Objective: The aim of the study is to compare the effects of telerehabilitation-based individual and group exercise, with routine treatment on exercise capacity,muscle strength,lung function,lower extremity explosive strength,balance,quality of life,and change in clinical status in people with cystic fibrosis (CF).
Method: Eligible participants aged 8 to 18 years will be randomly allocated into 3 groups;a telerehabilitation-based indiviual or group exercise,and a control group. Exercise capacity,muscle and handgrip strength,spirometry measurements,lower extremity explosive strength,balance, quality of life will be assessed. Adherence rate to exercise programs will be calculated. Change in clinical status for all groups, motivation and enjoyment in the intervention groups will be assessed.
Discussion: Telerehabilitation-based exercise programs can minimize barriers to undertaking exercise in CF. If the current research demonstrates similar effects between group and individual telerehabilitation sessions,and better results compared with routine treatment,physical therapists can integrate group tele-exercises into CF centres. This approach may not only save time, but also enhances participant adherence to exercise programs, producing many overall benefits.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the evolution of jump and sprint force-production capacities with maturation in young soccer players. One hundred sixteen young elite male soccer players aged 11-17 years were assigned to six different groups according to their maturity status. The force-velocity (F-V) profiles in jumping and sprinting performances were compared among groups.

Many different microswimmers propel themselves using flagella that beat periodically. The shape of the flagellar beat and swimming speed have been observed to change with fluid rheology. We quantify changes in the flagellar waveforms of in response to changes in fluid viscosity using (i) shape mode analysis and (ii) a full swimmer simulation to analyse how shape changes affect the swimming speed and to explore the dimensionality of the shape space.

Background: Neurological diseases such as stroke or Parkinson's disease are often accompanied by weakening or loss of proprioception, which seriously affects the motor control ability of the patients. However, proprioception rehabilitation is challenging due to the pain caused by impaired joints and the hard efforts that patients have to make during training. This study investigated the cross-transfer effect of short-term visuomotor training to the untrained wrist from the trained wrist, from both views of behavioral results and brain activity analyses.

Background: Clinical and basic research suggests that exercise is a safe behavioral intervention and effective in improving cognition in vascular dementia (VD). However, despite global efforts, there is still no effective method to completely cure VD. This study aimed to investigate the effects of long-term exercise pretreatment on typical VD pathology in a rat model, and further compare the neuroprotective impacts of different exercise modalities on VD rats.

In the past century, the human Lifespan has doubled. However, this is not equivalent to Healthspan which refers to the number of years spent healthy and free from disease. Women have an additional level of complexity on the path to optimal healthspan where health resilience dramatically decreases following menopause and this is due to their ovaries aging by midlife.
