Filter by:This study was conducted to investigate the effect of two different exercise protocols applied to healthy individuals on motor performance parameters. Forty-one healthy participants were included in the study. Participants were divided into 2 groups (wrist proprioceptive exercise group, general exercise group) and attended exercise training targeting the hand and wrist for a total of 6 weeks. Before and after the exercises, sociodemographic evaluation, Quick Disability of Arm Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, pain assessment, grip strength measurement, weight transfer tolerance test, wrist joint position sense, Nelson hand reaction test, upper extremity Y balance test, lateral grip and tripod grip measurements, manual muscle testing, and surface electromyography analysis were evaluated in both groups.
Although the negative effect of increased thoracic kyphosis in elderly individuals has been reported in the literature, the effect of the thoracic kyphosis angle on trunk and foot proprioception in young individuals has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the thoracic kyphosis on posture, proprioception and perception of postural appearance in young individuals.
It is known that posture is affected by various factors such as somatosensation, visual perception and cognition. In addition, it is also thought to affect conditions such as stress and anxiety through receptors. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between postural changes such as thoracic kyphosis, musculoskeletal problems, trunk position sense and anxiety in young individuals who were asymptomatic in terms of musculoskeletal problems.
It was aimed to measure the elbow joint position sense in healthy individuals in the case of a closed kinetic chain and to compare it with the measurement made in the case of an open kinetic chain.
This randomized controlled trial, conducted at the Pakistan Sports Board in Lahore from March to August 2023, investigates the impact of neuromuscular training with K-Tape on pain, range of motion, and balance in footballers with grade I and II ankle sprains. A total of 30 male participants aged 18-30, engaged in sports for at least one year with weekly training durations of 15-20 hours, are included in the study through a non-probability convenient sampling technique. The participants are divided into two groups: Group A (Control) receiving closed-chain exercises and Group B (Experimental) undergoing neuromuscular training with K-Tape. Data collection utilizes the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) for pain, the Star Excursion Balance Test for dynamic balance, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM)-Sport Subscale, and a goniometer for range of motion. Participants undergo three sessions of treatment per week for four weeks. The collected data will be analyzed using SPSS version 25, aiming to provide insights into the efficacy of neuromuscular training with K-Tape as a rehabilitation strategy for ankle sprains in footballers.
This study aimed to examine the effects of vibration applied at different frequencies with a percussion massage gun on joint range of motion, pain, functionality and kinesiophobia in individuals with cervical disc herniation.All individuals participating in the study will receive a conventional treatment program. In the conventional treatment program, heat will be applied to the neck area for 20 minutes and TENS (100 Hz) will be applied to the painful area. Additionally, patients will be given joint range of motion (ROM) exercises under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Vibration Group Vibration application will be applied to the individuals in this group in addition to conventional methods. Vibration application will be applied to the trapezius, levator scapula and cervical paravertebral muscles with a percussion massage gun (Compex Fix 2.0) along the origo-insersio line for 3 minutes for each muscle group. Vibration application will be made with the soft head of the percussion massage gun. Vibration therapy will be applied 3 days a week for 3 weeks.
this study was done to answer the following: Is there a difference between students without and with varying degrees of text neck in cervical proprioception defect? Is there a correlation between JPE and severity of text neck among Taibah students University?
Plyometric exercises are used in many sports branches to increase sportive performance and neuromuscular coordination. It is known that side values such as the time to reach peak torque next to muscle strength, which is one of the evaluations of sportive performance, are also important. Our aim with this study is; To evaluate the effects of plyometric exercises on proprioception, time to peak torque and performance in young female basketball players by training the dominant and non-dominant upper extremity on these parameters.
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between pain, and balance, proprioception sensation in the knee, erector spinae and multifidus muscle strength in individuals with non-specific low back pain.
The symptoms of knee osteoarthritis include knee joint pain, impaired proprioception, and etc. Knee arthroplasty is commonly recommended for the patient with severe knee osteoarthritis to relieve pain and regain function. But the effects of arthroplasty on the proprioception and gait performance, which were related to the risk of falling, were not fully understood. Recently, the concept of enhancing the rotational movement has been introduced into the design of the knee joint prosthesis for mimicking the kinematic performance of the healthy knee. However, study on the functional performance after using these rotational designed arthroplasties was still scarce. So, the purpose of this study aims to evaluate the differences in the proprioception, balance function and gait performance among different designs of the knee arthroplasties with mobile bearing (MB), medial congruent (MC) and posterior stabilized (PS) design. This study is divided into the retrospective and prospective parts. Investigators will enroll the patients who already replaced their knee joint by one of the above knee arthroplasties for the retrospective part; other patients who plans to receive one of the above knee arthroplasties, twenty participants for each design and each part. The assessment of proprioception, balance function and gait performance will be performed before the knee arthroplasty, and followed at the post-surgery time points of six weeks and three months. The one-way ANOVA will be used to compare the group differences in the retrospective part, and the two-way mixed model ANOVA for the prospective part. Ultimately, the results of this study could help to have better knowledge of the treatment effects from the different designed knee arthroplasties.
