However, little is known about their kinematic behavior in functional tasks even the gait. Objective: Analyze and compare the kinematic behavior between neutral and pronated feet during squat phase of Anterior and Lateral Step Down (ASD and LSD) tests, and during the stance phase of stair ascent and descent cycle. Methods: Forty-two feet were evaluated. According to the Foot Posture Index, Navicular Drop and Calcaneal Angle, and subdivided into neutral foot (18) and pronated foot (24). For kinematic analysis, nine movements of squat of each test (ASD and LSD) and three cycles of stair ascent and three cycles of stair descent were collected bilaterally for each participant using a three-dimensional capture system of motion, the Oxford Foot Model, and processed by Vicon Nexus® software. The range of motion (ROM) to the four tasks and the angle and temporal values during the stair ascent and descent were analyzed in the three planes of motion for the segments: hindfoot relative to the floor (HFTFL); hindfoot relative to the tibia (HFTBA); forefoot relative to the tibia (FFTBA); and forefoot relative to the hindfoot (FFHFA). For the statistical analysis the MANOVA test was used, adopting the alpha error of 5% (p <0.05). Results: Differences were found for the step down tests for the following segments: HFTFL and FFHFA with lower plantar flexion and dorsiflexion to the pronated foot, respectively, in both tests. For the ASD, the pronated foot, in the frontal plane, showed lower ROM of pronation to FFTBA and FFHFA, while the HFTFL presented ROM of eversion for the neutral foot, and the pronated foot an excursion near zero. During LSD was observed also high ROM of dorsiflexion for the FFTBA. For stair ascent no differences were found between the groups. For stair descent, the differences were concentrated in the sagittal plane, with lower ROM for the pronated foot during the first and second double support, and high ROM during simple support. Besides in the frontal plane was observed lower angular values to the forefoot and in the transversal plane high angular values for the FFHFA and FFTBA. Conclusion: The pronated and neutral feet differ in kinematic behavior during ASD, LSD and stair descent tasks. These kinematic differences found concentrated in the sagittal plane for the three analyzed tasks and in the forefoot segment for descend stairs.
- ItemEmbargoEfeito imediato do uso de órtese de punho na coordenação muscular e na cinemática da extremidade superior de indivíduos sem disfunção e com síndrome do túnel do carpo(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2023-10-30) Figueiredo, Danielle Soares [UNIFESP]; Carvalho, Raquel de Paula [UNIFESP]; Mochizuki, Luis; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8627721608275566; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7980384093582831; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6302722050056109; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Restringir a articulação do punho pode alterar a coordenação muscular e a cinemática proximal da extremidade superior de indivíduos sem disfunções. É fundamental avaliar esses efeitos em populações com disfunções que usam contenção articular no punho, como indivíduos com síndrome do túnel do carpo (STC) que comumente relatam dor no ombro. Assim, o objetivo geral dessa tese foi verificar os efeitos do uso da órtese de punho na coordenação muscular e na cinemática de indivíduos sem disfunção e com STC. Para isso, essa tese foi dividida em três estudos. O Estudo 1 foi uma Revisão Sistemática para primeiramente examinar a efetividade da órtese de punho na redução da dor de indivíduos com STC. A estratégia de busca foi realizada em sete importantes bases de dados. Após o processo de triagem e elegibilidade, três ensaios clínicos aleatorizados, dois ensaios não aleatorizados e um observacional foram incluídos e avaliados sobre o risco de viés pela ferramenta da Colaboração Cochrane. A amostra final variou entre 24 e 91 indivíduos com média de idade entre 42,4 e 58,2 anos. Os estudos utilizaram escalas de autorrelato da dor e mostraram que o uso isolado de órtese reduz a intensidade da dor em indivíduos com STC. O Estudo 2 foi uma Revisão Sistemática para identificar os efeitos da contenção articular de punho na atividade eletromiográfica e na cinemática da extremidade superior de adultos sem disfunções. O método foi semelhante ao Estudo 1, exceto que a avaliação metodológica dos estudos foi realizada pelo Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology checklist e a Newcastle - Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale. Após o processo de triagem e elegibilidade, 13 estudos observacionais foram incluídos. A amostra compreendeu 254 indivíduos entre 18 e 50 anos de idade avaliados em tarefas com e sem diferentes tipos de contenção articular no punho, o que alterou a atividade eletromiográfica de músculos da extremidade superior e a cinemática linear e ângulos articulares de adultos sem disfunções. Esses resultados auxiliaram no delineamento do Estudo 3, que teve o objetivo de avaliar os efeitos imediatos da órtese de punho na coordenação muscular e na cinemática da extremidade superior de indivíduos sem disfunção e de indivíduos com STC. Cinco mulheres entre 22 e 44 anos foram alocadas no Grupo Controle, e três mulheres entre 53 e 64 anos foram alocadas no Grupo STC. O experimento foi realizado em uma única sessão, que iniciou com anamnese, aplicação de questionários, avaliação de pinças e intensidade de dor. Após, a cinemática e os sinais eletromiográficos de músculos da extremidade superior dominante direita foram amostrados durante tarefas de elevação no plano escapular e de alcance, em três procedimentos: (SO1) sem órtese, (CO) com órtese, e (SO2) imediatamente após retirar a órtese. Após, a intensidade de dor foi avaliada novamente. Os testes Kruskal-Wallis, Friedman e Anova foram utilizados com nível de significância adotado ≤0,05. Os resultados da tarefa de elevação mostraram que o Grupo STC apresentou menor duração, distância percorrida e pico de deslocamento comparado ao Controle. Ambos os grupos apresentaram maior número de sinergias musculares encontradas e maior informação mútua entre os sinais eletromiográficos na sessão SO2. Na avaliação da tarefa de alcance, o Grupo STC apresentou menor distância percorrida na sessão SO1 e SO2 e menor velocidade média na sessão SO1. As alterações encontradas na sessão SO2 podem sugerir que houve um aumento compensatório na coordenação muscular proximal como um mecanismo de estabilização dessas articulações como resposta imediata à restrição articular imposta pela órtese. Conclui-se que a órtese de punho pode alterar de maneira imediata a coordenação muscular e cinemática da extremidade superior de indivíduos com e sem STC. Os resultados devem ser interpretados com cautela visto que são preliminares.
- ItemSomente MetadadadosEstratégias motoras de crianças com paralisia cerebral na postura sentada durante o alcance anterior(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-02-09) Geraldini, Juliana Maria Savazzi [UNIFESP]; Carvalho, Raquel de Paula [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Cerebral paralysis (CP) describes a group of permanent disorders of the development of movement and posture, causing activity limitation, that are attributed to non-progressive disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal or infant brain. It is common to have deficits in postural control in these children. There is interest in knowing the movement strategies used during the previous range in the sitting posture, since this posture is widely used for children with CP to perform activities of daily living. The objective of this study was to evaluate the motor strategies used by children with CP during the Pediatric Reach Test (PRT) in the sitting posture. This crosssectional, no probabilistic study was composed of aconvenience selected sample of 40 children, aged 6 to 14 years, 20 with clinical diagnosis of CP, classified as I, II and III according to the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) in the CP group (CPG)and 20 with typical motor development for the control group (CG), paired by age and gender. After anthropometric data colected, children were evaluated by PRT, which is the anterior reaching until to the limit of stability in sitting posture. The test was recorded and the captured images was used for subsequent three-dimensional reconstruction of the movement. Linear kinematic variables of the movement of the styloid process (displacement, time, mean velocity and deceleration index), and angles (initial and final angle of the shoulder, hip, knee and ankle joints) were analyzed. For the statistical analysis we applied the t-Student test for linear variables, and ANOVA with Bonferroni multiple comparison to the angular variables. The significance level of 0.05 was adopted. There was no difference between groups for the weight and height variables, showing the homogeneity of the sample. The CPG showed lower displacement, time, and mean velocity and higher deceleration index. The angular variables showed that both groups used the same movement strategy, but the children of CPG started the movement with higher shoulder flexion, and knees flexion, indicating that this posture with higher impairments can be a factor for lower distance reached, and negatively influences the level of functionality. We conclude that children with CP have lower performance in anterior reaching test in sitting posture, with lower displacement and motor control compared to their peers with typical motor development, and thechanges of alignment evidenced by children with CP generate compensatorymechanisms that reflected the decreased efficiency of anterior reaching movement.
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Manipulação da Restrição da Tarefa de Arremesso em Atletas Amadores de Handebol(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2019-11-27) Ribeiro, Gabriel Aguado [UNIFESP]; Carvalho, Raquel de Paula [UNIFESP]; Tucci, Helga Tatiana [UNIFESP]; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0831002416556265; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7980384093582831; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9262825581139410; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)No handebol, velocidade e precisão são características indispensáveis para o rendimento do arremesso, no entanto, a velocidade final da bola tem relação direta com o nível de rendimento de atletas. Este movimento, assim como os demais, está sujeito a restrições do organismo, do ambiente e da tarefa. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi verificar como a manipulação da tarefa influencia o arremesso em atletas amadores de handebol. Para isso, 18 atletas amadores de handebol entre 18 e 27 anos foram recrutados e realizaram 10 arremessos para a tarefa de força, orientada pelo comando “com sua força máxima, no alvo”, e 10 arremessos para a tarefa de precisão, orientada pelo comando “no centro do alvo”. Foram fixados 8 marcadores em proeminências ósseas do voluntário para captura e posterior reconstrução 3D do movimento. As estratégias de movimento durante as fases de preparação e aceleração do arremesso foram analisadas através de variáveis cinemáticas angulares e espaço-temporais. Empregou-se o teste t de Student para amostras relacionadas. Foi usado o programa SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) e considerou-se nível de significância de p < 0,05. Foram encontradas diferenças significativas de variáveis espaço-temporais em ambas as fases de preparação (velocidade, trajetórias da mão, do acrômio, das espinhas ilíacas) e aceleração (velocidade, tempo, trajetória da espinha ilíaca póstero superior direita e razão entre as trajetórias de acrômio e espinha ilíaca póstero superior direita). Em geral, a tarefa de força apresentou maiores resultados que a tarefa de precisão, com exceção do tempo na fase de aceleração. As variáveis angulares também demonstraram alteração entre as tarefas, tanto para o início da preparação (ângulos de ombro e cotovelo), quanto para o fim da aceleração (ângulo de cotovelo). A tarefa de força apresentou maior índice de acerto e menor variação de desempenho em comparação à tarefa de precisão. Concluiu-se que as tarefas apresentam atratores distintos, modificadas pelo parâmetro de controle que envolvem a intencionalidade do movimento, ou aplicação de torque muscular motivado pelo comando verbal, e a demanda de precisão, representada pelo tamanho do alvo. Estes fatores influenciam o arremesso de atletas amadores de handebol de acordo com a demanda da tarefa.
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Neuromuscular training and muscle strengthening in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome: a protocol of randomized controlled trial(Biomed Central Ltd, 2014-05-16) Rabelo, Nayra Deise dos Anjos; Lima, Bruna; Reis, Amir Curcio dos; Bley, Andre Serra; Yi, Liu Chiao [UNIFESP]; Fukuda, Thiago Yukio [UNIFESP]; Costa, Leonardo Oliveira Pena; Lucareli, Paulo Roberto Garcia; Univ Nove Julho; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Irmandade Santa Casa Misericordia; Univ Cidade São Paulo; George Inst Global HlthBackground: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common musculoskeletal condition, particularly among women. Patients with PFPS usually experience weakness in the gluteal muscles, as well as pain and impaired motor control during activities of daily living. Strengthening the hip muscles is an effective way of treating this disorder. Neuromuscular training has also been identified as a therapeutic tool, although the benefits of this intervention in patients with PFPS patients remain inconclusive.Design: This is a protocol of randomized controlled trial with a blind assessor. Thirty-four women with a clinical diagnosis of PFPS participated. These participants were allocated into two groups (experimental and control). the experimental group performed twelve sessions to strengthen the knee extensors, hip abductor and lateral rotator muscles in association with neuromuscular training of the trunk and lower extremities. the control group performed the same number of sessions to strengthen the muscles of the hip and knee. the primary outcome was functional capacity (Anterior Knee Pain Scale - AKPS) at 4 weeks. Pain intensity, muscle strength and kinematic changes were also measured during the step down test after four weeks of intervention. Follow up assessments were conducted after three and six months to assess functional capacity and pain. the effects of the treatment (i.e. between-group differences) were calculated using mixed linear models.Discussion: the present study was initiated on the 1st of April 2013 and is currently in progress. the results of this study may introduce another effective technique of conservative treatment and could guide physical therapists in the clinical decision-making process for women with PFPS.
- ItemSomente MetadadadosRepeatability of a 3D multi-segment foot model during anterior and lateral step down tests(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2016) Garcia Lucareli, Paulo Roberto; Grohs Contani, Luciane Beatriz; Lima, Bruna; dos Anjos Rabelo, Nayra Deise; Ferreira, Cintia Lopes [UNIFESP]; Silva Lima, Fernanda Pulpio; Ferrari Correa, Joao Carlos; Politti, FabianoThe aim of the present study was to analyse the reproducibility of the Oxford Foot Model (OFM) when used with healthy adults during two clinical tests, i.e., the Anterior Step Down Test (SDA) and the Lateral Step Down Test (SDL). Five healthy participants (one male and four females, 10 limbs in total) with a mean age of 22.2 (19-30) years were assessed in four sessions of tests conducted at intervals of one week. Two independent examiners performed two of the sessions of each of the tests. For each session (intra-day), nine repetitions of each clinical test (SDA and SDL) were performed. After an interval of three hours, the data were collected again. The tests were conducted again after an interval of one week using the same experimental conditions. The intra-and inter-session repeatabilities of the ranges of motion of the feet were determined according to the standard error of measurement (SEM) for each examiner and for the differences between the examiners. The repeatabilities of the results were high for both of the conducted tests. The SEM results were as follows: 0.47-1.948 for the intra-examiner assessment (SDA), 0.55-2.018 for the inter-examiner comparison (SDA), 0.44-2.438 for the intra-examiner assessment (SDL), and 0.54-1.898 for the inter-examiner comparison (SDL). The OFM model was shown to be reproducible in terms of assessing the range of motion of healthy adults during functional tests (SDA and SDL). (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

- ItemSomente MetadadadosTerapia a laser de baixa intensidade na neuroplasticidade e recuperação funcional da lesão medular(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2016) Campo, Paula Fernanda Gallani Martin Del [UNIFESP]; Aguiar, Odair [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Introduction: The spinal cord injury (SCI) consists of any damages to the structures in the medullary canal. This injury can be traumatic or non-traumatic, the latter being the most common. The central nervous system (CNS) has a low ability to get repaired, requiring the use of therapeutic approaches in order to favor neuroplasticity. In this context, low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been proposed as a promising treatment for repairing central and peripheral nervous system injuries. Aim: to investigate the effects of LLLT, after traumatic injuries, on the regeneration and neuroplasticity of the spinal cord, as well as on the sensorial and motor functional recovery. Materials and methods: female wistar rats (n= 33), aging 10 weeks, were submitted to spinal cord injury contusion model (CEUA N: 9329290514). The animals were divided into two groups: control (C; n= 19) and laser (L; n= 14), and they were euthanized after 4 and 8 weeks. The L group was treated, for 15 consecutive days, with continuous emission of GaAlAs laser which was adjusted with the following parameters: λ = 808 nm, power of 100 mW, spot area = 0.028 cm²; t = 4'42 ''; dosage of 1000 J / cm²; E = 28 J; irradiance = 3.57 mW / cm². At days 1, 14, 28 and 56 after the surgery, the motor function (using BBB score and computed kinematics), the thermal sensitivity (using ice) and the tactile sensitivity (using Von Frey® monofilaments) were evaluated. Additionally, histological and immunohistochemical analysis were performed to investigate the lesion volume and the expression of GFAP respectively. Results: The main findings of this study demonstrate, based on the BBB score, that LLLT was able to improve the motor performance in the group L compared to group C after 56 days. Furthermore, LLLT was capable to decrease the immunoexpression of of GFAP marker and the lesion volume in the injury site after 56 days. Conclusion: Based on the results, it is suggested that the effect of LLLT in the lesion (i) assisted in the motor recovery; (ii) reduced the lesion volume and (iii) decreased the GFAP immunostaining. This study indicates that the LLLT is a promising therapeutic approach for the SCI treatment, justifying the need of further investigations utilizing other experimental models and other specific markers.
