    Abstract This study was conducted to determine the effects of high-intensity aerobic training on the symptomatology of primary dysmenorrhoea. The study was conducted at Shifa Tameer-e-Millat University, Islamabad, Pakistan, from February 2021 to July 2021. The participants were randomly allocated to two groups - experimental and control - with 21 participants in each group, using the sealed envelope method. Experimental group underwent a structured eight-week high-intensity aerobic training regimen on a treadmill (Intensity 80-90% of target heart rate). The participants in the control group were given low-intensity aerobic training (Intensity 40-60% of target heart rate). The severity of dysmenorrhoea symptoms was assessed using Menstrual Symptom Questionnaire. The study concluded that high-intensity aerobic training is effective in reducing the symptoms of primary dysmenorrhoea.

    Abstract This study was conducted to determine the effect of early physical therapy intervention on symptoms of post-operative ileus after abdominal hysterectomy. This randomised control trial was carried out at the Railway General Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan, from February 2021 to July 2021. Participants were randomly allocated to experimental (n=21) and control (n=21) groups using sealed envelope method. The experimental group received an enhanced physiotherapy rehabilitation plan of care consisting of patient education, breathing exercises, early mobilisation, connective tissue manipulation, and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, while the control group only performed ambulation. The intervention was carried out during the first three days after surgery. Subjective measures were used to determine post-operative ileus. The study results conclude that enhanced early post-operative rehabilitation programme following abdominal hysterectomy has the potential to improve symptoms of post-operative ileus.

    Abstract Objectives: To determine the effects of high-intensity multimodal exercise training on bone mineral density and muscle performance in postmenopausal women.
    Methods: The two-armed, parallel, pilot randomised controlled trial was conducted from November 2020 to July 2021 at Riphah Rehabilitation Centre, Rawalpindi, Pakistan, and comprised women aged 45-70 having been in the post-menopause phase for at least 3 years, with body mass index <30, community ambulant and willing to have exercise therapy. The subjects were randomised into two equal groups. The experimental group A received supervised high-intensity resistance, weight-bearing, balance and mobility training twice weekly for 8 months. The control group B received low-to-moderate intensity exercises. Femoral neck and lumbar spine bone mineral density (g/cm2) were taken through a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan. Muscle performance was measured using 1 repetition maximum for leg and trunk extensors, and 30 sec sit to stand test. Data was analysed using SPSS 21.
    Results: Of the 101 women screened, 28(27.7%) were enrolled; 14(50%) in group A having mean age 53.36±6.28 years, and 14(50%) in group B having mean age 51.71±4.82 years (p>0.05). Group A showed significantly more improvement than group B both with respect to lumbar spine bone mineral density and muscle performance (p<0.05).
    Conclusions: Supervised high-intensity multimodal exercise training protocol had a positive effect on lumbar spine bone mineral density and muscle performance in postmenopausal women.

    Abstract Objective: To determine the effects of thoracic spine manipulation on pain pressure sensitivity of rhomboids muscles and thoracic spine mobility.
    Methods: The randomised controlled trial was conducted at the Women Institute of Rehabilitation Sciences, Abbottabad, Pakistan, from July to December 2019, and comprised subjects aged 18-30 years having active trigger points in rhomboid muscle. The subjects were randomised into experimental group A and control group B. The eperimental group received thoracic manipulation along with conventional physical therapy, while the control group only received conventional physical therapy. The intervention lasted 2 sessions per week for 3 weeks. Pre- and post-intervention assessment was done with numeric pain rating scale, algometry, inclinometer and the neck disability index. Data was analysed using SPSS 20.
    Results: Of the 60 subjects, there were 30(50%) in each of the two groups. There were 21(70%) females and 9(30%) males in group A with an overall mean age of 23.86±4.56 years. In group B, there were 18(60%) females and 12(40%) males, with an overall mean age of 23.93±3.96. There was significant improvement in terms of pain (p<0.01) and pain pressure sensitivity (p<0.05). All outcome measures showed significant intra-group differences (p<0.000).
    Conclusions: Upper thoracic spine manipulation was found to be more effective in treating interscapular pain and pain pressure threshold of trigger points in rhomboid muscles.

    Abstract Pelvic Floor Dysfunctions (PFDs) are a group of disorders characterized by inter-related symptoms of urology, gynaecology, colorectal or general pelvic pain. These mainly cause voiding or defecation disorders, pelvic organ prolapses, sexual dysfunctions and pelvic pain. PFDs adversely impact various domains of women's life including psychological, physical, social and sexual well-being. Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation (PFR) has been recommended as part of a multidisciplinary approach for evaluation and management of the multiple PFDs. The assessment of PFD has improved with utilization of new measurement tools and specific outcome measures for PFDs. PFR is a first-line treatment approach effective for PFDs. However, robust research is needed to test standardised assessment and physical therapy treatment protocols with long term efficacy. In this review, we discuss a range of PFDs, impairment-based classification, recent updates, and advances in the evaluation of PFDs, physical therapy tools and techniques for the treatment of PFDs.
