The Brazilian Journal of Physical Therapy (BJPT) is the official publication of the Brazilian Society of Physical Therapy Research and Graduate Studies (ABRAPG-Ft). It publishes original research articles on topics related to the areas of physical therapy and rehabilitation sciences, including clinical, basic or applied studies on the assessment, prevention, and treatment of movement disorders.

CiteScore measures average citations received per document published. Read more
SRJ is a prestige metric based on the idea that not all citations are the same. SJR uses a similar algorithm as the Google page rank; it provides a quantitative and qualitative measure of the journal's impact.
SNIP measures contextual citation impact by wighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field.
- •
Only 50% of the published trials were registered.
- •
Unregistered trials may have collected other measures that remain unreported.
- •
Many additional outcomes not appearing in trial registries were published.
- •
Some reported positive findings are likely spurious due to unadjusted multiple comparisons.
- •
Beliefs are an important target for the management of musculoskeletal pain.
- •
Behavioural learning is key to elicit and disconfirm unhelpful beliefs.
- •
We propose key principles to guide clinicians in promoting behavioural change.
- •
A case illustrates the role beliefs have on musculoskeletal pain management.
- •
146 patients were rehabilitated by a mobile health program after arthroplasty
- •
Physical activity (PA) was recorded each day by means of fitness trackers
- •
Patient reached their pre-operative physical activity level at 7-week post-surgery
- •
This study identified predictors for physical activity recovery
- •
The way to facilitate access to scientific articles is share the results of their studies over the internet.
- •
In order to measure the attention attracted online, a new score named Altmetric was created.
- •
There are no studies that have analysed associated factors of Altmetric score for systematic reviews and clinical practice guidelines.
- •
Warm water immersion therapy (WWIT) reduces inflammatory pain in mice.
- •
Spinal inhibitory neuroreceptors are involved in WWIT-induced pain-relieving effect.
- •
Opioid, cannabinoid and adenosine receptors contribute to WWIT pain-relieving effect.
- •
There is no association between uCTX-II and the knee joint load.
- •
The uCTX-II level is associated with pain and physical function.
- •
Knee joint load showed no association with pain and physical function.
- •
Total score of the Brazilian Bournemouth Questionnaire is valid.
- •
The Brazilian Bournemouth Questionnaire for low back pain is reliable.
- •
Standard Error of Measurement was 5.97 points.
- •
Minimum Detectable Change was 16.54 points.
- •
The FGA evaluates postural stability during various walking tasks.
- •
The FGA is now available in Brazilian-Portuguese language.
- •
The FGA-Brazil has overall excellent reliability and good internal consistency.
- •
The FGA-Brazil should be used both in clinical practice and for research purposes.
- •
The combination of heat and TENS significantly improves pain pressure thresholds.
- •
The combination of heat and TENS does not affect maximum and average pain, nor movement-evoked pain (MEP).
- •
There is a need for standardized and sensitive assessment tools for measuring MEP.
- •
SpO2 was commonly monitored during exercise testing
- •
Oxygen was available during exercise testing and training in most programs
- •
The rationale for prescribing oxygen during exercise varied between programs
