Aquatic Exercise Science
Completamos um ano desta base de dados em Fisioterapia Aquática/Exercícios Aquáticos com 89 estudos catalogados, aproximadamente 400 autores e 23 países envolvidos nas publicações. Na publicação do mês de julho temos seis revisões, três sistemáticas, envolvendo crianças com paralisia cerebral, cancer de mama e doença de Parkinson, duas de escopo, abordando também paralisia cerebral mais focada em adolescentes e adultos e uma de fibrose cística. Tivemos também uma revisão narrativa sobre osteoartrite, porém com um detalhe importante, os autores citam um guideline chamado SANRA para análise do risco dos estudos incluídos. Quanto aos ensaios clínicos aleatórios temos duas publicações iranianas, ambas com osteoartrite de joelho, uma sobre a aplicação da estimulação transcraniana por corrente contínua e outra que aborda treino com ativação do quadríceps e marcha. Há um ensaio clínico não aleatório sobre quatro tipos de tratamento para pacientes hipertensivos, um relato de caso sobre fratura do úmero e análise de série temporal e um relato de série de casos (que precisa ser confirmado), que envolveu pessoas com necessidades especiais. Por último um estudo transversal, comparando exercícios em solo e água por meio da cinemática. Confiram a lista abaixo:
We’ve completed one year of this Aquatic Physical Therapy/Aquatic Exercise database, with 89 cataloged studies, approximately 400 authors, and 23 countries involved in the publications. In July, we have six reviews: three systematic, involving children with cerebral palsy, breast cancer, and Parkinson’s disease; two scoping reviews, also addressing cerebral palsy more focused on adolescents and adults; and one study on cystic fibrosis. We also include a narrative review on osteoarthritis, however, with an interesting detail: the authors cited a guideline called SANRA for risk analysis of the studies included. Regarding randomized controlled trials, there are two Iranian publications, both on knee osteoarthritis; one on the application of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and the other on training with quadriceps activation and gait. In addition, there is a non-randomized controlled trial on four types of treatment for hypertensive patients; a case report on humerus fracture and time-series analysis; and a case series report (which needs to be confirmed) involving people with special needs. Finally, we include a cross-sectional study comparing on land and water exercises using kinematics. Check out the list below:
