Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a primary cause of pain and disability.

Mechanical diagnosis and therapy (MDT) is a suitable approach for CLBP.

Improvements with MDT in CLBP are similar to other physical therapy approaches.

Patient education, physical exercise, and weight maintenance constitute the first-line knee osteoarthritis treatment approach.

There is still neglect of evidence-based strategies in clinical practice.

Less than 40% of patients with knee OA receive first-line treatment.

The use of adjunct therapies, isolated or in association with gold-standard treatments, is questionable.

Surgery is typically a last resort for the management of knee osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis promoted distinct modulation on MMP-2 in the quadriceps versus patellar tendon.

There is peri-articular tissue adaptation to resistance training in osteoarthritis.

Resistance training downregulates MMP-2 in quadriceps tendon, while in the patellar tendon its effects are limited.

Understanding extracellular matrix degeneration is crucial for rehabilitation purposes of osteoarthritis.

Women with PFP present worse performance in functional tests than an age-matched control group.

Investigated functional tests are reliable in women with or without PFP.

Investigated functional tests do not seem to be valid tools to identify functional limitations due to anterior knee pain.

Toddlers demonstrated similar vertical loading rates and footstrike pattern when compared to adults.

Toddlers demonstrated a greater cadence and shorter stride length than adults.

Adults need not to modify the running biomechanics according to the posture in toddlers.

The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia-11 assesses the kinesiophobia construct.

The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia-11 is a consistent and reliable questionnaire.

The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia-11 showed improvement in kinesiophobia after an exercise-based intervention in patients with fibromyalgia.

Patients having breast reconstruction are not routinely referred to physical therapy

The main reason for referral to physical therapy are complications after surgery

Current practice does not consider limitations specific to each reconstruction type

Patients in Brazil have three times more appointments compared to the UK

FGA-Brazil showed moderate to high correlation with gait and balance tests.

FGA-Brazil differentiate between older adults with high and low concern about falls.

FGA-Brazil is able to predict future falls with high accuracy in the older population.

The optimum cutoff score of the FGA-Brazil for predicting falls is ≤22.

FGA-Brazil did not exhibit ceiling and floor effects.

Sensory disorders in cerebral palsy are associated with lower activity performance.

Sensory disorders in cerebral palsy are associated with lack of independence.

Sensory disorders in cerebral palsy may limit motor actions impacting activity.

Sensory disorders in cerebral palsy should be addressed in rehabilitation.

Living with a lymphoedema is an emotional challenge.

Living with a lymphoedema is to adapt your life to the new situation.

Subjects with primary lymphoedema perceive lack of clinical care.

Subjects with cancer-related lymphoedema suffer a greater psychological impact.

The experience of living with LE is more dependent on its location than on its cause.

Nepali women appear to have variations in pelvic floor muscle function.

Weaker and thinner pelvic floor muscles are not always associated with a greater stage of prolapse.

A larger hiatal area is associated with a greater stage of prolapse.

This study will apply scapular movement training in individuals with shoulder pain.

Scapular kinematics, EMG and clinical outcomes will be assessed.

Results will contribute to the evidence-based practice of scapular focused-approach.
