The purpose of this study was to investigate the short-term of Theracurmin dose and exercise type on pain, walking ability, and muscle function in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Twenty-five patients with knee osteoarthritis randomly selected to Theracurmin intake (T) group and Theracurmin in combined with exercise (T+E) group. T group (n= 13) was taken orally a capsule of 700 mg, 3 times per day, (total 2,100 mg, 35 mg/kg-body weight). T+E group (n= 12) performed aerobic training of 30-min walking and weight training for increasing leg muscular strength. After treatment, the number of steps, muscle mass, range of motion of …

Clinical Question:
Is there evidence to suggest intermittent cervical traction with cervical and scapular strengthening exercises is more effective in decreasing neck and arm pain when compared with cervical and scapular strengthening exercises alone in nonoperative patients with cervical radiculopathy?
Clinical Bottom Line:
There is currently inconsistent, high-quality evidence that suggests that the use of intermittent cervical traction in addition to strengthening exercises is more effective at decreasing pain in nonoperative patients with cervical radiculopathy when compared with strengthening alone. Future research should continue to examine long-term outcomes associated with cervical radiculopathy patients who use intermittent cervical traction as an …

Position statement: The International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) provides an objective and critical review regarding the timing of macronutrients in reference to healthy, exercising adults and in particular highly trained individuals on exercise performance and body composition. The following points summarize the position of the ISSN: 1. Nutrient timing incorporates the use ofmethodical planning and eating ofwhole foods, fortified foods and dietary supplements. The timing of energy intake and the ratio of certain ingestedmacronutrientsmay enhance recovery and tissue repair, augmentmuscle protein synthesis (MPS), and improvemood states following high-volume or intense exercise. 2. Endogenous glycogen stores are maximized by following …
Can Foot Exercises Alter Foot Posture, Strength, And Walking Foot Pressure Patterns In People With Severe Flat Foot?, Jeff Houck, Lacey Seidl, Austin Montgomery, Joshua Keefer, Miranda Walker

Introduction/Purpose: Muscle training muscle control for barefoot running (i.e. doming seated[DS] and standing[DSt]) and post foot and ankle injury (i.e. seated plantar flexion and inversion[SPFI]) are common. Although studies demonstrated improvement in foot posture (validated foot posture index [FPI]) immediately following a 4-week exercise program this was not assessed in people with flatfoot. Also, more rigorous assessment of foot function is lacking (i.e. foot posture, strength, and plantar pressure during walking). There is clearly a need for more rigorous clinical data on the effect of foot exercises. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the immediate effect of …

Physical Therapy Research Symposium
Study Design: Manual therapy and exercise in the treatment of patients with cervical radiculopathy: A protocol for a case series.
Background: Cervical radiculopathy (CR) most commonly originates from space occupying lesions, resulting in upper extremity radicular pain. Numerous physical therapy interventions are available for treating CR symptoms, however present practice patterns incorporate the application of a combination of interventions with inconclusive or mixed results. Clinical practice guidelines advocate for the utilization of thoracic manipulation to treat CR.
Objectives: It is hypothesized that the use of specific manual therapy techniques combined with exercise will have a positive effect on CR as …

From the Introduction:
No doubt remains that the adoption and maintenance of physical activity is important for overall health and blood glucose management in individuals with diabetes and prediabetes. Recently, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) published updated recommendations and precautions about physical activity and exercise in people with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes (1). Given the importance of these topics, it is worth discussing the key changes and updates included in this ADA position statement (PS).

Background:
People with multiple sclerosis (MS) have identified “wellness” and associated behaviors as a high priority based on “social media listening” undertaken by the National MS Society (i.e. the Society).
Objective:
The Society recently convened a group that consisted of researchers with experience in MS and wellness-related research, Society staff members, and an individual with MS for developing recommendations regarding a wellness research agenda.
Method:
The members of the group engaged in focal reviews and discussions involving the state of science within three approaches for promoting wellness in MS, namely diet, exercise, and emotional wellness.
Results:
That process informed a …
