Filter by:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide, and is associated with obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Physical activity and lifestyle interventions are among the most recommended treatments for individuals with MASLD. In this RCT, we will evaluate the effect of combined exercise training "strength and aerobic training" versus "strength and high intensity training (HIIT)". The main outcome parameter is the severity of liver steatosis. Patients will be recruited at the fatty liver clinic of the UZ Gent.
Objective: The aim of this study is to compare neuromuscular and aquatic Exercise programs on fall risk and physical function in geriatrics. Methods: As a result of the power analysis (G-Power), 36 participants are planned to be included in this study Block randomization will be used to divide participants into 2 groups, each with at least 18 participants: Group 1 (NE Group) and Group 2 (AE Group) (Randomizer.org). NE (Neuromuscular Exercise) group will participate in a 12-week exercise program consisting of sensorimotor system training, postural stability and control, global and local joint stabilization, balance training, muscle strength, breathing, and functional movement patterns.AE (Aqıuatic Exercise) Group will participate in an aquatic exercise program, which includes warm-up, mobility and strength, stretching, and cooling exercises in a 140 cm deep pool with a water temperature of 32 °. Data will be collected using the International Physical Activity Survey Short Form (IPAQ-SF), Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA), Geriatric Pain Measure, Optojump-next (Microgate, Bolzano, Italy), 6-minute Walk Test, 30-second-Sit-to-Stand Test, Four Step Square Test, Berg Balance Scale, Fear of Falling Avoidance Behavior Questionnaire. Practice Implications: This current study will contribute to the understanding of how neuromuscular exercises affect falls and physical function in geriatrics.

Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate whether active remote symptom monitoring and management via a smartphone app utilizing electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) can improve adherence to prescribed outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation exercises among postsurgical lung cancer patients. Eligible patients will use the app for perioperative care and be randomized to an intervention group receiving ePRO-based symptom monitoring with clinician feedback or a control group receiving ePRO without feedback. The primary outcome is rehabilitation exercise adherence rate over 1 month after discharge. If proven effective, the app-enabled remote rehabilitation model can be scaled up to enhance recovery for more postoperative patients.
The lateral ankle complex sprain is the most prevalent musculoskeletal injury among the general population and athletes and is associated with long-term pain, disability, and high healthcare costs. One of the complications of a lateral ankle sprain is the development of chronic ankle instability (CAI). Conservative treatment is the initial therapeutic option for patients with CAI, however, the best strategies are not yet clear. Clinically, a new invasive technique has appeared, known as echoguided Percutaneous Neuromodulation (EPNM). To date there are no studies showing the efficacy of the technique in patients with CAI together with the combination of a neuromuscular exercise program. Participants: Volunteers and adults, from the group of students of the Gimbernat University School with a history of ankle sprain and physically active who meet the inclusion criteria. Study variables: Self-administered ankle function scales (Cumberland ankle instability tool: CAIT and foot and ankle ability:FAAM measure Scale), objective measurement of function in the lower limb (Test countermovement jump: CMJ and Side hop Test:SHT), measurement of isometric strength of the ankle musculature, measurement of dynamic balance (Test star excursion balance), range of motion measurement (Ankle Dorsiflexion) and pain measurement (Numeric pain rating scale: NPRS Scale). Procedures: After carrying out the assessment, the participants will be randomized to participate in a neuromuscular exercise intervention (control group) or in a neuromuscular exercise intervention together with an application of EPNM in the common peroneal nerve (control group). experimental). The duration of the intervention in both cases will be 4 weeks, where in the control group there will be 2 sessions per week of exercise and in the experimental group 2 sessions per week of exercise plus an application of EPNM. Objective and hypothesis: The main objective of the study will be to compare the short- and medium-term effects of both interventions in relation to the study variables to be measured. The investigators hypothesize that those patients who receive neuromodulation combined with the neuromuscular exercise program will have greater improvements.

In this study, the investigators plan to have Parkinson's patients perform exercises according to the task-oriented training method. Since recent studies have suggested that task-oriented training should be organized as a series of workstations that allow for more intensive practice, each of them has a program content implemented in the form of a station. The program will be implemented in 11 different stations with 3 minutes and a 1-minute break at each station, 3 days a week for 8 weeks under the supervision and guidance of a physiotherapist. The task-oriented training program will be carried out by applying the above-mentioned exercises in the form of stations sequentially within a certain period of time. For all exercises, the intensity perceived by the individuals will be ensured to be 12-15 points of perceived exertion according to the Borg Perceived Exertion Scale. In this way, the exercise program can be easily individualized according to the participant's pain, complaints, and functional status. In the study, after the task-oriented approach, foam roller application and myofascial release will be applied at the end of each session. Foam roller application; C7-T1 and posterior neck region, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, and right and left sides of the thoracolumbar spine will be applied with a foam roller, which is a myofascial release device, in each session. Each application area will be applied in 3 sets of 60 seconds of application and 30 seconds of rest. The intensity of the pressure for the intensity of the application will be subjectively controlled with a target numeric rating scale rating of 7/10 (0 represents no discomfort and 10 represents maximum discomfort). In the sham group, similar to the literature, the intensity of the application will be applied in accordance with the 0/10 numeric rating scale, at the same application sites, for the same duration and the same rest intervals. Within the scope of this study, participants gait, balance, rotation time, range of motion, level of achievement of the treatment goal, quality of life and trunk impairment will be evaluated at the beginning of the study and at the end of 8 weeks.
In order to cope with pain, improve quality of life and prevent kinesiophobia in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis, most of the physiotherapy approaches used so far are standard. However, nowadays, it has been observed that participation in treatment has increased with game-based exercises instead of standard physiotherapy. In addition, remote monitoring applications made it possible to perform physiotherapy programs, which are an integral part of the treatment in children with JIA, who is difficult to reach the clinic due to reasons such school schedule and living area, through remote monitoring. This project aimed to investigate the effects of telemonitoring-supported game-based home exercise programs on pain, kinesiophobia and quality of life. The original aspect of our project is to include telemonitoring-supported game-based home exercise programs as an alternative physiotherapy program in children with JIA. Its contribution to clinical practice is to change the perspective of physiotherapists and children on standard physiotherapy practices, to increase their motivation, and to ensure children's participation in treatment.
