It is suggested to use combined training (aerobic + resistance) over aerobic training alone in people with COPD. (conditional recommendation, very low certainty of evidence).

It is not suggested either for or against adding IMT, NIV, or supplemental oxygen to combined training (aerobic + resistance) in people with COPD. (conditional recommendation, moderate to very low certainty of evidence).

It is suggested to use either interval training or continuous training in people with COPD. The committee was unable to recommend for or against the use of partitioned training and nonlinear training in people with COPD. (Conditional recommendation, moderate to very low certainty of evidence).

It is suggested to use maintenance exercise programs for people with COPD as an alternative to usual care after pulmonary rehabilitation programs. (Conditional recommendation, very low certainty of evidence).

It is suggested to use minimal resource exercise training (especially with elastic resistance) in people with COPD as an alternative to conventional training. (Conditional recommendation, very low certainty of evidence).

Clinically, dry cupping therapy is often believed to reduce pain and improve functional capacity in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Dry cupping therapy was not superior to sham cupping for women with knee osteoarthritis.

Dry cupping therapy and sham cupping showed similar and small within-group improvements in pain, function, and quality of life.

From a national primary care perspective, around 1 % of people with LBP were referred to physical therapy.

The amount of time between referral and being seen by physical therapists ranged from 17 to 261 days.

The overall rate of physical therapy visits to manage LBP was 1.28 per 1000 people.

Femoral Derotation surgery is often advised to treat in-toeing in cerebral palsy.

Overall results demonstrate improved gait function.

A clear, uniform surgical indication could not be determined.

Including the physical therapist in charge in the decision can be advised.

49.1 % of adults with DCD had co-occurring executive function (EF) deficits.

Cold EF deficits were more prevalent than hot emotion-related deficits.

Co-occurring EF deficits contribute to poor emotional, mental, and overall well-being.

EF should be evaluated in DCD care plan.

BT with PFMT are important techniques in the treatment of women with overactive bladder. The combined therapy plays a fundamental role in improving irritative urinary symptoms and PFM function.

Patients' motivation and adherence to BT and PFMT are essential for therapeutic success.

BT with PFMT are easily reproducible non-invasive interventions, being the first-choice treatment for OAB with proven efficacy, and low cost and risk for women.

Physical activity and pain diaries are the most common contents in reviewed apps.

Most apps lack professional details and science-based evaluation.

Few apps are free, posing potential cost barriers for pain management.

Many apps focus solely on single pain management approaches.

This is the first systematic review on the topic.

These exercises seem to be promising to improve motor skills rehabilitation of deaf children.

Low-certainty evidence supports the use of these exercises to rehabilitate deaf children.

This review provides implications for clinical practice and future trials on the topic.

Individuals with COPD have a higher fall risk, but studies predicting falls are scarce.

Falls were associated with greater center of pressure displacement post-effort.

The more challenging the assessed postural balance, the better the prediction.

Mini-BESTest scores did not reflect fall history in moderate-to-severe COPD.

Challenging balance tests seem to better identify fall risk in severe COPD.

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy can lead to forefoot deformity.

A foot-specific intervention did not mitigate forefoot deformity.

26 % of participants had progression of forefoot deformity.

Change in bone mineral density predicted forefoot deformity progression.

Low-intensity exercise reduces hyperalgesia via µ-opioid receptor activation.

Exercise reduces escape latency in MCAS, improving cognitive pain response.

Naloxone blocked the analgesic and cognitive effects induced by exercise.

Exercise decreased IL-4 and BDNF in the PFC; naloxone prevented these reductions.

In the brainstem, naloxone reduced IL-4, IL-10, and BDNF levels.

It is unclear which physical therapy modality works best for patients with PVD.

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy is effective in managing PVD on its own.

Hydrotherapy combined with exercise was also effective in managing PVD.

Older cyclists and males have a significantly higher lifetime prevalence of hEAMC.

EAMC in cyclists affects mainly the quadriceps muscles.

EAMC in cyclists occurs mainly in the 4th quarter during a race.

Risk factors for hEAMC: experience, chronic disease, allergies, medications, past injury.

The majority of the sample had an internal locus of control.

There was no significant change in the locus at baseline and endpoint of observation.

Locus, treatment, and interaction between them are not predictors of pain and functional ability.

The locus did not influence the global perceived effect.
