DN has shown potential to improve spasticity by stimulating spastic muscle tissue with a stainless steel monofilament needle. Objective To determine the effects of dry needling (DN) on muscle spasticity in adults with neurological disorders. Methods Literature search of Cochrane, CINAHL, Google Scholar, and ProQuest was conducted. Search limits: English, journals, human subjects, 2009–2019. Selection criteria: Adults 18+ with neurological disorders and interventions included dry needling as treatment for spasticity. Two reviewers, for methodological quality based on Oxford Levels of Evidence, independently assessed each study. Results Ten articles met the selection criteria, all showing reductions in spasticity. Secondary outcomes were reported with improvements at the impairment level including muscle length, range of motion, pain, and motor performance (Fugl-Meyer motor subscale); and at the functional level including hand dexterity (box and block test), balance (computerized dynamic posturography) and mobility (TUG). Conclusions There is low to moderate evidence in support of using DN to decrease spasticity in adults with neurological disorders, specifically in those with a history of stroke. Limitations included lack of follow-up and small sample sizes. Further high-level research is required to determine long-term outcomes of DN in spastic muscles. There was a short-term decrease in spasticity of target muscles after the performance of DN. Evidence included improvements at the impairment and functional levels after the use of DN. DN poses as a safe, feasible option to improve spasticity and impact other targeted outcomes in adults with neurological disorders.","PeriodicalId":46541,"journal":{"name":"Physical Therapy Reviews","volume":"26 1","pages":"380 - 385"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10833196.2021.1933339","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59715722","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}

It is diagnosed using high-tech methods that are unavailable to the general population. Thus, it is useful to use low-cost and easily applicable sarcopenia screening methods such as SARC-F or SARC-CalF. However, it is unknown whether sarcopenia, as identified by these methods, is associated with a higher risk of hospitalization in the older adults population. Thus, this systematic review protocol aims to determine whether there is an association between sarcopenia, as diagnosed by the SARC-F and SARC-CalF methods, and hospitalization in community-dwelling older adults. Methods: This study follows the criteria proposed by Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Protocols. We will include studies with an observational design, conducted with community-dwelling older adults (≥ 60 years), that used SARC-F/SARC-CalF as screening tool for sarcopenia, and that presented hospitalization indicators. The following databases will be used: PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, and Lilacs. Studies will be selected based on title, abstract, and full text. The quality of the included studies will be assessed using “Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation” tool. The risk of bias will be assessed using Downs and Black tool. Results: The results of this research may deepen our knowledge of these two methods and their use for identifying and monitoring sarcopenia. Conclusions: Our research will especially benefit if these tools can discriminate the potential risk of hospitalization in older adults and so contribute to reducing early mortality.","PeriodicalId":46541,"journal":{"name":"Physical Therapy Reviews","volume":"26 1","pages":"391 - 397"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10833196.2021.1917843","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41357975","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}

However, it is uncertain which SROM(s) is/are best suited for research and clinical practice. Objectives The aims were to (1) identify clinimetrically sound SROMs for QoL in patients with painful TMD and (2) determine if impaired QoL has diagnostic or prognostic value for this population. Methods PRISMA guidelines were utilized during a systematic search of: CINAHL, Dentistry & Oral Science Source, PsychALL, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Studies involving adult populations with painful TMD who were assessed for QoL were included. Risks of biases were examined. Results 23 studies were included; 8 clinimetric studies primarily validated language translation whereas other studies were diagnostic (n = 14) or prognostic (n = 1). Of the eight identified SROMs assessed, only the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP)-49, OHIP-TMD (OHIP-22), OHIP-14, and the SF-36 are valid and reliable in painful TMD. In regards to the diagnostic studies, both region- and non-region-specific QoL SROMs associated presence of TMD with poor QoL. Study heterogeneity prohibited meta-analysis. The SF-12 demonstrated prognostic capabilities. Conclusion For region-specific SROMs, the OHIP-49, -TMD/-22, and −14 are available to clinicians in multiple languages to capture QoL in patients with painful TMD. For clinicians interested in overall QoL, the SF-36 was found to be valid in this population.

Aim The aim of this narrative review is to explore the effectiveness of immersive VR interventions in the management of musculoskeletal conditions. Methods A literature search was carried out on the following databases: Pubmed, Scopus and Medline using the following keywords: Virtual Reality and Pain. Studies of any design were included if they reported clinical outcomes following an immersive VR intervention for individuals with musculoskeletal pain.

Only five randomized controlled trials were found. Outcome measures included but were not limited to pain, range of motion and disability. Conclusion Although the current findings are promising and demonstrate that immersive VR interventions may have a useful role in musculoskeletal management and rehabilitation, no conclusive clinical recommendations can be made based on the low quality of available research.

Methods All studies were identified from electronic databases from 2005 to 2020. All articles were reviewed, and data were extracted independently by two reviewers.

After screening, twelve experimental studies comprising three case studies, six quasi-experimental, and three RCTs were selected. Four studies were rated as good, and two studies were rated as fair for the methodology quality of the quasi-experimental study. All three RCT studies scored 5/10 or higher on the PEDro scale. A wide range of training parameters were found for HIIT training. Improvement of VO2peak was reported in seven studies.

Research in other populations at risk for knee injury, including young, active populations, has included core muscle considerations.

Objectives The objectives of this narrative literature review were to determine whether: 1) core training has been beneficial for older adults without knee osteoarthritis, and 2) core activation and/or stabilization have been integrated into the treatment recommendations for patients with knee osteoarthritis to improve their gait and functional ability. Major Findings Although core training has been safe and beneficial in older adults to address balance, fall risk, and mobility, the standard of care approach for treating knee osteoarthritis continues to be either joint/extremity specific or generalized to include more whole-body activity (e.g. cardiovascular training). Some early evidence has shown a relationship between core strength and transversus abdominis muscle integrity; however, using core activation and/or stabilization as an intervention for persons with knee osteoarthritis has not yet been reported. Conclusions Despite findings that core training is beneficial for other populations at risk for or rehabilitating from various knee pathologies, investigations that show it is safe and effective in older adults has not been adapted to/incorporated into treatment recommendations for those with knee osteoarthritis. Early results indicate a relationship between core muscle dimensions, strength, and knee osteoarthritis; however, no interventional studies have yet been published.
