Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthrosis is a chronic disease, characterized by dystrophic and degenerative changes in TMJ with aseptic inflammatory process. The prevelence of TMJ arthrosis in patients with a history of other TMJ disorders varies between 32-39 % of cases. Complex treatment of TMJ arthrosis includes pharmacotherapy, physiotherapy, exercise therapy for TMJ and massage of the masticatory muscles, manual therapy, prosthodontics, but these treatment methods are not always lead to a desired result.The aim of the study is to improve the traditional treament method of patients suffering from TMJ arthrosis by using elastic tapes (kinesiotapes).Materials and methods. 68 patients were examined at the «Galaxy» Beauty Institute Clinic (St. Petersburg) and FSBEI HE SamSMU MOH Russia (Samara). Comparison group of patients was prescribed pharmacotherapy, exercise therapy for TMJ and massage of masticatory muscles, while for the main group of patients the same therapy was enhanced by elastic bands. The effectiveness of therapy was evaluated using a visual-analog pain scale (VAS), mouth opening width and electromyography of the masticatory muscles.Results. Noticeable positive effect in the main group of patients was observed on the 21th day of treatment. By this time patients noticed significant decrease in pain intensity from 8,77±0,8 to 5,19±0,5 (Z1-4=-5,88; p1-4=0,0015) points as well as increase in mouth opening width from 21-23 to 33-35 mm. Similar changes in the comparison group of patients were achieved only by the beginning of fifth week of treatment (Z1-6=-5,58; p1-6=0,0015). The range of mouth opening width increased from 21-23 to 27-29 mm. Amplitude of masticatory muscles biopotentials in maximum intercuspation in patients of the main group almost approached to the normal results by the beginning of the fourth week. In patients of the comparison group the amplitude of masticatory muscles biopotentials remained reduced even by the end of observations (42 day of the study).Conclusion. Thus, the combination of elastic bands applications with conventional treatment methods of TMJ arthrosis greatly increases the effectiveness of therapy and allows to relief pain and normalize bioelectric activity of masticatory muscles in a relatively short time. Due to the simplicity of elastic bands application it is possible to teach patients the technique of self-applying bands and recommend to use them as a prevention of relapse of TMJ arthrosis.","PeriodicalId":110947,"journal":{"name":"Russian Osteopathic Journal","volume":"431 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116004846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurobehavioral disorder that occurs in 5-8 % of school-age children and persists into adulthood in 60 % of cases. At the present stage of neurology development, a number of significant drawbacks have been noted in the pharmacological correction of ADHD: the need for a long course of medication, the problem of polypragmasia, side effects and allergic reactions. Thus, there is a real need to develop non-drug ways to correct ADHD. Previous studies have demonstrated a sufficiently high clinical efficacy of transcranial micropolarization of the brain in the treatment of this patients group. Some studies have shown the effectiveness of the osteopathic correction use, which can increase the effectiveness of selective and sustained attention in children with ADHD. At the same time, the question of the possibility of combining various non-drug methods of treatment is quite acute.The aim of the study is to research the feasibility of osteopathic correction using in combination with transcranial micropolarization of the brain in the complex treatment of children with ADHD.Materials and methods. A controlled randomized trial was conducted in the period from January 2018 to February 2020 in Ekaterinburg and St. Petersburg. 68 patients with the established diagnosis attention deficit hyperactivity disorder aged 6 to 10 years, including 42 boys and 26 girls, were under observation. All patients, depending on the used treatment method, were divided by simple randomization into two comparable groups: the main group — 34 people, 22 boys and 12 girls, average age 7,4±1,2 years; the control group consisted of 34 people, 20 boys and 14 girls, with an average age 7,8±1,1 years. Patients received drug therapy with hopanthenic acid in age-related dosages (30 mg/kg body weight), course duration of 2 months, and transcerebral micropolarization of the brain. Each patient received one course of micropolarization, consisting of 15 sessions, the duration of each session was 30 minutes. Patients of the main group received osteopathic correction in addition to the therapy described above. In total, 4 sessions of 60 minutes each were held. The interval between the first sessions was 10 days, between subsequent sessions — from 10 to 14 days. There were evaluated the osteopathic status, the severity of ADHD manifestations and the short-term memory indicators, and the type and properties of the nervous system were determined for all patients, regardless of the group, before the start of treatment, as well as after the completion of the course of complex therapy.Results. After the therapy, there was a statistically significant decrease (p<0,05) in scores quantity on the ADHD assessment scale (ICD-10 criteria) both in the main and in the control groups, which reflects a decrease in the severity of clinical manifestations of this syndrome and demonstrates the effectiveness of the used therapy methods.

Congenital dysplasia of the hip joints is one of the main among congenital diseases of the musculoskeletal system in children and requires a long period of treatment, including in a hospital settings. Standard methods of treatment contain the orthopedic and rehabilitation measures: the use of abduction splints, a complex of physiotherapy exercises, general massage, the use of various physiotherapeutic procedures. Osteopathic correction is not included in the standards of care for this category of patients. At the same time, these standard treatment methods do not always give a desired result, and sometimes even lead to the development of complications. All this facts determines the need to search for additional therapeutic techniques.The aim of the study is to research the possible effectiveness of osteopathic correction as part of the complex treatment of children in the first year of life with hip dysplasia.Materials and methods. The study included 34 children with a diagnosis of hip dysplasia (ICD code-10 — Q65.8). The patients were randomly divided into 2 equivalent groups: study and control. Participants in both groups received standard treatment; the participants of the main group additionally underwent osteopathic correction of the revealed somatic dysfunctions. Before and after the course of treatment, the patients' osteopathic status, the disease clinical manifestations, and the X-ray data of the hip joints were assessed.Results. The inclusion of osteopathic correction in the complex with standard treatment procedures for children of the first year of life with hip dysplasia is accompanied by a statistically significant decrease in the detection frequency of the somatic dysfunctions at the regional and local levels. The median duration of standard orthopedic treatment also decreases (p<0,05).Conclusion.

The 2019 coronavirus infection (COVID-19) pandemic caused by a novel coronavirus strain (SARS-CoV-2) posed a serious threat to public health around the world. Postcoid syndrome (post-COVID-19 condition, according to ICD-10 code U09 State after COVID-19 or Postcoid state, Postcoid syndrome) is a pathological condition after a coronavirus infection, accompanied by cardio-respiratory, neurological, musculoskeletal, metabolic disorders. According to a number of studies, osteopathic methods of correction increase the lymph flow, immunological protection of the body, help to reduce pain, reduce the restriction of mobility in the chest, and therefore improve the function of external respiration. There are practically no studies that allow assessing the effect of osteopathic correction methods on the function of external respiration at the modern evidence-based level in patients who have undergone COVID pneumonia.The aim was to study the effect of a single procedure of osteopathic correction on the function of external respiration in patients during the rehabilitation period after coronavirus pneumonia.Materials and methods. On the basis of the Primorsky Institute of Vertebroneurology and Manual Medicine (Vladivostok) the rehabilitation of patients after coronavirus pneumonia was carried out using osteopathic correction. The study included 73 patients over the age of 60 years with varying degrees of lung damage and impaired respiratory function. To assess the function of external respiration, spirometry was performed and the vital capacity of the lungs was assessed; pulse oximetry was performed to measure the saturation of arterial blood hemoglobin with oxygen (SpO2). Osteopathic testing and treatment were carried out according to clinical guidelines, and the biomechanics of the chest was additionally investigated. The Statistica-10 software package was used for the statistical analysis of the obtained data.Results. Osteopathic examination revealed the presence of local somatic dysfunctions in 98,8 % of patients (spinal dysfunction, rib dysfunction, diaphragm dysfunction). 87,6 % of patients were diagnosed with regional somatic dysfunctions of thoracic region. Global somatic dysfunctions were diagnosed in 78,4 % of patients. After a single procedure of osteopathic correction, patients had a statistically significant improvement of the external respiration function, manifested in an increase in vital capacity from 78,27±2,79 to 85,36±3,38 % (p=0,0006). Also, the effectiveness of osteopathic correction is confirmed by a significant increase in the average hemoglobin saturation of arterial blood with oxygen. Thus, in patients with low SpO2 levels, the index increased from 94,21±0,21 to 95,09±0,3 % (p=0,02). After a single osteopathic correction procedure, the number of patients with local somatic dysfunctions decreased from 98,8 to 17,7 %; global somatic dysfunctions were revealed only in 16,3 % of patients.

The appearance of COVID-19 has set tasks for healthcare professionals related to the rapid diagnosis and provision of medical care to patients. Currently, intensive study of the clinical and epidemiological features of the disease continues, and of the development of new means of its prevention and treatment. At the same time, it is necessary not only to provide medical care in the acute period of the disease, but also to carry out rehabilitation measures for the consequences of a coronavirus infection. In accordance with the approved clinical recommendations, osteopathic correction in the acute period of an infectious disease is contraindicated. However, there is a potential interest of the possibility of osteopathic correction methods use during the period of convalescence, as well as within the framework of rehabilitation measures after a new coronavirus infection.At the same time, for objective reasons, there is no data on the structure of somatic dysfunctions in this group of patients in the literature. All of the above has predetermined the purpose of the research.The aim of the study is to draw up a map of the most common somatic dysfunctions and analyze their relationship with other subjective and objective manifestations of the disease based on the data of the osteopathic status assessing of patients who have undergone a new coronavirus infection COVID-19.Materials and methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted on the basis of Samara medical and sanitary unit № 2 and on the basis of the Saint-Petersburg «City Mariinsky Hospital» in the period from May 2020 to March 2021. There were 70 patients under observation in the rehabilitation department who had undergone a new coronavirus infection COVID-19. There were assessed the osteopathic status of all patients (by an osteopathic doctor with using personal protective equipment) and the level of anxiety; the data was copied from medical documentation.Results. Somatic dysfunctions of all three levels of manifestation are revealed in patients with the new coronavirus infections during the convalescence period. The global and regional somatic dysfunctions were distributed almost equally (45,7 and 54,3 %, respectively) in the structure of dominant somatic dysfunctions in patients with new coronavirus infections during the convalescence period. Patients with new coronavirus infections during the convalescence period are characterized by medium and high levels of both situational and personal anxiety.
