balance and posture. It is the most common motor disability of childhood. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation integration pattern stimulates the proprioceptors with in the muscle and tendon to enhance the performance flexibility, balance and helps in trunk mobility. The motor control movement pattern is facilitated by the dynamic and assistive active resistant progressions regaining motor control. Rebound therapy is used to facilitate movement, promote balance, helps in increase or decrease in muscle tone and promotes sensory integration. This study will evaluate the effects of PNF techniques with and without rebound therapy on trunk control in children with cerebral palsy. It is randomized controlled trial.34 children with cerebral palsy will participate in this study. The participants will be randomized into control group A (n=17) and experimental group (n =17).Only those children will be included who fulfill inclusion criteria. That is both gender, age range 6 to 12 years, having GMFM score of I -II .Those having cognitive and learning difficulties, having age range out of 6 to 12 years. Data will be analyzed through SPSS 29. The control group will practice PNF techniques for trunk control while experimental group will practice rebound therapy along with PNF exercises for trunk control .Both group will receive 45 min session, 5 days a week for 6 weeks. TCMS and TUG scale will be used.

This study will help gather evidence on the practice of incorporating trigger point therapy in the treatment of deep gluteal syndrome.
Down syndrome (DS) is the most commonly occurring chromosomal condition and it affects more than 400,000 people in the United States. The chances of having a child with DS increases as the mother ages. DS is a chromosomal disorder characterized by trisomy 21. These alterations are responsible for motor and cognitive development delay, due to abnormalities on the maturation of the central nervous system. DS presents generalized muscle hypotonia which interferes in motor coordination and postural reactions leading to changes in balance. Rhythmic aerobic exercises for people with intellectual disability are helpful. In these exercises body's large muscles move in a rhythmic manner for a sustained period of time. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of rhythmic aerobic exercises for improving functional balance in children with DS. This will be a randomized controlled trial study. Study will be approved by ethical committee. After that informed consent will be taken and patients will be included in the study based on the inclusion criteria. 40 patients will be divided into two groups, interventions will be performed for 50 minutes per session twice a week for total of 8 weeks; In experimental group, rhythmic aerobic exercises will be performed. The rhythmic training group initially used rhythmic auditory stimulation with 8 beats, then progressed to 16 beats per minutes. In control group, strength and balance exercises will be performed. Functional balance of the patient will be assessed by checking the quality of Sit-to-stand and Stand to-Sit on the respective sections of Pediatric Balance Scale and Time Up and Go test. Data will be analyzed using SPSS 25. Mean and standard deviation will be calculated. Both groups will be compared by appropriate test.
This study will be a randomized clinical trial will be conducted in Ayub national park cricket club Sample size will be 48 to evaluate the effects of Pilates and Burpees exercises training among cricket players with an age range of 16-24 years. Non probability convenient sampling technique would be used. Participants will be randomly assigned to 2 groups. Group A will include participants who received Pilates exercises training (6 weeks) along with the warm up. Group B participant who will receive burpees exercise training (6 weeks) and warm up. Outcomes of both trainings are the effects on core strengthening and dynamic balance on players in A group and the B group. Post interventional assessment was done via Star excursion balance test, prone bridge test and 1 minute sit-up test. Data will be collected at baseline and 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed by SPSS version 25
Effect of Senobi breathing exercise versus Buteyko breathing technique on functional performance among chronic obstructive pulmonary patient.
Cerebral Palsy is a neuromuscular disorder that causes multiple disabilities in an individual. Children's ability to rely on speech as a primary mode of communication can be compromised by cerebral palsy. Children with communication difficulties face many barriers to participating in everyday life and have a heightened risk of social isolation and mental health problems. So, augmentative, and alternative communication (AAC) strategies and tools are helpful for children with CP. AAC is classified into manual signs and symbols, and low, mid, and high- tech communication aids form part of a total communication approach whereby all potential modalities of communication are explored and supported. The World Health Organization International Classification of Function, Disability, and Health for Children and Youth is increasingly being used to support decision-making. The study will be carried out at Rising Sun Institute for Special Children. The study design for this study is Randomized Control Trials. The convenience Sampling Technique will be used to collect data and 16 children with cerebral palsy will be included in this study. Both males and females with the age range of 3-15 years will be included in this study. The children will be randomly assigned into groups, group A will be allocated 8 children as the control group, and in group B, 8 as the treatment/ interventional group. Dysarthric Profile will be used for assessment purposes and aided Augmentative and Alternative communication system for the intervention. The pre-assessment of the child's Early Functional development will be done. Then, the low- tech (PECS) will be used for 6 weeks for the intervention. We will take 3 sessions per week for 40 minutes for the treatment group while the control group will remain the same. After the end of 6 weeks, the post-assessment of the child's Early Functional development will also be done. This indicates the effectiveness of AAC devices in the communication of children with Cerebral Palsy. The use of AAC methods could help to reduce aggressiveness among children with cerebral palsy. Moreover, AAC-based information and tools enable them to create environments that will support or enhance the ability of people with complex communication needs to interact with family members, peers, teachers, and others.
