“…In the long term, kinesiophobia is associated with dysfunction and depression, as well as declines in quality of life and PA 22 23. Researchers have observed kinesiophobia in various medical conditions, such as chronic lower back pain, fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis;24–27 and also in patients with CAD 28. However, there are limited studies on kinesiophobia in patients following CABG.…”

IntroductionPhysical activity (PA) can improve cardiac function, exercise capacity, and quality of life, in addition to reducing mortality by 20%–30% and preventing the recurrence of adverse cardiovascular events in patients following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). However, PA levels are low in patients after CABG. This study intends to explore the mediating effect of kinesiophobia between self-efficacy and PA levels in patients following CABG.Methods and analysisThe proposed study constitutes a prospective, multicentre and cross-sectional study comprising 413 patients. Four teaching hospitals with good reputations in CABG will be included in the study. All of them are located in Beijing, China, and provide medical service to the whole country. This study will assess the following patient-reported outcome measures: demographic information, International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Long, Social Support Rating Scale, Cardiac Exercise Self-Efficacy Instrument, Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia Heart.Ethics and disseminationThis study conforms to the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and relevant ethical guidelines. Ethical approval has been obtained from the Ethics Committee of The Sixth Medical Centre of PLA General Hospital (approval number: HZKY-PJ-2022–2). All study participants will provide written informed consent. Findings from this study will be published in Chinese or English for widespread dissemination of the results.Trial registration numberChinese Clinical Trial Register, ChiCTR2100054098.

“…Finally, psychological, cognitive, and emotional factors will be measured, such as kinesiophobia [38,39], anxiety [40], depression [41], psychological distress [42], and selfefficacy [43][44][45]. For this purpose, we will use the Tampa scale of kinesiophobia (TSK), the state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI), the Beck depression inventory II (BDI-II), and the chronic pain self-efficacy questionnaire (PSEQ), all of them translated and validated in Spanish [45,46].…”

Background: Fibromyalgia (FM) is defined as a chronic syndrome characterized by diffuse musculoskeletal pain, associated with characteristic signs and symptoms such as fatigue and/or sleep and mood disorders, and whose etiology, pathogenesis and prognosis may or may not be known. There is growing evidence of manual therapy as a treatment for pain in the short and medium term, also in patients affected by FM. However, the heterogeneity of the manual therapy treatments administered are a very common clinical practice, as they are based more on the judgment or tendency of the physiotherapist, rather than on clear scientific evidence. Therefore, the aim of the present study protocol will be to determine which manual therapy approach is more effective in addressing health status by improving symptoms (sensory, cognitive, emotional and social) in patients with FM. Methods: a randomized controlled clinical trial with a 3-month follow-up will be carried out with 52 female patients affected by rheumatologist-diagnosed FM will be recruited and evaluated at the Asociación de Fibromialgia y Síndrome de Fatiga Crónica (AFINSYFACRO) in Móstoles, Madrid, Spain. For more details on the protocol, a pilot study was carried out using a non-probability method of judgmental or purposive sampling. Thirteen patients were also evaluated, treated and reevaluated; eight patients were assigned to the myofascial techniques approach (MTA) group and five to the Maitland’s mobilization approach (MMA) group. Results: the preliminary results presented here are intended to show how the planned randomized controlled clinical trial will develop. Patients who received MTA had significantly improved pain and health status outcomes after treatment and at 1-month follow-up, with no significant change in those who received MMA. Conclusions: the exact details of the study protocol on which the manual therapy approach is more effective in addressing health status by improving symptoms (sensory, cognitive, emotional, and social) in patients with FM are presented. Preliminary results show that manual therapy is effective in improving pain and health status in patients with fibromyalgia at short and medium term, with significant results in those who received MTA.

“…We will measure psychological variables related to pain sensitivity and other main signs and symptoms, such as kinesiophobia 29 and self-efficacy. 20,30,31 For this purpose, we will use the Chronic Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, in its Spanish-validated version 32 and the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia, also translated and validated in Spanish.…”

Objective: The purpose of the study will be to evaluate the effect of a rehabilitation program on the improvement of patients with post-COVID-19 musculoskeletal symptoms, as well as to quantify the impact of telemedicine that evaluates the evolution of pain, functionality, and quality of life. Methods: We will carry out a case-control study in post-COVID-19 musculoskeletal symptoms patients who will undergo a multicomponent rehabilitation program, together with an intervention and a follow-up using programmed telemedicine sessions. Data will be collected on the improvement of functional capacity and quality of life, in addition to assessing the evolution of musculoskeletal symptomatology, as well as pain and psychological variables. The telemedicine sessions will improve user adherence and follow-up, and the results are expected to be disseminated to the scientific community during and after the end of the study.
