Methods The cl inical researches of exercise therapy for knee osteoarthritis were summarized by reviewing l iterature concerned in recent years. Results Exercise therapy was extensively used in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis not only in hospital but also in community rehabil itation abroad. The main patterns of exercise therapy included muscle strengthening exercise, aerobic exercise and underwater exercise. It was capable of effectively improving patient’s independent l iving abil ity and l ive qual ity, and postproning the time of surgical intervention. But the long-term efficacy of exercise therapy was still under debate. Conclusion Exercise therapy is an effect method to treat knee osteoarthritis.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of behavior intervention through diets and exercises on blood glucose controlling in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and to provide the basis for GDM therapy. MethodsA total of 116 patients with GDM diagnosed and treated in the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between March 2011 and December 2012 were taken as our study objects, including 72 patients in the study group and 44 patients in the control group, based on their will. For patients in the study group, we carried out behavior interventions through diets and exercises, including dietary guidance, giving pamphlet and formulating exercise plan, while for patients in the control group, we only gave them oral guidance and publicity materials. The same questionnaire was used to collect all the patients' information. Follow-up was done once in every 3 days, and rechecking was performed 2 weeks later. The results of oral glucose tolerance test and the rate of pathoglycemia were compared in these groups before and after intervention. ResultsThe fasting blood glucose, 1- and 2-hour blood glucose were lowered after the behavior intervention in the study group (P<0.05), which were also significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05). Fasting blood glucose, 1- and 2-hour pathoglycemia was significantly lower in the study group than that in the control group and that before intervention (P<0.05). ConclusionCombination of diets and exercises can control levels of blood glucose in GDM patients, and is an important therapy for GDM.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of aerobic training, resistance training and aerobic training combined with resistance training on non-dialysis patients with chronic kidney diseases. MethodsPubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, EBSCO, Web of Science, VIP, WanFang Data and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of three types of exercise therapy on patients with chronic kidney disease from January 2012 to January 2022. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies; then, network meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.4 software and R software. ResultsA total of 22 RCTs involving 1 633 patients were included. The results of network meta-analysis showed that: compared with the control group, aerobic training, and resistance training reduced resting systolic blood pressure; aerobic training, resistance training reduced resting diastolic blood pressure; aerobic training reduced total cholesterol levels; aerobic training improved peak oxygen uptake; aerobic training combined with resistance training improved six-minute walking test. Aerobic training, resistance training, and aerobic training combined with resistance training improved glomerular filtration rate. The probability sorting results showed that aerobic training had the most significant effect on the improvement of peak oxygen uptake, C-reactive protein, total cholesterol, low-density lipoproteins, and high-density lipoproteins; resistance training had the most significant effect on the improvement of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and glomerular filtration rate; aerobic exercise combined with resistance training had the most significant effect on the improvement of body mass index, triglycerides, and six-minute walking test. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that aerobic training has an advantage in reducing total cholesterol levels and increasing peak oxygen uptake, resistance training has an advantage in improving blood pressure and glomerular filtration rate and aerobic training combined with resistance training has an advantage in improving walking ability of patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease.
Along with the illness progresses of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, their functional limitations such as decreased cardiopulmonary endurance, muscle loss, dysfunction of arteriovenous fistula, fatigue, and sleep disorders are increasingly prominent and urgently need to be resolved. Modern physiotherapy as a non-invasive and non-pharmacological therapy which can reduce the functional limitations of MHD patients, improves the patients’ exercise capacity and quality of life. Physical therapy techniques suitable for MHD patients include active and passive exercise therapy such as aerobic exercise, resistance exercise, breathing training, and muscle stretching, as well as physical agents therapy such as neuromuscular electrical stimulation, infrared, and low-frequency pulsed electromagnetic field. Choosing appropriate physical agents and exercise prescription can reduce the treatment risk and improve the efficacy.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of exercise therapy for patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) by network meta-analysis (NMA).MethodsThe PubMed, EBSCO, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCT) on exercise for patients with CLBP from inception to May, 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed risk of bias of included studies. Then, NMA was performed by Stata 15.1 software.ResultsA total of 79 RCTs involving 5 782 CLBP patients were included. The effect of exercise therapy on pain in patients with CLBP were in the following rankings: yoga (SMD=−1.25, 95%CI −1.87 to −0.64, P<0.000 1), health Qigong/Taichi (SMD=−1.12, 95%CI −1.87 to −0.64, P=0.002), sling exercise (SMD=−1.07, 95%CI −1.64 to −0.50, P<0.000 1), Mackenzie therapy (SMD=−1.05, 95%CI −1.68 to −0.42, P=0.001), pilates (SMD=−0.96, 95%CI −1.74 to −1.78, P=0.016), multimodal training (SMD=−0.80, 95%CI −1.33 to −0.27, P=0.003) and stabilisation/motor control (SMD=−0.62, 95%CI −1.03 to −0.21, P=0.003). The effect of exercise therapy on function in patients with CLBP were in the following rankings: Mackenzie therapy (SMD=−0.62, 95%CI −1.03 to −0.21, P=0.003), and yoga (SMD=−0.88, 95%CI −1.51 to −0.25, P=0.007). Clusterank results showed that Mackenzie therapy, yoga, pilates, sling exercise and multimodal training were similar in improving pain and physical function in patients with CLBP.ConclusionsThe current study shows that yoga, Mackenzie therapy, pilates, sling exercise and multimodal training constitute the optimal group for improving CLBP symptoms. Health Qigong/Taichi is second only to yoga in improving pain in patients with CLBP, which has great promotional value.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the efficacy of exercise therapy on functional and activity recovery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL).MethodsPubMed, EMbase, WanFang Data and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the efficacy of exercise therapy on functional and activity recovery after ACL from inception to May 2019. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 11 RCTs involving 602 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: 1 week (MD=3.07, 95%CI 1.37 to 4.77, P=0.000 4) and 3 weeks (MD=4.53, 95%CI 2.34 to 6.71, P<0.000 1) conventional exercise training rehabilitation effects were better than natural recovery under orthopedic routine care in promoting knee joint function recovery. The recovery effects of over 6 months neuromuscular training was significantly increased compared with conventional rehabilitation (MD=11.48, 95%CI 8.25 to 14.71, P<0.000 01). In addition, there was significant difference between open and closed chain exercise rehabilitation after more than 6 months rehabilitation training (MD=6.77, 95%CI 0.86 to 12.68, P=0.02).ConclusionsThe current evidence shows that over 6 months neuromuscular training significantly enhance the recovery of motor function after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. According to different reconstruction methods, individualized rehabilitation program is developed to maximize the recovery of knee joint function. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify above conclusions.
Objective To explore the effect of deep muscle stimulation (DMS) combined with exercise therapy on morphological changes of the trapezius muscle assessed by musculoskeletal ultrasound and the function for patients with neck and shoulder myofascial pain syndrome (MPS). Methods One hundred and twenty patients with neck and shoulder MPS admitted to the First People’s Hospital of Shuangliu District, Chengdu between August 2021 and December 2022 were randomly selected and divided into 4 groups. There were 30 cases in each group. Group A received modulated middle frequency electrotherapy, group B received modulated middle frequency electrotherapy combined with DMS, group C received modulated middle frequency electrotherapy combined with exercise therapy, and group D received modulated middle frequency electrotherapy, DMS combined with exercise therapy. Before treatment and after 4 weeks of treatment, shear wave elastography was used to detect the shear wave velocity (SWV) of the four groups, high frequency ultrasound was used to detect the muscle thickness of the trapezius muscle. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores, Neck Disability Index (NDI), modified Barthel Index (MBI), Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IADL), World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SDS) were also assessed to compare the therapeutic effects among the four groups of patients under different intervention methods. Results Before treatment, there was no significant difference in trapezius muscle SWV, trapezius muscle thickness, VAS, NDI, MBI, IADL, WHOQOL-BREF, SAS or SDS among the four groups (P>0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, there were significant differences in trapezius muscle SWV, VAS, NDI, WHOQOL-BREF in the physiological domain and psychological domain, SAS and SDS among the four groups (P<0.05), and the improvements of trapezius muscle SWV, WHOQOL-BREF in the physiological domain and psychological domain, and SDS in group D were more obvious than those in other groups (P<0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, there was no significant difference in MBI, IADL, or WHOQOL-BREF in the society domain and environmental domain among the four groups (P>0.05). Conclusion DMS combined with exercise therapy can significantly improve trapezius muscle elasticity, psychological state and quality of life of patients with neck and shoulder MPS.
