Profile of professionals working in intradialytic exercise programs in Brazil: a national survey
CONCLUSION: The majority of the few professionals that work in IEPs in Brazil are physiotherapists. Lack of resources was the most commonly reported barrier faced by survey respondents.PMID:35258074 | DOI:10.1590/2175-8239-JBN-2021-0264

Psychological therapies for temporomandibular disorders (TMDs)
CONCLUSIONS: We found mixed evidence for the effects of psychological therapies on painful temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). There is low-certainty evidence that CBT may reduce pain intensity more than alternative treatments or control when measured at longest follow-up, but not at treatment completion. There is low-certainty evidence that CBT may be better than alternative treatments, but not control, for reducing psychological distress at treatment completion and follow-up. There is low-certainty evidence that CBT may not be better than other treatments or control for pain disability outcomes. There is insufficient evi...

Nebulised hypertonic saline for cystic fibrosis
CONCLUSIONS: We are very uncertain if regular use of nebulised hypertonic saline by adults and children over the age of 12 years with CF results in an improvement in lung function after four weeks (three trials; very low-certainty evidence); there was no difference seen at 48 weeks (one trial; low-certainty evidence). Hypertonic saline improved LCI modestly in children under the age of six years. Evidence from one small cross-over trial in children indicates that rhDNase may lead to better lung function than hypertonic saline at three months; qualifying this, we highlight that while the study did demonstrate that the impro...

Constraint-induced movement therapy for rehabilitation of arm dysfunction after stroke in adults: an evidence-based analysis.
Authors: Medical Advisory Secretariat, Health Quality Ontario
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this evidence-based analysis is to determine the effectiveness and cost of CIMT for persons with arm dysfunction after a stroke.
CLINICAL NEED: CONDITION AND TARGET POPULATION A stroke is a sudden loss of brain function caused by the interruption of blood flow to the brain (ischemic stroke) or the rupture of blood vessels in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). A stroke can affect any number of areas including the ability to move, see, remember, speak, reason, and read and write. Stroke is the leading cause of adult neur...

Physical Activity and Intermittent Postconcussion Symptoms After a Period of Symptom-Limited Physical and Cognitive Rest.
CONCLUSIONS: Little high-quality evidence has addressed the effects of rest and treatment after sport-related concussion. Current evidence suggests that an initial period of rest appears to be beneficial. Further research is needed to evaluate the long-term outcomes of rest (including the quality and quantity of the rest). Low levels of exercise may benefit the athlete postinjury, but additional study is required to determine the optimal timing for initiation of treatment postinjury. Patients with cervical spine or vestibular dysfunction may benefit from rehabilitation techniques targeted at their individual symptom profil...

Usage evaluation of a resource to support evidence-based physiotherapy: the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro)
Conclusions: There was substantial use of the PEDro resource by the global physiotherapy community during 2010 and 2011. The provision of the PEDro search function in languages other than English may enhance accessibility.

Reply to the Letter to the Editor re “Disruption of Tumor Neovasculature by Microbubble Enhanced Ultrasound: A Potential New Physical Therapy of Anti-angiogenesis”
We agree that the in vivo murine melanoma studies of Wood et al. reported “an increase in the incidence of dilated capillaries and hemorrhage.” However, we have some disagreements about using the phrase “disruption of vascular walls” to describe the capillary hemorrhage and dilation in the Letter to the Editor. Please review the histologic figures in and , which indicated some mild capillary hemorrhage and dilation within the tumor. These vascular effects can usually be induced by sonoporation (sonopores) on the capillary wall because physiotherapy ultrasound (usually at an acoustic pressure of 1 MPa) was used to...

Efficacy and Safety of Needle Acupuncture for Treating Gynecologic and Obstetric Disorders: An Overview.
Conclusions: Evidence for the efficacy of needle acupuncture for treating the disorders evaluated remains inconclusive. The intervention showed promising results for reducing pelvic and back pain during pregnancy and climacteric vasomotor symptoms, although well-designed studies are needed to make the results more precise and reliable.

Validity and reliability of instruments aimed at measuring Evidence‐Based Practice in Physical Therapy: a systematic review of the literature
ConclusionIt seems that what constitutes a rigorously developed assessment instrument for EBP in physical therapy continues to be a challenge.

Autologous Growth Factor Injections in Chronic Tendinopathy.
Conclusions : Strong evidence indicates that autologous growth factor injections do not improve plantar fasciopathy pain or function when combined with anesthetic agents or when compared with corticosteroid injections, dry needling, or exercise therapy treatments. Furthermore, limited evidence suggests that PRP injections are beneficial. Except for 2 high-quality RCT studies, the rest were methodologically flawed. Additional studies should be conducted using proper control groups, randomization, blinding, and validated disability outcome measures for pain and function. Until then, the results remain speculative because ...
