[Purpose] Herein, we aimed to investigate the effects of bathing in a sodium chloride spring and an artificially carbonated spring on core body temperature and electroencephalograms, to assess whether the springs facilitate sleep. [Participants and Methods] This randomized, controlled, crossover study evaluated the effects of a sodium chloride spring, an artificially carbonated spring, a plain hot bath, and no bath on sleep. The subjective evaluations and recording of temperature were performed before/after bathing at 40 °C for 15 min at 22:00 h, before nocturnal sleep (0:00–7:00 h), and after the participants (n=8) woke up in the morning. [Results] Bathing significantly increased the core body temperature, with significant subsequent declines observed until bedtime. Participants in the sodium chloride spring group had the highest average core body temperature, while participants in the no-bath group had the lowest average core body temperature before bedtime (23:00–0:00 h). During bedtime (1:00–2:00 h), the participants in the no bath group had the highest average core body temperature, while participants in the artificially carbonated spring group had the lowest average core body temperature. The amount of delta power/min in the first sleep cycle significantly increased in the bathing groups, with the highest value during bedtime being recorded in the artificially carbonated spring group, followed by the sodium chloride spring, plain hot bath, and no-bath groups. These sleep changes were associated with significant declines in the elevated core body temperature. Increased heat dissipation and decreased core body temperature were observed in the artificially carbonated spring and sodium chloride spring groups, which increased the delta power during the first sleep cycle compared with that observed in the plain hot bath group, followed by the no-bath group. [Conclusion] An artificially carbonated spring would be the most appropriate given each circumstance because it did not cause fatigue, as observed with the sodium chloride spring.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to clarify the intrinsic factors influencing the deep squatting posture and to investigate the utility of ankle joint dorsiflexion measurement using this posture. [Subjects] The study subjects were 71 healthy male individuals. [Methods] The subjects were asked to squatted with their heels down and then were divided into 2 groups: possible squatting and impossible squatting. The anthropometric characteristics of the subjects were assessed, and the flexibility and movement range of the lower extremities were tested. To identify the intrinsic factors influencing the deep squatting posture, a dediscriminant analysis was performed by a stepwise procedure. The sensitivity, specificity, and cutoff values for the factors were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. [Results] Of the 71 participants, 55 were assigned to the possible squatting group and the remaining to the impossible squatting group. Analysis revealed that body weight and ankle dorsiflexion flexibility were significantly associated with ability to assume the deep squatting posture. In particular, ankle dorsiflexion flexibility was strongly associated with the ability to assume this posture. [Conclusion] The impossible squatting group showed reduced ankle dorsiflexion. Thus, the deep squatting posture is useful for easy and objective method for measuring ankle joint dorsiflexion flexibility.

[Purpose] To explore the views of clients referred for physical therapy in a tertiary care setting regarding the integration of physical therapy service at primary health care centers. [Participants and Methods] A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to eligible Saudi clients. The questionnaire consisted of three sections including demographic information section; closed-ended section with 6 Likert scale items on the perceptions of potential advantages of physical therapy service at the primary health care level; and open-ended section on potential disadvantages and barriers of implementing physical therapy service. The surveys were described and analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. [Results] A total of 412 participants were included in the analysis (56.8% females). Participants’ mean age was 35.7 ± 21.9 years; 67.2% were Riyadh city residents; and 38.1% had musculoskeletal conditions. Seventy-five percent responded in support for the availability of physical therapy service at the primary health care level. Demographic characteristics had no effect on the level of support to the service availability. [Conclusion] The results of this survey demonstrated high positive support for the integration of physical therapy service at primary health care centers in Saudi Arabia. However, challenges and barriers identified by the study results require attention when physical therapy services are to be established.

[Purpose] This study examined the effects of gum chewing while walking on physical and physiological functions. [Subjects and Methods] This study enrolled 46 male and female participants aged 21–69 years. In the experimental trial, participants walked at natural paces for 15 minutes while chewing two gum pellets after a 1-hour rest period. In the control trial, participants walked at natural paces for 15 minutes after ingesting powder containing the same ingredient, except the gum base, as the chewing gum. Heart rates, walking distances, walking speeds, steps, and energy expenditure were measured. [Results] Heart rates during walking and heart rate changes (i.e., from at rest to during walking) significantly increased during the gum trial compared with the control trial. Walking distance, walking speed, walking heart rate, and heart rate changes in male participants and walking heart rate and heart rate changes in female participants were significantly higher during the gum trial than the control trial. In middle-aged and elderly male participants aged ≥40 years, walking distance, walking speed, steps, and energy expenditure significantly increased during the gum trial than the control trial. [Conclusion] Gum chewing while walking measurably affects physical and physiological functions.

[Purpose] The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of physical therapy interventions in the treatment of sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SIJD). [Subjects and Methods] MEDLINE, PUBMED, CINAHL, AMED, PEDro, and CIRRIE databases were searched and only relevant data from studies that matched the inclusion criteria were included. CASP tools for critical appraisal were used to assess the quality of studies included. [Results] Nine articles met the inclusion criteria, of which, three examined the effect of exercise on SIJD, three used kinesio tape and four studies examined the effect of manipulation. Various outcomes were used including the visual analogue pain scale (VAS), Oswestry disability questionnaire (ODQ), numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) and pelvic position measurement (PALM, pelvimeter and photogrammetry). The quality of included studies ranged from low to average as the CASP tools revealed several limitations that affect the validity of the studies. The results showed that physiotherapy interventions are effective in reducing pain and disability associated with SIJD, with manipulation being the most effective approach and most commonly used within physical therapy clinics. [Conclusion] Manipulation, exercise and kinesio tape are effective in the treatment of pain, disability and pelvic asymmetry in SIJD.

[Purpose] Few studies on the transverse arch (TA) in the forefoot have been conducted. The forefoot is where pains occur most frequently and is related to walking and balance; hence, paying attention to TA is vital. However, the relationship between TA and foot muscles has not been investigated. Therefore, this study aims to investigate muscles related to TA. [Subjects and Methods] Nineteen healthy young males were included. Measurements of their feet, excluding one foot with recent foot pain (n=37), were obtained. The height of TA (TAH) was measured in two ways: during 10% and 90% loading of body weight. The cross-sectional area and thickness of five muscles were measured: flexor digitorum longus, peroneus longus and brevis, flexor hallucis brevis, flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) and abductor hallucis (ABH). All measurements were performed with an ultrasound device. [Results] FDB and ABH were correlated with TAH during 10% and 90% loading after removing the effect of body mass index and age. The greater FDB and ABH, the higher TAH. [Conclusion] As FDB becomes larger, the second, third and fourth metatarsal heads are raised more. Furthermore, the height of the first metatarsal head is lowered by a larger ABH. These mechanisms may increase TAH.

[Purpose] The sit-to-stand (STS) maneuver is a component of everyday mobility. The purpose of this review was to summarize the number of daily STSs performed by adults with or without pathology. [Methods] Four bibliographic databases were searched followed by a consultation with experts and a search by hand to locate articles reporting daily STSs. Information on measurement procedures, tested populations, and daily STSs was extracted. Methodological quality was rated. [Results] Ten articles were identified. The mean number of daily STSs ranged from 33 to 71. The mean number was at least 45 for all groups except patients with congestive heart failure, residents of a hospital ward and one group of older adults. [Conclusion] Individuals performing fewer than 45 daily STSs may be experiencing a work deficit and benefit from additional intentional STS repetitions.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to develop a proposal for an effective interventional option for therapeutic stimulation sites by comparing the pain-relieving effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) applied to the same dermatome level of the contralateral sites of the dorsal wrist joint with the pain or the neck, or both sites simultaneously. [Subjects and Methods] A control was first established by triggering pain in the left dorsal wrist joints of adult females by using heat stimulation. Three interventions were then performed, comprising the TENS to the contralateral wrist joint (CW) and to the neck (N) at the same dermatome level as the site of pain, and the TENS to both CW and N simultaneously (CWN). Levels of pain and cerebral blood flow were also measured. [Results] The pain levels of three interventions were found to be significantly decreased compared with the control; however, no significant differences in the levels of pain were seen between any combinations of three interventions. Furthermore, no significant differences were seen between any interventions in terms of cerebral blood flow. [Conclusion] The results suggest that in order for TENS to be effective, it is necessary to make effective use of the dermatome.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine changes in the carpal tunnels and median nerves appearing due to frequent movements of fingers by ultrasonography in young adults who frequently use smartphones. [Subjects] The subjects of this study were 20 young male and female adults who had no limitation in the range of movement of neck, shoulder, and arm joints, musculoskeletal disorder of the arm, or neurological symptoms such as paraesthesia and agreed to participate in the study. [Methods] The subjects who agreed to participate in this study were asked to use a smartphone for 30 minutes while maintaining comfortable sitting postures on a chair. They were asked to maintain the position of their shoulders comfortably while maintaining an angle of around 90° at the elbow. Some values measured before and after the experiment using a smartphone for 30 minutes were compared. The carpal tunnel was measured using ultrasonography. [Results] There were significant differences in median nerve circumference length, area of the median nerve area, distance between the highest point of the median nerve to the lunate, and distance between the bottom point of the median nerve to the lunate between before and after the experiment(p

本研究の目的は,健常男性12名を対象に,各種ブリッジ動作中の股関節周囲筋の筋活動量を明確にし,さらに各筋のMMT3の筋活動と比較することである。測定筋は,大殿筋,中殿筋,大腿筋膜張筋,大内転筋とし,各筋の整流平滑化筋電図を求めた。その結果,両脚ブリッジの筋活動量は20%以下の低い筋活動であった。一方,片脚ブリッジの筋活動量は,股伸展・外転筋で高い値を示し,両脚ブリッジと比較し,すべての筋において有意に増加した。MMT3の筋活動とブリッジ動作を比較すると,大内転筋を除いて片脚ブリッジの方が大きい筋活動を示した。本研究結果より,片脚ブリッジは大殿筋だけでなく中殿筋や大腿筋膜張筋の筋力トレーニングとして有効であることが示唆された。また,片脚ブリッジをするためには,MMT3以上の筋活動が必要であり,訓練処方の1つの基準となると考えられる。

[Purpose] This study investigated the effects of Nordic walking on physical functions and depression in frail people aged 70 years and above. [Subjects] Twenty frail elderly individuals ≥70 years old were assigned to either a Nordic walking group (n=8) or general exercise group (n=10). [Methods] The duration of intervention was equal in both groups (3 sessions/week for 12 weeks, 60 min/session). Physical function (balance, upper extremity strength, lower extremity strength, weakness) and depression were examined before and after the interventions. [Results] With the exception of upper extremity muscle strength, lower extremity strength, weakness, balance, and depression after Nordic walking demonstrated statistically significant improvement. However, in the general exercise group, only balance demonstrated a statistically significant improvement after the intervention. There were significant differences in the changes in lower extremity muscle strength, weakness and depression between the groups. [Conclusion] In conclusion, Nordic walking was more effective than general exercise. Therefore, we suggest that Nordic walking may be an attractive option for significant functional improvement in frail people over 70 years old.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine whether strict adjustment of the pillow height using the Set-up for Spinal Sleep method improves clinical outcomes like neck pain and somatic symptoms. [Participants and Methods] A total of 84 participants with chief complaints of stiff shoulders and neck pain were evaluated using the numerical rating scale and the Somatic Symptom Scale-8. Questionnaires were used to collect data at the baseline, after two weeks, and after three months of adjusting the pillow height. [Results] Forty-two participants (50%) achieved the minimal clinically important difference for neck pain with a decrease of three points or higher in the numerical rating scale. The baseline neck pain scores were significantly higher in the group that achieved the minimal clinically important difference. The three-month change in neck pain and the Somatic Symptom Scale-8 was significantly greater in participants who were satisfied with treatment. There was a significant positive association between improvement in the numerical rating scale score and improvement in the Somatic Symptom Scale-8 at three months. [Conclusion] Strict adjustment of the pillow height using the Set-up for the Spinal Sleep method significantly improved both physical neck pain and somatic symptoms related to psychological and social problems.

[Purpose] Patients with chronic unilateral vestibular hypofunction show decreased postural stability and low levels of physical activity and also experience much anxiety. Physical activity is known to improve these symptoms; however, no study has reported any positive effects of physical activity, such as symptom reduction or improvement in function in these patients. In this study, we investigated the role of a walking program in improvement of dizziness, anxiety, and postural stability in this patient population. [Participants and Methods] This study included 21 patients with unilateral vestibular hypofunction and chronic dizziness. Patients were instructed to walk 30 min daily for 3 months. Physical activity levels and questionnaires for clinical symptoms, anxiety, and postural stability were evaluated before and after intervention. [Results] We observed significant differences in the amount of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, clinical symptoms, and self-perceived handicap before and after the intervention. Additionally, anxiety levels were significantly reduced and postural stability was significantly improved in these patients. [Conclusion] A walking program improved physical activity levels, clinical symptoms, and postural stability and reduced self-perceived handicap and anxiety in patients with chronic unilateral vestibular hypofunction. These results highlight the effectiveness of a walking program for these patients and emphasize its role as a complementary vestibular rehabilitation strategy.

[Purpose] There are no reliable evidences that the weakening of intrinsic foot muscles causes the decrease of the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) height. The purpose of this study was to confirm whether the fatigue of intrinsic foot muscles decrease the MLA height during standing and gait using 3D motion analysis system. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty healthy male subjects participated in this study. Foot kinematics was measured using an Oxford Foot Model before and after fatigue-inducing exercises of the abductor hallucis and flexor hallucis brevis muscles. [Results] Following fatigue-inducing exercise, in both standing and gait, the MLA height did not decrease but slightly increased. In addition, the reduction of a rear foot eversion angle was noted. [Conclusion] Fatigue of the abductor hallucis and flexor hallucis brevis muscles did not cause a change associated with collapsing of the MLA during both standing and gait. This suggested that the MLA support force from these muscles would be compensated by other MLA support structures, such as extrinsic foot muscles.

[Purpose] The current study aimed to identify the effects of dynamic neural mobilization on cerebral cortical activity in patients with stroke, and to present efficient intervention methods for stroke management. [Subjects and Methods] A total of 20 hemiplegic patients diagnosed with stroke over the past 6 months were sampled, and randomly divided into groups I (n=10) and II (n=10). Groups I and II underwent neural mobilization and dynamic neural mobilization, respectively, on the paralyzed arm. Both interventions were administered for 30 min, once a day, for 4 days a week, over a course of 4 weeks. β-waves and μ-rhythms in the C3 and C4 areas of the cerebral cortex were measured using electroencephalography, both before and after the intervention. [Results] After the intervention, both groups showed significant changes in the β-waves and μ-rhythms in the C3 area alone. Further, significant inter-group differences in the β-waves and μ-rhythms were only present in the C3 area. [Conclusion] Dynamic neural mobilization is an efficient intervention because it increases β-waves and μ-rhythms in the cerebral cortex. Therefore, the effects of continuous intervention programs involving dynamic neural mobilization in patients with stroke should be investigated in the future.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study is to compare effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), ultrasound (US) and sham ESWT in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS). [Subjects and Methods] Sixty MPS patients aged 18–60 years were included in the study. The patients were randomized equally into 3 groups. Group 1 received ESWT for 4 session with 3 day-intervals. Group 2 received 4 sessions of sham ESWT. US was applied to Group 3 for 10 sessions. All patients were recommended an exercise program. The patients were evaluated before-post and 6 weeks after treatment. Measurements were made using pressure pain threshold (PPT), pain score (PS) and visual analogue scale (VAS). Patients were evaluated by using SF-36 and HADS (hospital anxiety and depression scale). [Results] A significant posttreatment difference was found in VAS, PPT and SF-36 subparameters in group 1. In group 2, a significant difference was not found in any parameter. In group 3, a significant difference was detected in parameters of VAS and PPT. A significant difference was found between groups 1 and 2 as for subtitles of PPT, VAS, SF-36. [Conclusion] These results suggest that ESWT is as effective as US. ESWT and US are significantly more effective than sham ESWT.
