Background: Congenital muscular torticollis (CMT) is a postural condition evident shortly after birth. The 2013 CMT Clinical Practice Guideline (2013 CMT CPG) set standards for the identification, referral, and physical therapy management of infants with CMT, and its implementation resulted in improved clinical outcomes. It was updated in 2018 to reflect current evidence and 7 resources were developed to support implementation. Purpose: This 2024 CMT CPG is intended as a reference document to guide physical therapists, families, health care professionals, educators, and researchers to improve clinical outcomes and health services for children with CMT, as well as to inform the need for continued research. Results/Conclusions: The 2024 CMT CPG addresses: education for prevention, screening, examination and evaluation including recommended outcome measures, consultation with and referral to other health care providers, classification and prognosis, first-choice and evidence-informed supplemental interventions, discontinuation from direct intervention, reassessment and discharge, implementation and compliance recommendations, and research recommendations.

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic physical exercise (TPE) interventions on the physical functioning, psychosocial well-being, and quality of life (QoL) of children undergoing treatment for cancer.
Method: Systematic review: databases were searched in April 2023. Selection criteria: children (<18 years old) undergoing treatment for cancer or a malignant neoplasm, randomized controlled trial design, utilization of TPE, and including physical and psychosocial outcomes. Internal validity was measured with Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale.
Results: Seven randomized controlled trials were included. Most studies showed that strength, fatigue, and QoL improved after the intervention. Cardiorespiratory capacity through 6-minute walk test and physical activity levels were better in the experimental groups. No changes were noted in other variables.
Conclusions: This review supports the importance of a TPE program during cancer treatment, with the aim of maintaining physical capacities and counteracting physical inactivity.
目的:评估治疗性体育锻炼(TPE)干预对接受癌症治疗的儿童的身体机能、社会心理健康和生活质量(QoL)的影响:系统综述:2023 年 4 月检索数据库。选择标准:儿童:纳入了七项随机对照试验。大多数研究表明,干预后体力、疲劳和 QoL 均有所改善。实验组通过 6 分钟步行测试获得的心肺能力和体力活动水平有所提高。结论:本综述支持在癌症治疗期间开展 TPE 计划的重要性,该计划旨在保持体能和消除缺乏运动的情况。

PURPOSEContainers (eg, strollers, bouncers) are an important part of infants' environment but may negatively impact infant development and health. This study evaluated movement and play opportunities, constraints, and manufacturers' developmental claims for infant containers.METHODSContainers were identified through Amazon.com. A content analysis of identified products was conducted to identify movement and visual-manual play opportunities, constraints, and developmental claims.RESULTSContent was analyzed for 460 containers. Containers varied in their movement and play opportunities; however, most did not incorporate toys and restricted trunk movement, self-directed locomotion, and independent head and trunk control. Containers, especially those with built-in toys, often had claims related to gross motor, sensory, and fine motor development.CONCLUSIONThese findings demonstrate the variability of movement and play opportunities observed across and within categories of infant containers. General recommendations about container use may be less effective than more specific education to parents about selecting and implementing containers.
