Therefore, the authors aimed to explore whether core strengthening exercises in combination with hip exercises, when compared to a hip exercise programme and a control group, led to better improvements in balance in patients with hip osteoarthritis. In order to meet these aims, this paper reports the outcomes of a randomized, three-arm parallel, assessor-blinded, controlled clinical trial. Fifty-one participants awaiting a total hip replacement were recruited into this study. All patients were randomly allocated to a control, hip exercise group and hip and core exercise group. All participants were assessed for core muscle strength using a pressure biofeedback unit and balance using the four-stage balance test. The control group had no intervention. A 12-week hip and core exercise programme did not result in improvements over and above the hip exercise group in balance scores. However an improvement in core stability was noted for the hip and core exercise group (P = 0.001). Therefore, this study concluded that both exercise groups are resulted in improved balance with the core and hip exercise group noted to have added improvements, but the difference between the groups was not statistically significant.","PeriodicalId":14301,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Rehabilitation Research","volume":"46 3","pages":"252-257"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10280249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This motor dysfunction results in decreased physical activity (PA) and could be associated with obesity and sarcopenia. This study examined the association of daily PA levels with fatigue, physical function, and body composition in 22 adults with CP (age, 37.4 ± 14.7 years; Gross Motor Function Classification System level, I: 6, II: 16). The level of daily PA was divided into percent of sedentary behavior, light PA, and moderate-to-vigorous PA (%MVPA) per day. These outcomes were examined for correlation with the Fatigue Severity Scale, knee extension strength, comfortable and maximum walking speed, Timed-Up-and-Go-Test (TUG), and body fat percentage and skeletal muscle mass using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. An additional partial correlation analysis with sex and age adjustment was performed. The %MVPA correlated positively with comfortable walking speed (rs = 0.424, P  = 0.049) and negatively with TUG (rs = -0.493, P  = 0.020). The partial correlation revealed associations of %MVPA with maximum walking speed (r = 0.604, P  = 0.022) and TUG (r = -0.604, P  = 0.022). The results show that among adults with CP, increased PA is associated with improvements in mobility but not in perceived fatigue or body composition, regardless of sex and age. Maintaining and improving %MVPA and walking and balance ability in adults with CP have a positive impact on each other, and potentially on overall health management.</p>","PeriodicalId":14301,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Rehabilitation Research","volume":"46 3","pages":"277-283"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9924108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
