Background: Patients who have anterior cruciate ligament restoration surgery endure a severe loss of strength intheir lower limbs as a result of muscle atrophy and arthrogenic inhibition. A relatively novel method for eitherpreventing muscle atrophy or maybe inducing muscular growth is blood flow restriction (BFR) training.Purpose: The Purpose of the study is to determine effectiveness of blood flow restriction training in post-surgeryrehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament compared with traditional ACL rehabilitation protocol.Materials and Methods: Total of 50 samples was selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The subjectswere separated as Group A and Group B where group A (n=25) is provided with blood flow restriction trainingand group B (n=25) is provided with strengthening exercise. Results were statistically analysed and tabulated.Result: The study found that there is significant improvement on anterior cruciate ligament surgery in post rehabusing NPRS and Range of motion. The results concluded that the improvement in blood flow restriction trainingwas extremely statistically significant.Conclusion: Blood flow restriction training was found to be more effective than strengthening exercise for thetreatment of post rehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament surgery.
背景：接受前交叉韧带修复手术的患者会因肌肉萎缩和关节抑制而导致下肢力量严重下降。血流限制（BFR）训练是防止肌肉萎缩或诱导肌肉生长的一种相对新颖的方法。研究目的：与传统的前交叉韧带康复方案相比，本研究旨在确定血流限制训练在前交叉韧带术后康复中的有效性：根据纳入和排除标准共选取 50 个样本。受试者分为 A 组和 B 组，其中 A 组（25 人）进行血流限制训练，B 组（25 人）进行强化训练。研究结果经统计分析后列表：研究发现，前交叉韧带手术后的康复训练中，NPRS 和活动范围有明显改善。结果表明，血流限制训练的改善在统计学上非常显著：结论：在治疗前十字韧带术后康复方面，血流限制训练比强化训练更有效。

Background: Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a chronic and progressive disease that impairs patients’ quality of life anddaily activities. PF is caused by repeated tissue injury at the origin of the calcaneus’ medial tuberosity. Thesymptoms include Pain expanding from the heel’s medial aspect into the arch of the foot. Pain is frequently worsein the morning, after a period of rest, or after engaging in physical exercise. These signs and symptoms can becomeparalyzing as the illness advances, reducing the individual’s ability to bear weight. According to recent research,the condition should be called fascists because the pathology is more similar to that of tendinosis. The thickness ofthe plantar fascia increases, as does degenerationPurpose: The purpose of the study to determine the effectiveness of dry needling for the subjects with plantarfasciitisMaterials and Methods: 68 subjects in total were chosen based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Experimentalgroup (n=34) patients received dry needling of intended sites using a 30 mm needle that was gradually withdrawnafter 15 minutes. The conventional group (n=34) received the Ultrasound therapy was applied at 3.0-MHzfrequency .Patients taken from the five plus hospital.

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is characterized as “pain along the posterior portion of the body from the lowerborder of the twelfth rib to the lower gluteal folds. A technique called strain counterstrain method is used to treatmusculoskeletal pain. Core strengthening exercises can also lead to significant improvements in pain reductionand functional status. The goal of this study is to find the effectiveness of strain counterstrain technique and corestrengthening exercises in treating low back pain.Methods: Total of 100 participants were chosen from Capital hospital, Vijayawada by convenient sampling,During study period from September 2022 to July 2023. A written consent form was obtained from them. Afterobtaining pre-test of VAS and Oswestry disability questionnaire the patients were categorised randomly into twogroups. GROUP A received Strain counterstrain technique alone and GROUP B received Strain counterstraintechnique with core strengthening exercises.Result: A statistically significant difference was found between GROUP A and GROUP B as well as within thegroup, according to the statistical analysis performed on the quantitative data.Conclusion: The findings of the present study demonstrate improvements in both Strain counterstrain techniqueand core strengthening exercises among middle aged people with chronic low back pain. However, (GROUP B)shows an extremely significant improvement compared to (GROUP A).
背景：腰背痛（LBP）的特征是 "从第十二根肋骨下缘到臀下皱襞的身体后部疼痛"。一种名为 "应变反应变法 "的技术可用于治疗肌肉骨骼疼痛。核心强化训练也能显著改善疼痛减轻和功能状态。本研究的目的是了解反应变技术和核心强化训练在治疗腰背痛方面的效果：方法：在 2022 年 9 月至 2023 年 7 月的研究期间，通过方便抽样法从维贾亚瓦达首都医院选取了 100 名参与者。获得了他们的书面同意书。在获得 VAS 和 Oswestry 残疾问卷的前测结果后，患者被随机分为两组。A 组仅接受应变对抗技术，B 组接受应变对抗技术和核心强化训练：结果：根据对定量数据进行的统计分析，发现 A 组和 B 组之间以及组内的差异具有统计学意义：本研究结果表明，中老年慢性腰背痛患者在应变对抗技术和核心强化训练方面均有改善。然而，与（A 组）相比，（B 组）的改善极为显著。
