Study on balance and postural control sccording to the stabilometry in indoor skydivers: a cross-sectional study
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: The wind tunnel is a compression cabin through which a stream of air rises homogeneously, generated by fans. To perform different acrobatics, indoor skydivers have to change their body ...
Effects of diacutaneous fibrolysis in patients with tension-type headache: a randomized controlled trial
(Public Library of Science, 2023)
Background: Manual therapy appears to be effective for the relief of tension-type headache (TTH), just as diacutaneous fibrolysis (DF) has shown to be a beneficial technique for the relief of symptoms ...
Foam rolling vs. proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching in the hamstring flexibility of amateur athletes: control trials
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: the use of stretching techniques in the sports world is frequent and common thanks to their many effects. One of the main benefits of stretching is an increased range of motion (ROM). Recently, ...
Precision of ultrasound-guided versus anatomical palpation-guided needle placement of the ulnar nerve at the cubital tunnel: a cadaveric study
(MDPI, 2023)
Percutaneous electrical stimulation has been performed for years with only the assistance of anatomical landmarks. The development of real-time ultrasonography guidance has improved the precision and ...
Effects of occipital-atlas stabilization on the upper cervical spine rotation combinations: an in vitro study
(Springer Nature, 2023)
The purpose of this study is to compare axial rotation range of motion for the upper cervical spine during three movements: axial rotation, rotation + flexion + ipsilateral lateral bending and ...
Effect of load distribution on trunk muscle activity with lunge exercises in amateur athletes: cross-sectional study
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: The effect of load distribution applied to the trunk musculature with lunge exercises has yet to be determined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of load placement using ...
Effectiveness of a multicomponent training program on physical performance and muscle quality in older adults: a quasi-experimental study
(MDPI, 2023)
Aging is associated with a decrease in functional capacity, manifested by a loss of strength, physical performance and muscle quality. Multicomponent training (MCT), characterized by the combination of ...
Changes over time in the strain on the inferior ilio-femoral ligament during a sustained 5-minute high-force long axis distraction mobilization: a cadaveric study
(Elsevier, 2023)
Objective: To analyze the changes over time in the strain on the inferior ilio-femoral (IIF) ligament when a constant high-force long-axis distraction mobilization (LADM) was applied over 5 minutes. ...
