Abstract

Background: Entering old age, the elderly often face various problems, one of which is impaired cognitive function. Some factors that influence the decline in cognitive abilities in the elderly include gender, education level, occupation, nutritional status, and comorbidities that can interfere with the nervous system, such as dementia and Alzheimer's disease. The problem of dementia in the elderly is an important concern that requires effective prevention and treatment. Dementia in the elderly can include several aspects, such as orientation, registration, attention and calculation, memory, and language. Physiotherapy has an important role in maintaining and improving body movement function, so that a person can remain active independently. Aerobic physical activity can activate the hypothalamus to synthesize corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), which will affect the release of neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine, serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine that improve memory consolidation. Objective: To determine the effect of aerobic low impact exercise on changes in cognitive function in the elderly with risk factors for dementia at STW Ria Pembangunan Cibubur. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental method with a one group pre-test and post-test approach. A total of 12 people who have met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The measuring instrument used was MMSE. The intervention was carried out 2 times a week for 4 weeks. Results: From all research objects, the average result of cognitive function before intervention was 17.00 and after intervention was 19.67. Hypothesis testing shows there is an effect of Aerobic Low Impact Exercise on improving cognitive function. Conclusion: Aerobic Low Impact Exercise has an effect on improving cognitive function in elderly people with dementia risk at STW Ria Pembangunan Cibubur.

Abstract

Background: tailors tend to bow for a long time which results in excessive activation of the postural muscles in maintaining the position of the neck which causes weakness, decreased activity, and muscle imbalance which results in pain in the neck area. In overcoming these disorders, the intervention that can be given is deep neck flexor exercise. Objective: to determine the effect of deep neck flexor exercise on non-specific neck pain in tailors. Methods: this study used an experimental one group pre and post test with control design which was carried out in May-July 2024 at PT. Iskandar Indah Printing Textile with 30 subjects. The subject collection technique was carried out randomly by drawing lottery numbers. Group I was given an intervention in the form of deep neck flexor exercise and group II was given education about ergonomic positions for tailors. The study was conducted for 6 weeks with 2 meetings each week. Pain measurements using QVAS were carried out at the beginning and end of the study. Results: based on the results of statistical tests before and after treatment, group I obtained a p value = 0.001 (p 0.05) which indicates that there is no difference in QVAS before and after treatment in the control group. The results of the hypothesis test after treatment in groups I and II obtained a p value = 0.001 (p<0.05) which indicates that there is a difference in influence. Conclusion: giving deep neck flexor exercise can reduce pain in tailors who suffer from non specific neck pain.

Abstract

Background: Sedentary behavior among college students leads to decreased physical activity, which negatively affects physical fitness, especially by reducing muscle flexibility. Self-Myofascial Release (SMFR) and Dynamic stretching (DS) are exercise interventions that have the potential to improve muscle flexibility. Objective : This study aimed to compare the acute effects of Self-Myofascial Release and Dynamic stretching on hamstring flexibility in students with hamstring tightness. Methods: This study employed a two-group pre-test and post-test design conducted in May at Poltekkes Surakarta. Participants were selected using simple random sampling and divided into two groups: SMFR (n=19) and DS (n=19). Each group received a single intervention. Hamstring flexibility was measured using the Active Knee Extension Test with a goniometer before and after treatment. Results : Statistical analysis using the dependent t-test showed significant improvement in both groups (Group I: p = 0.000; Group II: p = 0.000, p= Conclusion : Both Self-Myofascial Release and Dynamic stretching produce acute effects in improving hamstring flexibility. However, Dynamic stretching is more effective than Self-Myofascial Release in increasing hamstring flexibility among students with hamstring tightness.

Abstract

Alignment Knee joint alignment is a critical component in the biomechanical analysis of the body, particularly in locomotor activities such as running. Imbalance or malalignment in the knee joint can disrupt movement patterns and increase the risk of musculoskeletal injuries. In pediatric physiotherapy, early identification of lower limb posture is essential to support optimal gross motor development. This study aims to examine the relationship between knee joint alignment and running speed in children aged 4–6 years. A crosssectional design was used, involving 45 children who met the inclusion criteria. Measurement of knee alignment was performed using a goniometer to assess the quadriceps angle (Q-angle), and running speed was evaluated using a 20-meter sprint test. Statistical analysis with Spearman’s correlation revealed a significant relationship (p=0.012; r=0.373). These findings indicate that better knee joint alignment is associated with faster running speed in young children. This study underscores the importance of biomechanical evaluation in physiotherapy interventions for early childhood development.

Abstract

Anxiety is a common mental condition characterized by feelings of nervousness, fear, and restlessness that can interfere with daily life. Parents who have children with intellectual disabilities often experience anxiety due to various factors, including psychological pressure and high emotional burdens. The aim of this study was to analyze the level of anxiety among parents who have children with intellectual disabilities at SLBN 4 Jakarta and to identify the relationship between predisposing and precipitating factors and the level of anxiety. This research employed a quantitative descriptive approach with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 81 parents at SLBN 4 Jakarta. Data were collected using a researcher-developed questionnaire to assess predisposing and precipitating factors, and the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) to measure anxiety levels. The results showed that the majority of parents had mild anxiety levels (46.9%), while 40.7% did not experience anxiety. Spearman correlation analysis revealed no significant relationship between predisposing factors (r = 0.002; p = 0.988) or precipitating factors (r = 0.060; p = 0.593) and parental anxiety levels. However, there was a significant relationship between marital status and anxiety levels (p = 0.000). This study concludes that genetic and precipitating factors, such as medical conditions or exposure to certain substances, had little influence on parental anxiety in this context, although emotional vulnerability showed the highest average score. The implications of this study highlight the importance of social support and tailored interventions for parents.

Abstract

Background: In sport the muscle fiber composition surely affect athlete performances, selective training technic and using advance technology may improve and set a new standards for athlete optimal performances, technology innovation such as computer simulator has been use to generate realistic match simulation in several sport, but the technology is not cheap that many sport clubs can afford, so biofeedback may become innovation to improve athletes performance by monitoring muscle activation to achieve selective muscle contraction in muscle strengthening programs. Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate whether auditory feedback as biofeedback can improve muscle activation in a strengthening program. Method: Biofeedback with an auditory feedback electrode placed on the pectoralis muscle pars sternum of 25 subjects in the experimental Group, while they performed a strengthening program and 25 subjects only performed the strengthening program using biofeedback without auditory feedback as controls. The strengthening program was taken for 2 sessions a week for 4 weeks. Result: The collected data showed a mean difference value for the experimental Group was 34.1 ± 14.23 µV and for the control Group was 4.24 ± 12.61 µV, only the experimental Group had a signification value p<0.05. Conclusion: Biofeedback combined with a muscle-strengthening program results in greater muscle activation.
