Background of the Study: Low back pain (LBP) is a very common and more than 10 million cases reported per year (India).The overall prevalence of low back pain was < 10% in the community. The prevalence of low back pain was more in women compared to men and it occurs more in the age group 20-35 compared to other age groups. Methodology: The study setting is Physiotherapy OPD ACS medical college and hospital campus with experimental study design. 30 subjects of both male and female between the age of 20-35 years who are brisk and who doesn’t have any previous illness with slump test negative were included. Group 1 (n=15) were given Good mornings with barbell exercise for 30 minutes and Group 2 (n=15) were given with conventional strengthening exercise for 30 minutes. The subjects were assessed pre and post to the treatment by Oswestry low back disability questionnaires and Visual Analogue Scale. Results: On comparing the Mean values of Group A & Group B on VAS Score, it shows significant decrease in the post test Mean values but (Group B - Strengthening) shows (2.53) which has the Lower Mean value is effective than (Group A - Barbell) (3.00) at P ≤ 0.05. Hence Null Hypothesis is rejected. On comparing the Mean values of Group A & Group B on Oswestry Disability Index(OSDI), it shows significant decrease in the post test Mean values but (Group B - Strengthening) shows (16.86) which has the Lower Mean value is effective than (Group A - Barbell) (19.60) at P ≤ 0.05. Conclusion: Therefore, this study proved conventional strengthening exercise plays a vital role in treating MLBP.

Background of the study: Osteoarthritis knee is the most common joint disease that affects the aged people and result in long term disability. Osteoarthritis knee cause degenerative joint disease, wear and tear changes occurring in old age due to weight bearing and loss of articular cartilage. It occurs in 12.1% population approximately. Increased BMI is a well-recognized risk factor for radiographic knee osteoarthritis however, the contributions from joint mobility also have an impact on subjects with knee osteoarthritis. The objective of the study is to find out the correlation of knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) with anthropometric measures and flexibility in subjects with Knee OA. Methodology: This is an observational study of analytical type, total of 100 subjects. 47 male and 53 female subjects aged above 55years with pre-diagnosed knee osteoarthitis were included for the study. Subjects with knee pain for last 3 months will be included in this study by convenient sampling method. Visual Analogue scale, knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) questionnaire were used as an outcome measure, weighing scale, goniometer were the tools used for this study. The study was carried out at old aged home for 3 months. Result: A Positive Association and correlation between Knee ROM and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) with Pearson value is 0.573 indicates an increase in KOOS score decreases knee range of motion in subjects with knee osteoarthritis. Conclusion: The study concluded that there is significant correlation with Knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) and anthropometric measures in subjects with knee osteoarthritis.

Visual Analogue scale, knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) questionnaire were used as an outcome measure, weighing scale, goniometer were the tools used for this study. The study was carried out at old aged home for 3 months. Result: A Positive Association and correlation between Knee ROM and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) with Pearson value is 0.573 indicates an increase in KOOS score decreases knee range of motion in subjects with knee osteoarthritis. Conclusion: The study concluded that there is significant correlation with Knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) and anthropometric measures in subjects with knee osteoarthritis.","PeriodicalId":275373,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medical and Exercise Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130928132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Background of the study: Migraine is serious health problem in 15% of general population. The patients with migraine exhibited active Trigger Points in their neck extensor muscles. Dry needling is a treatment using a thin filament sterile needle to puncture skin and create tiny lesions in a muscle, tendon, to help restore normal physiology function, and reduce pain. Needling has applications for myofascial pain, chronic pain, headache, migraine. Cervical Manipulation Technique has been used to reduce pain and improve range of motion and used in the treatment of patients with head and neck disorders, including neck pain and stiffness, muscle-tension headache, and migraine. The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of dry needling technique versus cervical manipulation technique on patients with migraine. Methodology: 30 patients were randomly divided into two groups; fifteen patients in the experimental group-A received cervical manipulation technique (3 times/week) and fifteen patients in the experimental group-B received Dry needling technique. The VAS and NDI were used as outcome measures. Result: Comparing between Group A and Group B showed significant difference in effectiveness on pain and Neck disability with P value >0.0001 among patients with migraine. Group B with Dry needling technique found more effective than Group A with cervical manipulation technique with mean difference of (2.867) and (11.40) over (2.267) and (10.47) respectively. Conclusion: Dry needling technique group is more effective over cervical manipulation technique on enhancing on pain and neck disability. Therefore, this study concludes that Dry needling technique is an effective intervention for migraine patients.

Background of the study: Bharatanatyam is an Indian Classical Dance which involves rhythmic dance movements. There are various postures in the dance form in which dancers need optimum muscle strength and adequate range of motion at required joints. Dancers need good body balance to maintain the postures. The main purpose of the study is to compare the effectiveness between Otago exercise and Modified Otago exercise on dynamic balance among Bharatanatyam Dancers. Methodology: This is an experimental study of Pre and Post comparative type. 20 Female Bharatanatyam Dancers were randomly selected for the study. The study setting was in Nritham; the School of Dance. Study duration is about 6 sessions in a week for 8 weeks. The inclusion criteria include only Female Bharatanatyam Dancers within the age group of 18–25 years. The recruited subjects were allocated into two groups, Group A received Otago exercise program and Group B received Modified Otago exercise program. The exercise program was given for 30 minutes per day for 8 weeks, before and at the end of the treatment session Star Excursion Balance test was assessed as outcome measure. Result: On comparing the mean values of Group A & Group B on Star Excursion Balance Test score for dynamic balance, it shows a significant increase in the post test mean values in both groups in all directions, but Group B was more effective than Group A at P ≤ 0.001. Conclusion: On comparing the effects between the groups showed Modified Otago Exercise Group B is more effective than Group A Otago Exercise.
