The Brazilian Journal of Physical Therapy (BJPT) is the official publication of the Brazilian Society of Physical Therapy Research and Graduate Studies (ABRAPG-Ft). It publishes original research articles on topics related to the areas of physical therapy and rehabilitation sciences, including clinical, basic or applied studies on the assessment, prevention, and treatment of movement disorders.

CiteScore measures average citations received per document published. Read more
SRJ is a prestige metric based on the idea that not all citations are the same. SJR uses a similar algorithm as the Google page rank; it provides a quantitative and qualitative measure of the journal's impact.
SNIP measures contextual citation impact by wighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field.
- •
HIIT can benefits the HRV, especially in healthy and MetS subjects.
- •
The HIIT can be used in cardiovascular rehabilitation and prevention.
- •
Future randomized clinical trials are needed to confirm the effectiveness of HIIT.
- •
Confidence intervals (CI) measure the uncertainty around effect estimates.
- •
Frequentist 95% CI: we can be 95% confident that the true estimate would lie within the interval.
- •
Bayesian 95% CI: there is a 95% probability that the true estimate would lie within the interval.
- •
Decision-making should not be made considering only the dichotomized interpretation of CIs.
- •
Training and education may enhance knowledge related to understanding and interpreting CIs.
- •
Less than one-third of physical therapy trials reported confidence intervals.
- •
The prevalence observed is lower than equivalent analyses in other disciplines.
- •
Analysis showed consistent increases in the proportion of trials that used confidence intervals with time.
- •
The prevalence of dyspnea after a stroke was 44%.
- •
Dyspnea is associated with activity limitations and restrictions in community participation after a stroke.
- •
Stroke survivors, who had dyspnea, were six times more likely to report activity limitations and two times more likely to report restrictions in social participation.
- •
ICUs using MV weaning protocols frequently had physical therapists perform the procedure.
- •
When physical therapists decided on extubation, they were specifically assigned to the ICU.
- •
Physical therapists being available 24h/day were associated with successful on the first attempt at extubation.
- •
Left side dominance has a prevalence for trunk asymmetry.
- •
Embryology factors could justify the development of left-right side dominance.
- •
It is unclear how neuro-abnormality is common in trunk asymmetry with left convexity.
- •
Crepitus is not associated with higher odds of having total knee replacement.
- •
Crepitus is associated with decreased quadriceps strength in patients with KOA.
- •
Crepitus does not affect physical function and quality of life of patients with KOA.
- •
Designing an effective single interprofessional session is possible.
- •
A single interprofessional session improves interprofessional attitude of students.
- •
A single interprofessional session improves readiness for working with the elderly.
- •
Forward head posture is not associated with muscular performance in either groups.
- •
Forward head posture does not explain pain and disability in CNP patients.
- •
The muscle size–endurance relationship is affected in CNP.
- •
Deep cervical muscles are selectively affected in the presence of CNP.
- •
Few studies have assessed long term effects of TPDN for individuals with SAPS.
- •
This study assesses the value of adding TPDN to routine treatments for SAPS.
- •
This study assesses the effect of TPDN on subsequent healthcare utilization.
- •
Results from this work could inform clinical management of SAPS.
