“…A cinesioterapia também pode diminuir a necessidade de artroplastia e medicação intra-articular do joelho. [22][23][24][25] Além de diminuir a dor, aumentar a força muscular de membros inferiores também é importante, pois ajuda a estabilizar a articulação e influencia diretamente na qualidade da marcha. 26 Criar propostas de tratamento que trabalhem essas duas questões são fatores imprescindíveis no controle e tratamento da AO de joelho.…”

A geoterapia é o uso terapêutico de argilas, que são definidas como materiais naturais terrosos que possuem em sua composição diferentes tipos de minerais. Objetivo: Este trabalho teve como objetivo comparar a dor, mobilidade, descarga de peso e prejuízos funcionais em indivíduos com osteoartrite de joelho, submetidos a dois tipos de tratamentos fisioterapêutico: grupo de geoterapia associada a cinesioterapia (GGC) e grupo de geoterapia associada a fitoterapia e cinesioterapia (GGFC). Método: O estudo foi um ensaio clínico randomizado duplo-cego no qual participaram 25 indivíduos de ambos os sexos com idade acima de 43 anos. Ambos submetidos a 10 sessões com duração de 45 minutos. Os indivíduos realizaram as avaliações para verificação da dor pela Escala visual analógica (EVA), para avaliar a mobilidade funcional o teste Timed Up and Go (TUG), para avaliar a incapacidade e sintomas o Questionário Algo funcional de Lequesne, e para medir a descarga de peso entre os membros o Nintendo Wii Fit®. Resultados: Mostraram que apenas o GGFC obteve melhora da mobilidade funcional. Ambos os grupos melhoraram a intensidade da dor e sintomas após a intervenção sendo que a melhora do GGFC foi superior ao GGC em relação aos sintomas da OA. Ambos os grupos não mostraram melhoras quanto à descarga de peso. Conclusão: A geoterapia e fitoterapia associada à cinesioterapia podem ser benéficas quanto à redução da dor e prejuízos funcionais associados à OA de joelho.

High-quality evidence indicates that land-based therapeutic exercise provides short-term benefit that is sustained for at least two to six months after cessation of formal treatment in terms of reduced knee pain, and moderate-quality evidence shows improvement in physical function among people with knee OA. The magnitude of the treatment effect would be considered moderate (immediate) to small (two to six months) but comparable with estimates reported for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Confidence intervals around demonstrated pooled results for pain reduction and improvement in physical function do not exclude a minimal clinically important treatment effect. Since the participants in most trials were aware of their treatment, this may have contributed to their improvement. Despite the lack of blinding we did not downgrade the quality of evidence for risk of performance or detection bias. This reflects our belief that further research in this area is unlikely to change the findings of our review.

Objective One-repetition maximum (1-RM) bench press strength is considered the gold standard to quantify upper-body muscular strength. Isometric handgrip strength is frequently used as a surrogate for 1-RM bench press strength among breast cancer (BrCa) survivors. The relationship between 1-RM bench press strength and isometric handgrip strength, however, has not been characterized among BrCa survivors. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Laboratory. Participants Community-dwelling BrCa survivors. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measure 1-RM bench press strength was measured with a barbell and exercise bench. Isometric handgrip strength was measured using an isometric dynamometer with three maximal contractions of left and right hands. All measures were conducted by staff with training in clinical exercise testing. Results Among 295 BrCa survivors, 1-RM bench press strength was 18.2±6.1 kg (range: 2.2-43.0) and isometric handgrip strength was 23.5±5.8 kg (range: 9.0-43.0). The strongest correlate of 1-RM bench press strength was the average isometric handgrip strength of both hands (r=0.399; P<0.0001). Mean-difference analysis suggested that the average isometric handgrip strength of both hands overestimated 1-RM bench press strength by 4.7 kg (95% limits of agreement: −8.2 to 17.6). In a multivariable linear regression model, the average isometric handgrip strength of both hands (β=0.31; P<0.0001) and age (β=−0.20; P<0.0001) were positively correlated with 1-RM bench press strength (R2=0.23). Conclusions Isometric handgrip strength is a poor surrogate for 1-RM bench press strength among BrCa survivors. 1-RM bench press and isometric handgrip strength quantify distinct components of muscular strength.
