AbstractMany of the impairments associated with lumbo-pelvic-femoral conditions, like tightness of the iliotibial band, may be bound with postural asymmetry, abnormal chain pattern, and restriction of the range of motion. Although physical therapists currently utilize the right sidelying respiratory left adductor pull back (RSRLAPB) technique for numerous musculoskeletal conditions, there is little research published on the efficacy of the technique. Therefore, this study explored the effect of RSRLAPB exercise on hip adduction angle in subjects with iliotibial band tightness.The total of 30 participants (16 males, 14 females) were recruited on the basis of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and randomized into two groups. Group 1 (experimental group) received moist heat pack, stretching, and RSRLAPB exercise for 3 weeks, while in group 2 (control group), moist heat pack and stretching were applied for 3 weeks. Both groups were tested at baseline and post-intervention for hip adduction angle.Statistically significant differences in hip adduction angle were observed between groups 1 and 2 (The results revealed that RSRLAPB exercise not only improves limited hip adduction in subjects with iliotibial band tightness but also rectifies postural asymmetry and establishes normal respiratory pattern.

The objective of this study is to measure the effectiveness of a program on improving inhibitory and emotional control among children. In addition, it is assessed whether the improvement of these skills has an effect on the reduction of aggressive behavior in pre-school children. The participants were 100 children, 50 belonging to the control group and 50 to the experimental group, aged between 5 and 6 years. Pre-intervention and post-intervention measures of inhibitory and emotional control (BRIEF-P) and aggression (BASC) were taken. A Generalized Linear Mixed Model analysis (GLMM) was performed and found that children in the experimental group scored higher on inhibitory and emotional control compared to their peers in the control group. In addition, these improvements have an effect on the decrease in aggressiveness. In conclusion, preventive research should have among its priorities the design of such program given their implications for psychosocial development.

Preemptive analgesia inhibits the progression of pain caused by surgical lesions. To analyze the effect of lidocaine on postoperative pain relief, we performed compression of the right sciatic nerve in Wistar rats and observed the differences on behavior between the group that received lidocaine and the group that was not treated with the local anesthetics pre-operatively. Group 1 was not operated (control); group 2 underwent the sciatic nerve ligature without lidocaine; group 3, underwent surgery with previous local infiltration of lidocaine. Group 2 showed significantly longer scratching times with a peak on day 14 post-operative (p=0.0005) and reduction in the latency to both noxious (p=0.003) and non-noxious (p=0.004) thermal stimulus. Group 3 presented significantly shorter scratching times (p=0.004) and longer latency times when compared to Group 2. Preemptive use of lidocaine 2% can potentially reduce the postoperative neuropathic pain associated with sciatic nerve compression.

The successful provision of optimal nutrition in children with serious diseases depends on the right diet, as well as the addition of specialized mixtures for its correction. The aim of the study was to study the effectiveness of supplemental nutrition in hereditary fermentopathy (cystic fibrosis) in children. The work included a three-year follow-up of 69 children aged 3 to 15 years suffering from cystic fibrosis. Patients were divided into two groups: 37 patients with cystic fibrosis group 1, receiving a modified version of treatment with additional enteral nutrition and 32 patients with cystic fibrosis group 2, receiving traditional treatment. The study conducted a comparative analysis of changes in trophic status in patients using nutritional support mixture produced in the Russian Federation – "Nutrien-standard"in diet therapy. Laboratory, functional and anthropometric parameters were monitored once a month. A significant increase in the physical development of patients was obtained only in the second year of use in the diet of supplementary nutrition, p<0.05. At the 3rd year of treatment, the results of positive dynamics of nutritional status in both groups were confirmed, while the increase in body mass index in the main group was 6.7%, and in the control group-only 1% (p<0.05). It is noted that the use of this mixture allows to achieve positive dynamics of nutritional status in 27% of patients and in 73% of cases to completely eliminate it. The obtained results prove the expediency of additional use of "Nutrient-standard" mixture in the complex therapy of patients with hereditary pancreatic enzyme deficiency, cystic fibrosis

Study Objective: To know about the effects of cryotherapy and active stretching together and active stretching alone for improving hamstring flexibility in asymptomatic individuals. Method: 22 subjects were participated in study of the age 18 to 40. Subjects were randomly and equally assigned to static stretching and cryotherapy (group 1) and only active stretching (group 2). Subjects in each group were given stretching and cryotherapy for three weeks. Pre and post assessment of ROM was measured by the KEA, SLR and Sit and reach test. Results: After three weeks of intervention there was a significant difference between pre intervention and post intervention score in both the group but in group 1 showed significant difference between KEA, SLR and SRT variables. Conclusion: Subject who received active stretching and cryotherapy showed better improvement than the control group who received only active stretching. Hence it can be concluded that active stretching along with cryotherapy can improve hamstring flexibility than the active stretching only. Key words: Cryotherapy, flexibility, ROM, active stretching.

Purpose Drawing on an outside-in marketing perspective, this paper aims to outline the development, implementation, evaluation and reflection of a real-world entrepreneurship education (EE) intervention with cognitive, affective and ultimately behavioural objectives. Design/methodology/approach A specific and uniform EE program specifically targeted to current “would be” entrepreneurs who were investigating the franchising business model was developed, focusing on the behavioural outcomes. The effectiveness of the EE intervention was evaluated using a quasi-experimental research design, which involved franchisees who had not participated in the EE intervention (control group) and franchisees who had participated in the EE intervention (experimental group). The administration of the national on-line survey yielded a total of 520 responses (194 in the experimental group and 326 in the control group). Findings The planning process in the pre-intervention stage included situation analysis, objective setting and decisions in relation to the communication strategy, i.e. content and mode. The effectiveness of the EE intervention was evaluated in the post-intervention stage. The findings indicate that EE intervention resulted in participants’ positive cognitive, affective and behavioural outcomes such as performance and relationship management. Finally, following a reflection process, additional elements covering topics related to work-life balance were incorporated into the module pertaining to an individual’s suitability to become a franchisee. Originality/value This paper proposes a conceptual framework that represents an outside-in EE approach whereby problems, audiences, objectives and communication strategies (content and method) are strategically intertwined to produce relevant, measurable and diagnostic behavioural outcomes. The EE intervention can also improve the B2B relationship between actors in a business network.

Abstract This study was performed to investigate the Eustachian tube as a potential route for contralateral spreading following intratympanic nanoparticle (NP)-conjugated gentamicin injection in a rat model. Sprague–Dawley rats were divided into three groups and substances were injected in the right ear: group 1 (fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles [F-MNPs], n = 4), group 2 (F-MNP-conjugated gentamicin [F-MNP@GM], n = 2), and control group (no injections, n = 2). T2-weighted sequences corresponding to the regions of interest at 1, 2, and 3 h after intratympanic injection were evaluated, along with immunostaining fluorescence of both side cochlea. The heterogeneous signal intensity of F-MNPs and F-MNP@GM on T2-weighted images, observed in the ipsilateral tympanum, was also detected in the contralateral tympanum in 4 out of 6 rats, recapitulating fluorescent nanoparticles in the contralateral cochlear hair cells. Computational simulations demonstrate the contralateral spreading of particles by gravity force following intratympanic injection in a rat model. The diffusion rate of the contralateral spreading relies on the sizes and surface charges of particles. Collectively, the Eustachian tube could be a route for contralateral spreading following intratympanic injection. Caution should be taken when using the contralateral ear as a control study investigating inner-ear drug delivery through the transtympanic approach.

In order to reach better production and financial results of pork production different technological ways of pig fattening are researched. The purpose of this paper is to show separate results of polyenzyme application and the results of the use of heat-treated cereals in pig fattening as well as the results of their combined application. Pigs fattened on a diet with polyenzyme preparation and heat-treated cereals, either separately or combined, were characterised by an insignificantly higher growth rate and their feed intake per kilogram of weight gain was low compared to pigs fed standard mixtures (control group). In statistical terms, the relative portion of muscle tissue in pork carcass was significantly lower in experimental group 3 fed the mixture with heat-treated cereals than in the other groups. The absolute portion of muscle tissue in pork carcass was statistically more important in experimental group 2 (45.15 kg) receiving the mixture of enzyme additive and heat-treated cereals, and the least important in experimental group 3 (40.92 kg) fed heat-treated cereals. During pig fattening the income for experimental groups was higher than for the control group because of better production results. Average values covering variable expenses show the increase only in the third experimental group in the second fattening period compared to the control group, but these differences were of no statistical importance. &nbsp;

Purpose: Ballet dancers are required to achieve performance feats such as exciting and dramatic elevations. Dancers with a greater jump height can perform a wider range of skills during their flight time and implement more specific technical skills related to the aesthetic components of a dance choreography. New findings suggest the relationship between force and velocity mechanical capabilities (F-V profile) as an important variable for jumping performance. A new field method based on several series of loaded vertical jumps provides information on the theoretical maximal force, theoretical maximal velocity, theoretical maximal power, and the imbalance between force and velocity (F-VIMB). The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of 9 wk of individualized F-V profile-based training during countermovement jumps (CMJs) in female ballet dancers. Methods: CMJ and mechanical outputs of 46 dancers (age = 18.9 [1.1] y, body mass = 54.8 [6.1] kg, height = 163.7 [8.4] cm) were estimated in a pre–post intervention. The control group (10 participants) continued with the standardized training regimen (no resistance training), whereas the experimental group (36 participants) performed 2 sessions over 9 wk of a training plan based on their F-V profile. Results: The experimental group presented significant differences with large effect sizes in CMJ height (29.3 [3.2] cm vs 33.5 [3.72] cm), theoretical maximal force (24.1 [2.2] N/kg vs 29.9 [2.8] N/kg), and theoretical maximal velocity (4 [0.6] m/s vs 3.2 [0.5] m/s). Significant differences with a very large effect size were found in F-VIMB (43.8% [15.3%] vs 24.9% [8.7%]). Conclusion: A training program addressing F-VIMB is an effective way to improve CMJ height in female ballet dancers.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a eficácia do tratamento cirúrgico “splitting” em lesões tendíneas agudas induzidas experimentalmente. Para tanto, foram utilizados 8 eqüinos sadios, submetidos à aplicação de colagenase (2ml–2,5mg/ml) nos tendões flexores digitais superficiais (TFDS) dos membros torácicos e após 7 dias da aplicação, foram realizadas incisões percutâneas - splitting - no local da lesão dos membros direitos (grupo tratado), permanecendo os membros esquerdos como grupo controle. Os 8 animais foram divididos em 2 grupos de mesmo número, segundo o período da realização das biópsias (grupo 1 - 30o dia e o grupo 2 - 60o dia após indução da tendinite). A monitoração dos animais foi realizada através de exames clínicos, ultra-sonográficos, análises macroscópica e histopatológica. Ao exame clínico não foi observada diferença significativa entre o grupo tratado e o controle. Com o exame ultra-sonográfico foi constatado que no grupo tratado houve uma significativa redução da área média da lesão naqueles membros em que foram observadas lesões iniciais maiores que 30% da área tendínea. Foram observadas menor celularidade do tecido de reparação e maior fibroplastia nos tecidos tratados, indicando melhor maturação tecidual neste grupo. Através dos resultados obtidos conclui-se que o splitting utilizado em lesões com áreas maiores que 30% da área transversal tendínea reduz o tempo de cicatrização da lesão e melhora a remodelação tecidual. Tendon splitting surgical treatment on experimental equine acute tendinitis Abstract The main aim of the present research work was to study the effects of the splitting on equine experimental tendinitis. Eight horses without soundness problems were used in this experiment. The tendinitis was induced by administration of collagenase (2 ml, 2.5 mg/ml) in the superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) of all animals. After 7 days of the induction of tendinitis, an intralesional splitting was carried out with a tendon knife in the right forelimbs, the left forelimbs kept as control. The 8 animals were divided in two groups of 4 according to the period that the biopsies took place: group 1, at the 30th day and group 2 at the 60th day after the splitting had been performed. The splitting and healing processes were monitored by clinical and sonographic examinations during all the experiment, Gross and histopathological analysis of the forelimbs were performed in both groups of animals, at the 30th and the 60th day after the splitting, respectively. Follow-up sonographic examinations displayed the fact that lesions bigger than 30% of the tendon area showed significant decrease in the mean values of the lesion area in the split tendons, when compared with the control group at the days 15, 30 and 60 after the splitting. Split members showed marked improvement in the severity rates and percentile of residual tendon lesion at the 60 day. The cellularity of the repair tissue was significantly lower. besides the fact that there were more mature repair tissue in the split tendons at 30 and 60 days after the splitting. These results allowed to conclude that the split technique used in acute large core lesions reduce the time of wound healing and improve the scar remodeling.
