BACKGROUND:Chronic low back pain (CLBP) significantly impairs function and productivity, emphasizing the need for effective solutions, with virtual reality (VR) emerging as a novel alternative for management. OBJECTIVE:The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine the effects of VR interventions on pain, disability and kinesiop...
In the poster, we presented a systematic review with meta-analysis aimed at determining differences in the short-term effects of virtual reality (VR) training on pain intensity and disability in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) and chronic neck pain (CNP). We searched PubMed, Scopus, and PEDro databases for relevant studies comparing VR t...
The effectiveness of exercise therapy is being increasingly studied in patients with fibromyalgia. The aim of our systematic review was to determine the effectiveness of different types of aerobic exercise programs for pain management in patients with fibromyalgia. The literature search was performed by two independent researchers in the PubMed, CI...
Premature death, chronic disease, and productivity loss can be reduced with the help of programs that promote a healthy lifestyle. Workplace health promotion programs have been shown to be an efficient way of improving employee health. These can also benefit employers by improving retention, reducing worker turnover, and lowering healthcare costs....
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a frequent knee condition. The aim of this study was to investigate strength, flexibility and postural control in people with and without PFP. Fifty-five participants between 14 and 54 years of age (PFP = 18, control group = 37) were included. Strength and flexibility for all trunk, hip, knee and ankle muscle groups wer...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to explore patients’ experience of patellofemoral pain (PFP), in order to help improve the mutual understanding between the patient and the physiotherapist and consequently enhance the efficacy of treatment.
METHODS: A qualitative study design with focus groups was used to explore patient experience prior to the...
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is often associated with impaired muscle strength, flexibility, and stability. It has been suggested that inter-leg asymmetries have an important role in increasing the risk of musculoskeletal injuries, including PFP. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify significant asymmetries and determine the effects of a symmetr...
Objective
Previous research suggests that muscle strength exercise is the most effective rehabilitation methods in patients with patellofemoral pain (PFP). This systematic review with meta-analysis compared the effects of Hip&Knee, Hip-only and Knee-only exercise programs on pain relief, muscle strength, and functional performance in patients with...
Uvod: Patelofemoralna bol (PFB) jedna je od najučestalijih boli u području koljena. Smanjena jakost okolnih mišićnih skupina može prouzrokovati lokalne biomehaničke promjene, koje posljedično pridonose razvoju PFB-a. Cilj je našeg rada identificirati, usporediti i procijeniti značajke maksimalne izometričke kontrakcije (MVIC) mišića kuka, trupa i g...
