- •
To improve research efficiency, it is crucial to identify knowledge gaps and establish research priorities.
- •
This scoping review compiled all physical therapy research priorities into a global agenda for physical therapy research.
- •
Future physical therapy research should focus on 9 internationally applicable priorities.
- •
Children with cerebral palsy reach lower VO2peak values compared with typically developing peers.
- •
Low aerobic fitness has immediate and long-term negative health consequences.
- •
Promoting a healthy lifestyle and increase of habitual physical activities is warranted.
- •
Intersectoral teamwork is required to overcome barriers to being physically active.
- •
Biomechanical impairments in patellofeomoral osteoarthritis are sex specific.
- •
Joint moment impulses of anti gravity muscles are lower in women with PF OA.
- •
Recommendations from male-dominated cohorts may not apply to women with PF OA.
- •
Sex as an effect modifier should be considered in future research.
- •
DVIs are prevalent and a risk factor for pediatric urinary tracts infections
- •
DVSS is a tool for assessing DVIs and there is no validated Spanish version
- •
DVSS-Sp could be used to assess DVIs and the effectiveness of treatments
- •
Results support the use of the DVSS-Sp in Spanish-speaking children
- •
FRT is impaired in those people who present with headache after a whiplash injury.
- •
The FRT demonstrated moderate accuracy to diagnose the presence of headache in this population.
- •
The cut-off value for considering FRT as positive is 31.5° in people with whiplash-associated disorders.
- •
The Brazilian Portuguese versions of S-EBPQ and EBP-COQ are valid instruments.
- •
The instruments have demonstrated adequate measurement properties.
- •
S-EBPQ-BR and EBP-COQ-BR are applicable to both nursing and healthcare students.
- •
The instruments detect changes in evidence-based practice skills in physical therapy students.
- •
The use of PBM or TENS was not effective for reducing pain intensity at rest of patients with chronic neck pain.
- •
The combination of PBM and TENS reduced pain intensity during movement in neck pain.
- •
The combination of PBM and TENS reduced local hyperalgesia in neck pain.
- •
The combination of PBM and TENS improved global perceived effect in neck pain.
- •
Isolated TENS reduced local and distant hyperalgesia in neck pain.
- •
MEP is related to symptoms and measures (i.e., PPT and TS) of central sensitization.
- •
Improvements in MEP are predictively associated with improvements in PPT.
- •
Optimal treatment for MEP with and without elevated MEP index scores is needed.
- •
Interactions between hip and foot factors predict the magnitude of foot pronation.
- •
These interactions of foot and hip factors are non-linear.
- •
The profiles help clinicians identify how these factors interact in walking.
- •
1 set of 10 repetitions of MWM caused small improvements in angular onset of pain.
- •
3 sets of 10 repetitions of MWM improved angular onset of pain.
- •
Those effects were observed with a group of patients who had predominantly chronic shoulder pain.
- •
Heart failure (HF) that causes fatigue and dyspnea at rest and during exercise.
- •
Maximum tests do not reflect limitations in activities of daily living.
- •
Activities of daily living performance is better predicted using functional tests.
- •
The cutoff point of the Glittre-ADL test can identify patients with severe HF.
- •
Glittre-ADL test is capable of predicting the prognosis of patients with HF.
- •
In a mixed spinal pain population, the BPI-IS has two factors of interest.
- •
Clinicians and researchers should use the BPI-IS with caution in this population.
- •
The tool has acceptable reliability, but we could not confirm validity.
