Perturbation exercises enhance lower limb and trunk muscles, and adding swing perturbation while loading during exercise might improve muscle activation or strength. This study aimed to check variations in trunk and lower limb muscle activity during conventional isometric squats, and whether it will change with or without swing using the Hammerobics-synchronized squat method. Twelve healthy men participated in this study. Activities for the abductor hallucis, tibialis anterior, tibialis posterior, peroneus longus, rectus femoris, biceps femoris long head, semitendinosus, gluteus maximus, multifidus, and internal oblique muscles were measured using surface electromyography during a Hammerobics-synchronized squat and conventional isometric squat. Muscle activities were statistically compared between squat methods. Hammerobics-synchronized squats significantly activated the abductor hallucis, tibialis anterior, tibialis posterior, peroneus longus, semitendinosus, and multifidus muscles, in both phases, compared with the conventional isometric squats. The Hammerobics-synchronized squat exercise can be considered for trunk and foot stability exercise.

“…No se encontró algún estudio que haya utilizado el índice de Hernández-Corvo, para comparar la eficacia de un tratamiento; solo se ha utilizado para tipificar la huella plantar. Alam et al (23) realizaron una rutina de ejercicios semejante a la aplicada en este estudio, en una población de la India, demostrando que la inclusión del fortalecimiento y el estiramiento de músculos del tobillo, además del programa de ejercicios con enrollamiento con toalla convencional (semejantes a los aplicados en el presente estudio), mejoró significativamente (p˂ 0.05) la caída navicular, la actividad muscular y el equilibrio dinámico en el pie plano de los pacientes, los cambios que mencionan en las presiones plantares podrían ser equiparables a los cambios que encontramos al realizar la tipificación de la huella plantar, en el presente estudio. En la comparación de medias de la tipificación de la huella plantar pre y post intervención se registró un cambio en cuanto a las frecuencias de pie tipo normal, esta modificación de la huella plantar pudo ser causa de un cambio de postura y reeducación de la marcha.…”

Disminución del puntaje de riesgo de caída a través de una intervención fisioterapéutica en adultos con diabetes mellitus tipo 2

Introducción: La diabetes mellitus (DM) se ha convertido en una epidemia; en México las cifras ascienden a 12 millones de adultos. La debilidad muscular y pérdida de equilibrio que presentan los pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DT2) afecta el ciclo de la marcha lo que aumenta el riesgo de caídas (RC). Una de las estrategias que ha logrado reducir el RC en las personas que viven con DT2 son las intervenciones fisioterapéuticas. Objetivo: Determinar el efecto de una intervención fisioterapéutica en la marcha, sobre el puntaje de RC (PRC) en adultos con DT2. Material y Métodos: Estudio prospectivo, longitudinal, cuasi experimental. Se realizó una intervención fisioterapéutica en la marcha a adultos con DT2, que incluyó ejercicios de fortalecimiento, estiramientos, de equilibrio y coordinación; se calcularon los rangos de movimiento articular (RDM) fuerza muscular (FM) (escala de Daniels-Worthingham), huella plantar mediante el índice de Hernández-Corvo (IHC) de los miembros inferiores y PRC (TINETTI). Resultados: Participaron 21 adultos, mayores de 40 años, con un tiempo de evolución de DT2 de 13±8 años; el 85.76% fueron mujeres, y 61.91% presentó obesidad. Se registró un aumento en los RDM y se observó una diferencia significativa en la comparación de rangos de las variables de FM en ambos miembros inferiores. La huella plantar registró un cambio a pie tipo normal de un 34% en el derecho y en el izquierdo de 14%. El PRC disminuyó un 25% (p˂0.005). Conclusión: El aumento de los RDM, FM, equilibrio, coordinación y la modificación de la huella plantar disminuyó el PRC en los participantes del presente estudio.

“…Flatfoot is usually accompanied by increased eversion and pronation of the hindfoot (Alam et al, 2019), and increased abduction and supination of the forefoot (Lee & Kim, 2014). These presentations put the hindfoot and forefoot rotationally in opposite directions, which according to Mosca (2010), gives the impression that the foot has been ''wrung out like a towel''.…”

Adequate body balance is important in preventing falls and injuries in children during physically active play and sports at school. The structure of the foot is essential to the ability to balance, but findings from studies comparing balance of children with and without flatfoot have been equivocal. We investigated the prevalence of flatfoot among school children in Ibadan, Nigeria, and compared selected balance indices in participants with and without flatfoot. Participants in this cross-sectional study were 300 junior secondary school students (aged 10-14 years). The navicular drop test, single limb stance test and tandem walk test were used to assess the presence of flatfoot, and static balance and dynamic balance, respectively. Data were summarised using percentages, mean and SD and, analysed with independent t-tests and chi-squared tests. The prevalence of flatfoot was 39.7%, and while higher in boys (44.7%) than girls (34.9%), this was not significantly different. Participants with flatfoot had significantly poorer mean static balance measures than those who did not (right: 25.70 [SD 6.55] vs 27.89 [SD 4.92]; left: 26.21 [SD 6.01] vs 28.52 [SD 4.27]), but there was no significant difference in dynamic balance between the groups. When treating children with flatfoot, physiotherapists may consider measuring static balance and, where appropriate, incorporate balance activities as part of the overall management plan.
