Effectiveness of Mulligan Mobilization Technique and Core Stabilization Exercises in Female Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized Controlled Single-Blind Study. J Manipulative Physiol Ther 2024:S0161-4754(24)00051-4. [PMID: 39340509 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmpt.2024.08.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 08/25/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of the Mulligan mobilization (MM) technique and Core stabilization (CS) exercises added to the conventional physiotherapy (CP) program in female patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). METHODS The study included 42 female patients diagnosed with bilateral KOA. Participants were randomly divided into 3 groups as CP group (mean age: 57.79 ± 7.43 years), MM group (mean age: 56.14 ± 6.95 years), and CS group (mean age: 54.36 ± 6.56 years). They were divided into 3 groups and treated 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks. Pain intensity, range of motion (ROM), and muscle strength were evaluated with visual analog scale, universal goniometer, and handheld dynamometer, respectively. Balance, aerobic capacity, and functional level were assessed with 30-second sit-to-stand test, 6-minute walk test, and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index. The quality of life of the participants was evaluated with the Nottingham Health Profile. RESULTS After treatment, significant improvement was achieved in the all parameters evaluated in the groups (P < .05). CS was found to be more effective in reducing resting pain intensity than the other two treatment approaches (P = .001). It was observed that MM technique increased knee flexion ROM more (P = .001). There was no superiority of MM group and CS group over each other in balance, functional level, aerobic capacity, and quality of life assessments (P > .05). CONCLUSION Our study showed that CP, MM technique, and CS exercises were effective treatment approaches in the management of KOA in female patients. Results revealed that the MM technique was more effective in increasing knee flexion ROM, and the CS exercise was more effective in reducing resting pain intensity in female patients with KOA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced knee osteoarthritis (KOA) impacts both knees, resulting in pain, deformity, and substantial restrictions in joint mobility. OBJECTIVE This study aims to examine the effectiveness of combining arthroscopic debridement with functional exercise in treating advanced KOA. METHODS A total of 296 patients diagnosed with advanced KOA were divided into two groups: the observation group (n= 152) received arthroscopic debridement combined with functional exercise, while the control group (n= 144) underwent arthroscopic debridement only. The study compared and observed the outcomes between the two groups. RESULTS There were no significant differences in knee joint function, inflammation level, and oxidative stress between the two groups before treatment (P> 0.05). Following treatment for six months, the observation group exhibited significantly lower visual analog scale (VAS) score, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1), matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3), and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels compared to the control group (P< 0.05). Meanwhile, the observation group showed significantly higher levels of Lysholm score, hospital for special surgery (HSS) score, range of motion (ROM) of knee, peak torque (PT) and total work (TW) for knee extension and flexion, superoxide dismutase (SOD), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), and glutathione (GSH) compared to the control group (P< 0.05). Besides, the effective treatment rate in the observation group was notably higher than that in the control group (80.92% vs. 69.44%, P< 0.05). CONCLUSION The combination of arthroscopic debridement with functional exercise is an effective treatment for advanced KOA. This approach not only enhances the function and strength of knee joint and reduces inflammatory response but also boosts the body's antioxidant capacity. The treatment exhibits encouraging outcomes and warrants broad implementation.

Abstract
Despite its positive impact on physical and mental well-being, adults may refrain from performing regular physical activity, due to inadequate time, accessibility, or funds. Yet remote platforms could overcome such obstacles and increase participation. This study evaluated the effectiveness of remote-synchronous group-Pilates classes compared to in-studio classes in healthy sedentary women. In a randomized controlled design, 40 women, aged 20-45, were assigned to a Zoom or studio group-Pilates training. The intervention included twice-weekly 45 min sessions over an eight-week period. Attendance (adherence) was recorded, and the participants completed physical motor tests (plank, curl-up, stork, push-up, and V-sit and reach), Profile of Mood State Surveys, and Nordic Musculoskeletal Pain Questionnaires. Evaluations were performed at baseline, mid-intervention (4 weeks), and post intervention (8 weeks). Adherence to training was high in the Zoom and studio groups (80% and 74%, respectively). Improvements in physical motor tests were seen in both groups following the Pilates interventions, thereby indicating the effectiveness of group-Pilates Zoom training. In conclusion, remote online physical activity such as Pilates offers a good alternative to in-studio trainings, as a means for improving physical fitness and promoting a healthy lifestyle in adults, by offering a more accessible and less timely alternative to in-studio physical activity programs.

The effectiveness of exercise with behavior change techniques in people with knee osteoarthritis: A systematic review with meta-analysis. PM R 2023; 15:1012-1025. [PMID: 36152318 DOI: 10.1002/pmrj.12898] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this systematic review with meta-analysis was to examine the effectiveness of exercise with behavior change techniques (BCTs) on core outcome sets in people with knee osteoarthritis. LITERATURE SURVEY We searched randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in eight databases (MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, CINAHL, PsycINFO, PEDro, ICTRP, and ClinicalTrials.gov) up to November 4, 2021. METHODOLOGY Eligible participants were people with knee osteoarthritis. The intervention was exercise with BCTs. Primary outcomes included physical function, quality of life (QOL) 6 to 12 months after intervention, and adverse events. Secondary outcomes were knee pain, exercise adherence, mobility, and self-efficacy 3 months or more after intervention. The bias risk was assessed using the Risk of Bias 2 tool. The random-effects model was used for the meta-analysis. SYNTHESIS We found 16 individual BCTs, and 37.7% of trials used a single BCT. For meta-analysis, we included 21 RCTs (n = 1623). Most outcomes had a very low certainty of evidence, and the risk of bias was the consistent reason for downgrading evidence levels. The standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.00 (-0.24, 0.24) in physical function, 0.33 (-0.51, 1.17) in exercise adherence, and 0.04 (-0.39, 0.47) in self-efficacy. The risk ratio (95% CI) of adverse events was 3.6 (0.79, 16.45). QOL was not pooled due to insufficient data (very low certainty of evidence). In contrast, the SMD (95% CI) for knee pain reduction and mobility improvement was -0.33 (-0.53, -0.13) and 0.21 (-0.05, 0.47) with moderate and low certainty of evidence, respectively. CONCLUSION The evidence is inconclusive regarding the effectiveness of BCTs with exercises on core outcome sets. Further research should explore the effectiveness of BCTs with valid design.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial form of rheumatic condition contributing to physical and psychological factors. Treatments have been provided solely and often compared with each other. An alternative view is that combined treatments addressing physical and psychological factors may result in more benefits. This study aimed to investigate the effect of pain neuroscience education (PNE) followed by Pilates exercises (PEs) in participants with knee OA, compared to PE alone. METHODS In this two-arm assessor-blind pilot randomized controlled trial, fifty-four community-dwelling adults with knee OA were randomly assigned to the PNE followed by PEs and PEs groups (27 in each group). The study was conducted between early July 2021 and early March 2022 at the university's health center. Primary outcomes were Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) subscales of pain and physical limitation and secondary outcomes were Pain Catastrophizing Scale, Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, and Timed "Up & Go" test covering function. The primary and secondary outcomes were measured at baseline and eight weeks post-treatment. A general linear mixed model was used for between-group comparison with a statistical significance level of 0.05. RESULTS Significant within-group differences were observed in all outcomes in both groups at post-treatment. There were no statistically between-group differences in pain (adjusted mean difference: -0.8; 95% CI -2.2 to 0.7; p = 0.288), physical limitation (adjusted mean difference: -0.4; 95% CI -4 to 3.1; p = 0.812) and function (adjusted mean difference: -0.8; 95% CI -1.8 to 0.1; p = 0.069) at eight weeks. For pain catastrophizing (adjusted mean difference: -3.9; 95% CI -7.2 to -0.6; p = 0.021), kinesiophobia (adjusted mean difference: -4.2; 95% CI -8.1 to -0.4; p = 0.032), and self-efficacy (adjusted mean difference: 6.1; 95% CI 0.7 to 11.5; p = 0.028) statistically between-group improvements were observed favoring PNE followed by PEs group after the treatment. CONCLUSIONS Combining PNE with PEs could have superior effects on psychological characteristics but not on pain, physical limitation, and function, compared to PEs alone. This pilot study emphasizes the need to investigate the combined effects of different interventions. TRIAL REGISTRATION IRCT20210701051754N1.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disorder in the world and its incidence is rising, and one of the most frequent causes of pain, loss of function and disability in adults. AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Mat Pilates on health status, pain, stiffness, and functionality of older adult women with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). METHODS A randomized-controlled trial to preliminarily test an intervention protocol of Mat Pilates in older women with KOA on health status, pain, stiffness, and functionality. This study included 41 volunteers with age over 40 years, which mean was 52.1 ± 8.9 years, and were allocated into Mat Pilates and control groups. The protocol was developed to be performed in 60 min, twice a week; the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the Medical Outcomes Study 36 (SF-36) were used to assess pain, to evaluate functionality and stiffness. RESULTS The Mat Pilates group significantly improved the functional capacity assessed by SF-36 (33.12 ± 22.03 to 69.37 ± 22.43, p < 0.05), and by WOMAC (29.75 ± 6.92 to 9.75 ± 9.35, p < 0.05). The pain domain also improved in Mat Pilates group assessed by SF-36 (39.50 ± 12.89 to 71.75 ± 18.66, p < 0.05) and by WOMAC (8.00 ± 2.56 to 2.75 ± 3.01, p < 0.05). The total score of WOMAC (41.75 ± 10.39 to 14.25 ± 13.88, p < 0.05), and the general health status assessed by SF-36 (59.44 ± 18.07 to 82.75 ± 12.03, p < 0.05) only improved for Mat Pilates group. No differences were observed in outcomes for the control group in both questionnaires. CONCLUSION Our results show that Mat Pilates protocol can improve the health status, pain, and functionality of older women with KOA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic review aims to evaluate the effectiveness and delivery of Pilates to reduce pain and disability and to improve physical function and quality of life in middle-aged to older adults with a range of chronic musculoskeletal conditions. METHODS Searches were conducted using CENTRAL, CINAHL, SCOPUS, Pubmed, PsycInfo, Web of Science Core Collection and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria were controlled trials and observational studies, population mean age 50 years and over with chronic musculoskeletal conditions, using mat-based Pilates exercise. Outcomes included pain, disability, physical function and quality of life. RESULTS Seven studies were included, with a combined total sample of 397 participants (73% female). Pilates was significantly effective (p ≤ 0.05) for reducing back pain, neck pain and pain associated with knee osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. Additional significant disability, physical functioning and quality of life effects were found for back pain, osteoporosis, and knee OA. Overall Pilates was as effective as other exercise. Adherence to group exercise was good, but poor for home exercise. No significant adverse effects were reported. CONCLUSION Pilates is a safe and effective exercise intervention for adults over 50 with a diverse range of musculoskeletal conditions which may otherwise put them at risk of becoming sedentary. Although no overall significant superiority was found over other exercise, participants reported psychosocial benefits particular to the Pilates group exercise, with enjoyment a possible positive factor in adherence. Further research on Pilates exercises for various pathologies could inform teaching and improve engagement with older adults, including those with chronic conditions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis is the most common synovial joint disease and is characterized by progressive destruction of the articular cartilage. This study aimed to compare the effect of Pilates and suspension training in patients with knee Osteoarthritis. METHODS The participants in this randomized trial study were patients with knee Osteoarthritis. In this study, 30 females (61.40 ± 4.85 years) were divided into three groups of suspension training, Pilates, and control group. Participants were randomly assigned to 8-week (3x/week, 1 h/session) Pilates and suspension training program groups. The static and dynamic balance, range of motion, and knee function were respectively measured by The Stork stand balance test, Y balance test, Goniometers, and The WOMAC performance disability questionnaire. To analyze the findings, a dependent sample t-test, covariance test, and Bonferroni's post hoc test were used (P ≤ 0.05). RESULTS Dynamic and static balance in the suspension training and Pilates training caused a significant increase (P ≤ 0.05) compared to the control group. Also, the range of motion and motor performance in the suspension training and Pilates training showed a significant decrease (P ≤ 0.05) compared to the control group. The suspension training compared to the Pilates training was more effective on dynamic and static balance (P ≤ 0.05). Also, the suspension training compared to the Pilates training had more effect on Range of motion and Motor performance (P ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSION It seems that Pilates and suspension training can be used in medical centers as a complementary rehabilitation method among female patients with knee Osteoarthritis to improve the dynamic and static balance, range of motion, and performance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knee osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease and a major cause of functional limitation and pain in adults. The aim of this literature review is to review the existing evidence regarding the impact of exercise in people with knee osteoarthritis concerning physical and functional outcomes. The secondary aim is to provide both healthcare professionals and patients with updated and high-quality recommendations for the management of this condition. METHODS A systematic search was performed at Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science databases, limiting the studies to English, French and Portuguese language, from 2010 to May 2020. Eligible studies were randomized control trials or clinical control trials that compared an intervention consisting of an exercise programme in adult participants with knee osteoarthritis against no intervention. RESULTS A total of 4499 studies were retrieved and 19 articles met the inclusion criteria. Beneficial effects of exercise were found on pain and strength. Regarding function, functional performance and quality of life, evidence is controversial. Both strengthening and aerobic exercise showed positive effects and both aquatic and land-based programmes presented improvement of pain, physical function and quality of life. Relatively to stretching, plyometric and proprioception training, no concrete conclusions can be taken. CONCLUSION Exercise programmes appear to be safe and effective in knee osteoarthritis patients, mainly regarding pain and strength improvement. Pilates, aerobic and strengthening exercise programmes performed for 8-12 weeks, 3-5 sessions per week; each session lasting 1 h appear to be effective. Both aquatic and land-based programmes show comparable and positive effects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Inactivity and obesity are risk factors for osteoarthritis (OA) progression. The purpose of this review was to highlight intervention parameters of exercise and lifestyle diet interventions on clinical outcomes in OA that were published over 15 months, starting January 1, 2018. DESIGN Systematic literature searches were performed in Medline (Pubmed, OVID), Scopus, CINAHL, CENTRAL and Embase from January 1, 2018 to April 1, 2019. Key words included osteoarthritis, exercise, physical activity, diet and nutrition. Randomized controlled designs and data synthesis papers (systematic reviews, meta-analyses, clinical guidelines) written in English, that included humans with OA of any joint were included. Trials were evaluated using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) critical appraisal tool and the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR). Systematic reviews and meta-analyses were evaluated using A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews 2 (AMSTAR 2). Intervention details (RCTs) and key finding from papers were summarized. RESULTS Of 540 titles and abstracts retrieved, 147 full articles were reviewed and 53 met the inclusion criteria, comprised of 39 RCTs and 14 synthesis papers. By addressing inactivity, exercise effectively improves clinical outcomes and, based on low-moderate quality evidence, without further damage to cartilage or synovial tissue. By comparison, much less work focused on minimizing obesity. Diet must be combined with exercise to improve pain, but alone, can improve physical function. CONCLUSIONS Future work is necessary to identify the ideal exercise frequency and intensity and lifestyle diet intervention parameters. Improved adherence to reporting guidelines in future work will greatly enhance the OA rehabilitation field.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the Pilates method on the reduction of pain, improvement of joint function, and quality of life of patients with chronic Chikungunya fever. Design: This is a randomized, controlled, blind trial for the evaluators. Setting: The study was conducted at the Advanced Laboratory in Physical Education and Health at Federal University of Pernambuco, Brazil. Subjects: A total of 51 patients were allocated randomly and divided into 2 groups: a Pilates group (26 patients) and a control group (25 patients). After 12 weeks, 4 patients in the Pilates group and 5 in the control group were lost to follow-up. Intervention: The Pilates group performed 24 Pilates method intervention sessions; the control group continued to receive standard clinical treatment at the outpatient clinic. Main measures: The main measures were as follows: visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, functional capacity evaluated by Health Assessment Questionaire (HAQ), quality of life measured by the 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12), and range of joint motion by goniometry. Results: After 12 weeks, patients in the Pilates group presented lower VAS ( P < 0.001), lower HAQ scores ( P < 0.001), and higher quality-of-life scores ( P < 0.001) compared with the control group. We found statistically significant results for the Pilates group in the range of movement for shoulder, knee, ankle, and lumbar spine ( P < 0.001). In the intragroup analysis, there was a significant improvement in all outcomes evaluated. Conclusion: In this study, patients undertaking Pilates method for 12 weeks had less pain, better function and quality of life, and increased range of joint movement.
