Eficacia De La Técnica De Thrust En Rotación Del Atlas Con Contacto Indexial En Pacientes Con Cefalea Tensional: Estudio Piloto
2013
Introducción: La cefalea tensional (CT) es uno de los dolores de cabeza más comunes en la población. Su prevalencia es alta y puede influir en la calidad de vida, el entorno laboral y social, induciendo a la ingesta de fármacos y favoreciedo la cefalea crónica. Objetivos: Evaluar la eficacia de la técnica de thrust en rotación del atlas, con contacto indexial, (TTRA) en pacientes con CT. Material y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio piloto aleatorizado. La muestra estuvo formada por veintinueve pacientes (n=29), los cuales fueron aleatoriamente distribuidos en dos grupos; experimental (GE, n=12) y control (GC, n=17). Ambos grupos fueron evaluados con mediciones goniométricas antes y después de …
Papel de la eminencia talámica, el sistema olfativo principal y el sistema olfativo accesorio en la maduración sexual del encéfalo y las manifestacio…
2014
El desarrollo de sistema olfativo y la diferenciación sexual del encéfalo, tanto en el hombre como en los animales, están estrechamente relacionados. Actualmente, se describe la imbricación entre la formación del sistema olfativo principal y la migración de las neuronas que sintetizan la hormona liberadora de gonadotrofinas (GnRF). Estas neuronas GnRF se desplazan por los nervios olfatorios, desde la parte medial del epitelio nasal al bulbo olfatorio, continúan por el encéfalo rostral hasta alcanzar el hipotálamo anterior. Por otro lado, el síndrome de Kallmann es un trastorno genético en el cual se combina el hipogonadismo hipogonadotrópico y la anosmia. El hipogonadismo se caracteriza por…
Satisfacción de los estudiantes pregrado de Fisioterapia con el material docente facilitado por el profesorado
2016
Introducción: los materiales docentes tienen la función de facilitar el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Para ello deben despertar el interés de los estudiantes. Objetivos: primero, conocer la satisfacción de los estudiantes de tercer y cuarto curso de Fisioterapia con los diferentes tipos de materiales docentes proporcionados y determinar si existen diferencias entre ambos cursos; y segundo, estudiar la fiabilidad de la encuesta empleada mediante el análisis de su consistencia interna y los efectos techo y suelo. Material y método: estudio prospectivo en el que participaron 168 estudiantes del Grado en Fisioterapia de la Universidad de Valencia, para el que se elaboró un cuestionario comp…

Architectural Ultrasound Pennation Angle Measurement of Lumbar Multifidus Muscles: A Reliability Study
2022
The pennation angle has been shown to be a relevant parameter of muscle architecture. This parameter has not previously been measured in the lumbar multifidus musculature, and it is for this reason that it has been considered of great interest to establish an assessment protocol to generate new lines of research in the future. Objective: The objective of this study was to establish a protocol for measuring the pennation angle of the multifidus muscles, with a study of intra-rater and interrater reliability values. Design: This was a reliability study following the recommendations of the Guidelines for Reporting Reliability and Agreement Studies (GRRAS). Setting: The study was carried out at…
Effect of physiotherapy treatment in the autonomic modulation and pain perception of low back pain patients
2021
Introduction: Physiotherapy treatment is a common intervention for low back pain (LBP) patients. These interventions have been related to physiological effects in the central nervous system. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze the effect of physiotherapy treatment in patients with LBP in the autonomic nervous system activation and subjective pain perception of patients. Methods: A total of 30 male subjects diagnosed with non-specific subacute LBP received a 50 min session consisting of (a) a manual therapy based on joint mobilization and soft tissues techniques in the lumbo-pelvic area, (b) a stretching program, and (c) motor control exercises of the core muscles. The autonomic modif…
Correlation between Anthropometric and Ultrasound Measurement for Dry Needling of The Iliocostalis Lumborum Muscle with a Safety Protocol: A Cross-Se…
2022
Introduction: the management of musculoskeletal pain through the application of dry needling (DN) is effective. The application of this technique can carry very infrequent major risks on muscles, such as on the iliocostalis lumborum due to its proximity to the kidney and the peritoneum. It is important to establish a DN protocol based on the different anthropometric variables of the subjects. Main objective: the main objective of this study was to investigate the correlation between different anthropometric variables and the skin-kidney and skin-peritoneum distances to establish the size of the needle that could perform DN in the iliocostalis lumborum muscle without risk. Design: a cross-se…
Physiotherapy students´ experiences about ethical situations encountered in their clinical practices : A qualitative study
2021
Background: It is important to explore the ethical situations that physiotherapy students encountered in their clinical practices. (2) Methods: Qualitative, explorative, descriptive study. The participants included third-year physiotherapy students. They had to write five narratives about ethical situations encountered in their clinical practices. Krippendorff's method for qualitative content analysis was used to cluster units within the data to identify emergent themes. The study protocol was approved by the authors' University Ethic Committee of Human Research (H1515588244257). (3) Result: 280 narratives were reported by 64 students (23.34 ± 4.20 years, 59% women). Eight categories were i…
Functional and Clinical Characteristics for Predicting Sarcopenia in Institutionalised Older Adults: Identifying Tools for Clinical Screening
2020
Background: Recently, the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) has updated the sarcopenia definition based on objective evaluation of muscle strength, mass and physical performance. The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between sarcopenia and clinical aspects such as functionality, comorbidity, polypharmacy, hospitalisations and falls in order to support sarcopenia screening in institutionalised older adults, as well as to estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia in this population using the EWGSOP2 new algorithm. Methods: A multicentre cross-sectional study was conducted on institutionalised older adults (n = 132, 77.7% female, mean age 82 years). App…
A systematic review of the effectiveness of dry needling in subacromial syndrome
2022
Our aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of dry needling (DN) combined with conventional physiotherapy in the recovery of patients with subacromial syndrome (SAS). A search was made of the main open access health science databases. The publication date was not limited for systematic reviews but was for randomized clinical trials (RCTs), which were limited to the last five years (from 2016) in English or in Spanish. Ninety-four studies were selected. In order to assess the quality of the studies, the JADAD scale or Oxford quality scoring system was used. A total of 402 patients were analyzed in all the studies in which the application of conventional physiotherapy was compared to the DN, ei…
