- •
Individuals in the short and typical resting PMm length groups had similar amounts of PMm elongation during active and passive lengthening procedures.
- •
These groups also had similar amounts of PMm length change, and scapulothoracic motion during overhead arm motions.
- •
These results support the need for further research to better understand how resting PMm length influences PMm elongation and scapulothoracic motion.
- •
Findings from this study should not be applied to individuals with shoulder pain as the study participants were free from shoulder pain at the time of the study.
- •
Obstacles during rehabilitation need to be faced in order to promote adherence.
- •
Financial crisis has an impact in adherence to recommended home exercises.
- •
Communication, individual's needs, capacities, and resources are essential for adherence.
- •
Boys develop more pronounced isometric muscular strength starting at 10 years of age and it peaks at 14 and 15 years.
- •
The Handheld dynamometer has excellent inter-rater reliability and an intra-rater agreement for all muscle groups tested.
- •
The development of muscle strength for the Brazilian population is similar to that observed in the northern hemisphere.
- •
Most of the studies included in this review showed adequate methodological quality.
- •
There is information only on the reference values for muscle strength measured with dynamometers/myometers.
- •
The meta-analysis provided reference values for the strength of 14 muscle groups.
- •
Inspiratory loaded breathing (ILB) modifies chest wall volumes in patients with heart failure (HF).
- •
ILB associated with diaphragmatic breathing (ILBdi) increases abdominal volume in these patients.
- •
Chest wall tidal volume and breathing pattern variables are similar between ILB and ILBdi.
- •

- •
Improve understanding patients’ contextual factors and features of physical space.
- •
Patient-centred relationship depends on professional, patient's attitudes and context.
- •
Progression through the difficulty levels of Pilates exercises is empirically guided by the therapist.
- •
It is important to identify which factors may slow or improve this progression.
- •
Factors such as pain and disability do not slow the progression of exercise.
- •
Previous physical activity, educational level, age and number of absences slow the progression.
- •
Therapists should use this information when progressing exercises.
- •
Children at rDCD use feedback to improve their ability to fine-tune.
- •
Children at rDCD are more dependent of the visual feedback than TD children.
- •
Children at rDCD are more variable than TD children on fine-tune after practice.
