Core stability in women with and without chronic pelvic pain

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Physical activity (PA) and core stability levels are unknown for women with musculoskeletal chronic pelvic pain (CPP) compared to healthy women. At this time, there is no validated treatment method aimed specifically at CPP. Objective To elucidate the PA habits and core stability of women with and without CPP.

Effect of video‐based game therapy on activation of scapular muscles in children with thoracic hyperkyphosis

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Game‐based rehabilitation has been shown to support motor control and muscle activation in children; therefore, video‐based gaming may represent a promising rehabilitation approach for targeting scapular muscles. Objective To examine the effects of video‐based game therapy on scapular muscle activation, strength, and upper extremity

An Ergonomic Customizable Soft Robotic Glove Toward Personalized Hand Rehabilitation

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Soft robotic gloves for hand rehabilitation are often limited by poor fit and uneven pressure on the fingers. Here, the authors report an ergonomic all‐fabric glove whose dual‐action actuators are tailored to individual finger geometry by CNC heat sealing, with symmetrical chambers that distribute interface pressure more evenly. Weighing only 90 g, the

Intermittent low‐intensity contractions cause a dissociation between maximal motor unit firing rates and changes in torque and contractile speed

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The purpose was to test: (1) whether the decline in maximal motor unit (MU) firing rate is an invariable response when maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) torque is reduced following a submaximal muscle fatiguing task; and (2) whether fatigue‐induced slowing of contractile speed and firing rate decline are co‐dependent. Ten participants (three

Increased corticospinal excitability after rest with short term motor performance

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Motor skill performance is associated with early changes in corticospinal excitability (CSE), yet the influence of rest periods surrounding motor activity on these neurophysiological responses remains unclear. This study examined how matched pre‐ and post‐activity rest intervals influence CSE following novel fine motor task performance. Twenty‐

Muscle Massage Adding Capacitive Resistive Electric Transfer Therapy in Active or Sham Condition for Post‐Exercise Recovery in Athletes: A Crossover Clinical Trial

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing demands of elite sports reduce recovery time, impair performance, and increase injury risk. Efficient lactate transport is essential for postexercise recovery. Capacitive resistive electric transfer (CRET) therapy enhances deep tissue heating, induces vasodilation, and promotes circulation. To evaluate whether adding active CRET
