“…Their study results showed that the intensity of pain decreased in both groups of heat therapy and cold therapy. However, in the heat therapy group this reduction was more (Dehghan & Farahbod 2014). Nevertheless, the study population and the type of pain in the two studies were different.…”

Background: Chronic mental illnesses affect cognitive status and behavior, which lead to social and communication impairment and behavioral problems. This research investigated the influence of communication skills training on aggression and quality of life of the patients with chronic mental illnesses. Methods: This study is a quasi-experimental study with pretest and posttest. First, a total of 30 patients with chronic mental illnesses were selected based on the inclusion criteria. Next, they were randomly assigned into the control and experimental groups. The experimental group received techniques of communication skills for 10 sessions (each session 60 minutes, one session per week). The research instruments were The World Health Organization Quality of Life and Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire. Statistical analysis was conducted through analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Results: Our findings indicated that the means of quality of life scores (F=41.62, P=0.001) and aggression (F=11.30, P=0.002) were significantly different between research groups after the intervention. Conclusion: Communication skills training improve behavioral problems and quality of life in patients with chronic mental illnesses. Thus, it is necessary to use these skills to prevent and decrease behavioral problems and promote social skills in patients with mental disorders.

Медицинская реабилитация представляет собой комплекс немедикаментозных методов, направленных на уменьшение боли и функциональных нарушений, восстановление трудоспособности, социальной активности и психической устойчивости больных. Это необходимая часть лечения пациентов с ревматическими заболеваниями, во многих случаях (например, при остеоартрите, хронической неспецифической боли в спине и спондилоартритах) столь же важная, как и фармакотерапия. К сожалению, многие российские врачи недооценивают возможности немедикаментозных подходов, ссылаясь на то, что эффективность методов медицинской реабилитации и физиотерапии не оценивалась в ходе клинических исследований, а их терапевтическая значимость не проходила серьезной проверки с позиции «доказательной медицины». Это не совсем так. Настоящий обзор представляет данные большого числа клинических исследований и соответствующих метаанализов, посвященных изучению эффективности наиболее часто применяемых методов медицинской реабилитации: криотерапии, лазерной терапии, магнитотерапии, ультразвуковой терапии, чрескожной электронейромиостимуляции, акупунктуры, мануальной терапии, массажа, лечебной физкультуры. Ключевые слова: ревматические заболевания; медицинская реабилитация; физиотерапия.

“…If LBP persists for 3 months it is considered as chronic and may cause physical and psychological limits, and a major economic burden causes absence from work [3][4][5]. Numerous modalities of conservative therapeutic interventions are available to achieve the best health benefi ts in people suff ering from LBP, e.g., kinesiotherapy, physical therapy, behavior therapy [6][7][8][9][10]. People with LBP continue to experience pain and disability despite receiving the best evidence based therapy, and a further research is needed to improve the treatment.…”

Introduction: Numerous modalities of conservative therapeutic interventions are available to achieve the best health benefits in people with Low Back Pain (LBP), e.g., kinesiotherapy, physical therapy, behavior therapy. People with LBP continue to experience pain and disability despite receiving the best evidence based therapy. Osteopathic Manual Therapy (OMT) and Kaltenborn-Evjenth Ortopedic Manual Therapy (KEOMT) are the other options, although their effectiveness remains controversial. The aim of this study is a proposal for a protocol for randomized trials to compare the effectiveness of OMT vs. KEOMT on pain and disability in people suffering from LBP. Methods and analysis: It's a randomized study with two-arms parallel, designed with concealed allocation, the assessor's blinding with intention to-treat analysis. It will include 34 people a group with severe disability ranged from 41 to 60% in Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). There will be two groups: a treatment group (OMT) and a comparison group (KEOMT). All the patients in both groups will receive 2 treatments a week for 5 weeks. Each session in both groups will not exceed 30 minutes. During each session OMT and KEOMT techniques will be repeated 3 times. A baseline assessment will be performed pre and post intervention, two days later. The following parameters will be assessed during the evaluations: Numeric Pain Rating Scale – NPRS, ODI. Ethics and dissemination: The trial was approved by the Scientific Research Ethics Committee of University of Warmia and Mazury, Olsztyn, Poland. Registration approval number: 9/2018. Trial registration: The study protocol was prospectively registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry on December 28, 2019 (registration ID: ChiCTR1900028580). Strengths and Limitations of this Study The participants' random allocation to the experimental and the control groups. The same experienced physiotherapist, blind to the outcome measures, provides the interventions. The same assistant, blind to the group allocation, administrates the outcomes. The same number of the interventions, the compared contact time with the physiotherapist providing the interventions. A short follow-up period and/or a rather small sample size.
