Highlights

  • Both TENS and IFC have been indicated to reduce pain intensity.

  • TENS and IFC have similar effects on pain intensity.

  • Physical therapists could choose either TENS or IFC and expect similar treatment effects.

Development of postural control and maturation of sensory systems in children of different ages a cross-sectional study
Cristina dos Santos Cardoso de Sá, Catarina Costa Boffino, Renato Teodoro Ramos, Clarice Tanaka
Braz J Phys Ther. 2018;22:70-6
39
Highlights

  • This study has promotes a better understanding on the evolution of stability, functional maturation of sensorial integration and postural adjustments in children.

  • This study has combined biomechanical and motor control concepts, discussing the parameters separately stability and postural adjustments.

  • This study indicated Postural stability and adjustments were associated with age and were influenced by sensory manipulation and seven-year-olds seem to go through a period of differentiated singularity in postural control.

Prevalence of knee osteoarthritis in former athletes: a systematic review with meta-analysis
Fernanda O. Madaleno, Bruna A. Santos, Vanessa L. Araújo, Vinicius C. Oliveira, Renan A. Resende
Braz J Phys Ther. 2018;22:437-51
35
Highlights

  • Prevalence of knee OA in former athletes was 30.0% (95% CI 20.0 to 40.0%).

  • Low-quality evidence suggests that this is likely to change with high-quality studies.

  • Diagnostic criteria for knee OA and sport modality may impact on estimated prevalence.

Isometric muscle strength in children and adolescents using Handheld dynamometry: reliability and normative data for the Brazilian population
Lígia Maria Tezo Daloia, Marisa Maia Leonardi-Figueiredo, Edson Zangiacomi Martinez, Ana Claudia Mattiello-Sverzut
Braz J Phys Ther. 2018;22:474-83
32
Highlights

  • Boys develop more pronounced isometric muscular strength starting at 10 years of age and it peaks at 14 and 15 years.

  • The Handheld dynamometer has excellent inter-rater reliability and an intra-rater agreement for all muscle groups tested.

  • The development of muscle strength for the Brazilian population is similar to that observed in the northern hemisphere.

Advancing practice for back pain through stratified care (STarT Back)
Gail Sowden, Jonathan Charles Hill, Lars Morso, Quninette Louw, Nadine Elizabeth Foster
Braz J Phys Ther. 2018;22:255-64
32
Highlights

  • The STarT Back stratified care approach involves the use of a prognostic screening tool and matched treatments.

  • Two UK studies have demonstrated improved clinical outcomes and cost savings in the National Health Service.

  • Studies testing this approach in other countries are needed to adapt the approach to their own healthcare system.

  • A number of potential obstacles to implementing stratified care in high- and low-and-middle-income settings are emerging.

  • Evidence based innovations and strategies to overcome these obstacles and support successful implementation are discussed.

Do hip muscle weakness and dynamic knee valgus matter for the clinical evaluation and decision-making process in patients with patellofemoral pain?
Nayra Deise dos Anjos Rabelo, Paulo Roberto Garcia Lucareli
Braz J Phys Ther. 2018;22:105-9
31
Highlights

  • Hip muscle weakness in PFP patients may be consequence and not the cause of pain.

  • Pain and disability may not be associated with kinematics after treatment.

  • Hip muscle weakness may have no causal relationship with dynamic knee valgus.

  • The mechanical factors that may impair the management of PFP are likely to be overestimated.

  • PFP patients should be treated on a biopsychosocial approach.

Poliana do Amaral Benfica, Larissa Tavares Aguiar, Sherindan Ayessa Ferreira de Brito, Luane Helena Nunes Bernardino, Luci Fuscaldi Teixeira-Salmela, Christina Danielli Coelho de Morais Faria
Braz J Phys Ther. 2018;22:355-69
31
Highlights

  • Most of the studies included in this review showed adequate methodological quality.

  • There is information only on the reference values for muscle strength measured with dynamometers/myometers.

  • The meta-analysis provided reference values for the strength of 14 muscle groups.
