Pelvic floor muscle training is effective for improving women's sexual function after hysterectomy.
- •
The effects of pelvic floor muscle training on urinary symptoms and pelvic floor muscle strength are imprecise.
- •
Pelvic floor muscle training is unlikely to improve vaginal prolapse and quality of life.
- •
Risk stratification is an approach which is recommended in numerous guidelines for the management of back pain.
- •
This review found that risk stratification with matched treatment may be just as worthwhile as usual care for acute back pain, however the evidence is very uncertain.
- •
Further research is required to confirm the utility of risk stratification for acute back pain.
- •
Urge urinary incontinence can affect the lumbopelvic musculature.
- •
Urge urinary incontinence increases pelvic floor tone and stiffness.
- •
Pelvic floor disorders may be related to an altered state of lumbar and pelvic muscles.
- •

About 70 % of the trail runners reported previous injuries in the last 12 months.
- •
Knee and lower leg were the body regions most affected by running-related injuries.
- •
The 1 and 12-month cramp prevalence was 20 % and 36 %, respectively; main muscle: triceps surae.

Before starting to run on trails, 85 % of the trail runners practiced road running.
- •
Exercise and education programs can address some barriers to physical activity.
- •
Continuing to manage persistent knee pain and comorbidities is important.
- •
Reinforcing pain management strategies may improve physical activity participation.
- •
Clinicians could facilitate physical activity by referring to community groups.

A study on the measurement properties of the Fresno modified Test: Brazilian-Portuguese short version.
- •
The results show that the instrument is reliable to assess evidence-based practice (EBP) online.
- •
The Peritron™ manometer can accurately discriminate a weak or a strong pelvic floor muscles contraction in pregnant women.
- •
Peak maximal voluntary contraction showed a perfect ability to differentiate between weak/strong pelvic floor muscles contraction in pregnant women.
- •
Other variables presented excellent or good ability to discriminate a weak from a strong pelvic floor muscles contraction.
- •
Replacing sedentary time with moderate physical activity has a small protective effect on the prevalence of low back pain.
- •
Replacing time spent in light physical activities with moderate physical activity has a small protective effect on the prevalence of low back pain.
- •
Replacing sedentary time, light or moderate physical activity with vigorous physical activity was not associated with the prevalence of low back pain.
