Abstract	Type 2 diabetic peripheral neuropathy is known to cause balance limitations in static, dynamic, and functional activity. The Mini-BESTest, a shortened version of BESTest, was evolved to identify balance disorders within a short duration. No prior studies have yet been conducted to assess the usefulness of Mini-BESTest in the diagnosis of type 2 diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The current study aimed to examine the reliability and discriminant validity by comparing the Mini-BESTest scores between type 2 diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy, divided into two 2 groups based on reporting scores of <4 and ≥4 in the MNSI questionnaire, respectively. Therefore, a cross-sectional study design was conducted including 44 type 2 diabetic patients (4 males and 40 females; aged 56.61 ± 7.7 years old). Diabetic peripheral neuropathy was diagnosed by physical assessment using the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI). Inter-rater (two physiotherapists) and Intra-rater (7–10 days) reliability of the Mini-BESTest were explored with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC 2,1 ) and (ICC 3,1 ). The Mini-BESTest presented an excellent inter-rater reliability (ICC 2,1 = 0.95, 95% CI = 0.91–0.97, SEM = 0.61) and an excellent intra-rater reliability (ICC 3,1 = 0.93, 95% CI = 0.87–0.96, SEM = 0.66), with confirmation by a good agreement presented by the Bland–Altman plots. The internal consistency measured with the overall Cronbach’s alpha showed an acceptable agreement (0.73). The MDC was 2.16. In addition, the Mini-BESTest scores in the type 2 diabetic neuropathy patients reporting MNSI questionnaire scores <4 was found to be significantly higher when compared with those reporting scores ≥4. The Mini-BESTest can be used as a highly reliable and valid clinical application in the population with type 2 diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Abstract	The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of static balance impairment in university student smartphone users with subclinical neck pain and identify the associated risk factors. Because of rapid and widespread smartphones use, and the subsequent effect on neck pain in university students, it is essential to determine the prevalence of balance impairment and associated factors in this population. Simple random sampling was completed among eighty-one participants in this cross-sectional study. A self-reported questionnaire, fitted precisely for smartphone users, was used prior to clinical assessment by the Balance Error Scoring System. Both simple and multiple logistic regressions were used to analyze the prevalence of static balance impairment and associated factors. The prevalence of static balance impairment in university student smartphone users with subclinical neck pain was 74.07% (95% CI: 64.32 to 83.82). The significant risk factors were “daily smartphone use ≥ 4 h’’ (AOR: 19.24 (95% CI 4.72 to 78.48) p = 0.000), “≥4 years of smartphone use” (AOR: 5.01 (95% CI 1.12 to 22.38) p = 0.035), and “≥7 neck disability index score’’ (AOR: 12.91 (95% CI 2.24 to 74.45) p = 0.004). There was a high prevalence of static balance impairment in university smartphone users with subclinical neck pain. University student smartphone users with subclinical neck pain who met at least one of the risk factors should realize their static balance impairment.

Abstract	Exercise may reduce the risk of falls in the elderly. The objective of the study was to determine the effect of a progressive step marching exercise (PSME) program on balance ability, lower limb muscle strength, aerobic capacity, quality of life, and fear of falling in the elderly. A cluster randomized controlled trial was selected where 30 elderly participants (aged 69 ± 3 years) from a community were supervised while performing a PSME program and 30 (aged 70 ± 3 years) from another community were assigned to a control group. All participants in both groups underwent timed up and go test, one leg standing test, five time sit to stand test, two minutes step test, World Health Organization Quality of Life-Thai version, and fall efficacy scale Thai version at baseline, after exercise at 4 and 8 weeks. The PSME group underwent the program for 8 weeks while those in the control group were instructed to continue their normal activity. After training, the PSME showed significant improvement ( p < 0.05) in all parameters except one leg standing and two minutes step test when compared to the control group ( p < 0.05). In conclusion, the PSME program could improve balance ability, lower limb muscle strength, quality of life, and fear of falling in the elderly.

Abstract	Introduction Shuai Shou Gong (SSG) is a type of Arm Swing Exercise (ASE) developed and practiced especially by older people in China for over one thousand years to maintain physical health and well-being. Until now the potential benefits of SSG have not been investigated in a Randomised Control Trial (RCT). Materials and methods Fifty six older women were recruited from each of two urban communities in Khon Kaen, Thailand. One community was randomly assigned as the Exercise Group (mean age 68.3 years, standard deviation 5.6 years) and the other as the Control Group (69.4 years, 4.4 years). The Exercise Group performed SSG for 40 minutes, three days per week for two months, whereas the Control Group maintained their usual daily life. Measurements of Posture (C7 to Wall Distance (C7WD), Standing Height (SH), Flexibility (Back Scratch of Left and Right arms (BSL and BSR) and Chair Sit and Reach of Left and Right legs (CSRL and CSRR), Gait (Timed Up and Go (TUG)), and Cognition (Barthel Activities of Daily Living Index (BADL) and Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale (RSES) questionnaires) were recorded for each group prior to, on day 1, week 4, and week 8 of the SSG training. Results The 8 week SSG training course produced a significant interaction between group and time for the combined set of all outcome measures (C7WD, SH, BSL, BSR, CSRL, CSRR, TUG, BADL, and BSES) (Modified ANOVA-Type Statistic (MATS) p-value < 0.001) and for the four categories of Posture, Flexibility, Gait, and Cognition (all Wald-Type Statistic (WTS) p-values < 0.05) and in all cases the changes in the Exercise Group were in the direction predicted to be beneficial. No significant interaction effect between time and group was found after either one session or four weeks of SSG training for any of the categories (all WTS p > 0.05) with significant effects only arising after eight weeks (all WTS p < 0.05). Thus although alterations were shown to be increasingly beneficial over time the minimum period required to produce a statistically ...

Abstract	Objectives: To determine the immediate and short-term effect of modified active release technique (mART) in patients with scapulocostal syndrome on pain intensity, average intensity of pain within 24 hours, pressure pain threshold, and cervical and shoulder range of motion. Methods: Fifty two patients with scapulocostal syndrome (5 males, 47 females) were recruited in this study. They were divided into two groups by stratified block random allocation. Usual care of physical therapy (hot pack and ultrasound) and sham manual therapy were applied for control group. Usual care of physical therapy and mART technique were applied for the experimental group. Each group was received 3 times per week of treatment within 3 weeks. Pain intensity, average intensity of pain within 24 hours, pressure pain threshold, and cervical and shoulder range of motion were investigated before and after first treatment and one day after last treatment. Paired samples t-test was used to determine significant difference within group. ANCOVA was used to evaluate significant difference between groups, using a pre-test as a covariate variable. Results: Results showed the reduction of pain intensity and average intensity of pain within 24 hours, increasing of pressure pain threshold, cervical and shoulder range of motion in both groups when compared within group (p<0.05) before and after first treatment and one day after last treatment. However, the outcome measurements in experimental group were shown significant difference compared to control (p<0.05). Conclusion: The mART with usual care of physical therapy showed immediate and short term effects for pain reduction and improvement of cervical and shoulder range of motion in patients with scapulocostal syndrome.

Abstract	Background: Scapulocostal syndrome (SCS) is a common clinical disorder, which consisted of major signs and symptoms including chronic pain of scapular region and myofascial trigger point around scapular muscles. One of common treatment for SCS is manual therapy, such as modified active release technique (mART) and traditional Thai massage (TTM). Both techniques were shown similar therapeutic effects on pain reduction and increased cervical and shoulder range of motion, however, comparison of efficacy is needed for proving. Objectives: To compare the immediate therapeutic effects between modified active release technique (mART) and traditional Thai massage (TTM) on pain alteration in patients with scapulocostal syndrome. Materials and methods: Seventy patients with scapulocostal syndrome (16 males, 54 females) were recruited. They were divided into two groups by stratified block random allocation including mART group and TTM group. Treatments of mART or TTM were performed 30 minutes. Pain intensity and pressure pain threshold were investigated before and immediately after treatment. Paired samples t-test was used to determine significant difference within group, while ANCOVA was used to evaluate significant difference between groups, and using a pre-test as a covariate variable. Results: Comparative results within group, pain intensity was decreased significantly in both groups (p<0.05), while pressure pain threshold was increased significantly in both groups (p<0.05). However, outcome measurements in both groups were shown no significant difference when compared between groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: mART can improve pain intensity and pressure pain threshold similar to TTM in patients with scapulocostal syndrome.

Abstract	Objectives. This paper aims at exploring the effects of GUASHA on heart rate variability between healthy volunteers under normal condition and weightlifters after training sessions. Methods. Ten healthy male volunteers under normal condition and 15 male weightlifters after weightlifting training sessions were recruited into two groups. Electrocardiography was recorded before and immediately after 20-minute GUASHA. HRV was calculated in both the time domain and the frequency domain. Results. Stress index was reduced, while standard deviation of N-N intervals (SDNN), proportion derived by dividing the number of interval differences of successive N-N intervals greater than 50 ms, and root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD) were enhanced after GUASHA therapy in the two groups. The changes in SDNN and RMSSD were higher in the healthy men group than in the weightlifters group. In addition, low frequency was decreased whereas high frequency was significantly increased in healthy men after the GUASHA session. Conclusions. GUASHA therapy facilitates the parasympathetic nervous activity and modulates the balance between parasympathetic and sympathetic activities in both healthy men under normal condition and weightlifters after training sessions as indicated. Although the changes of the HRV parameters were similar in both groups, the responsiveness was more pronounced in healthy men than in male weightlifters.
