A systematic review and meta-analysis on effect of different exercise training on grip strength and upper extremity muscle strength in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus Mamta Boora, Manoj Malik, Jaspreet Kaur Physiotherapy Research International, 2024 BackgroundIndividuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are prone to musculoskeletal complications, particularly in the upper extremities (UE), which can significantly impair their grip strength and UE muscle strength. This review will provide valuable insights for developing optimized exercise interventions aimed at enhancing upper limb functionality and improving patient outcomes.AimTo determine the effect of different exercise training on grip strength & UE muscle strength in patients suffering from T2DM.MethodologyA comprehensive search from electronic databases was performed based on the selection criteria and 13 randomized controlled trials (RCT's) were included in the study. Mean changes in grip strength and UE muscle strength were the primary outcome measures. Included studies ranked high on the PEDro rating scale and eta‐analysis was performed by Rev Man 5.4 software.ResultsMeta‐analysis results indicated that there was a statistically significant improvement in UE muscle strength of experimental group when compared to control group (mean differences [MD] = 2.91, 95% confidence interval = 0.12, 5.71; p = 0.04) with moderate heterogeneity (I2 = 49%, p < 0.07). Grip strength improved significantly in the experimental group when compared to the control group with (MD = 2.93, 95% CL = −0.00, 5.86; p = 0.05) and moderate heterogeneity (I2 = 66%, p < 0.08).ConclusionThis review indicated a positive role of supervised resistance & aerobic exercises on UE muscle strength in patients with T2DM. Due to lack of RCT's, grip strength needs to be explored by further investigations in these patients.
Effects of TDCS combined with Mat exercises on balance in patients with stroke P. Goel, M. Malik, C. Gera, J. Kaur Comparative Exercise Physiology, 2024 The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) along with Mat exercises in stroke. A single blinded RCT with ‘intention to treat’ analysis was conducted according to the ‘Consolidated standards of reporting trial (CONSORT)’ 2010 guidelines. Patients suffering from haemorrhagic/ischemic stroke with unilateral hemiplegia having balance problems and age group above the 40 years were included in this study. A total of 32 participants were randomly allocated into two groups: Group A (n = 16) and Group B (n = 16). The patients in Group A were treated with TDCS and Mat exercises whereas participants of Group B were given sham TDCS for 15 min and conventional balance training. The treatment was given alternatively, thrice a week, for 2 weeks. Entire procedure was completed within 45-60 min. Two outcome measures were used to assess the balance, i.e. functional reach test (FRT) and time up & go test (TUG). There were more males than females in both experimental groups. Results of baseline comparison reported that there was a statistically non-significant difference in the variables and the data were normally distributed. Results of the within group analysis found that there was statistically significant improvement in pre- and post-intervention scores of both groups. Results of between group analysis showed that there was a statistically significant improvement in the variables of Group A compared to Group B. This study concludes that the combined use of TDCS along with Mat exercises can improve the balance as compared to Sham TDCS along with conventional balance training.
Biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease: Early Diagnosis Deepak Panwar, Parul Sharma, Shweta Sharma, Manoj Malik, Jaspreet Kaur Deep Generative Models for Integrative Analysis of Alzheimer S Biomarkers, 2024 Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline and memory impairment. As the most common form of dementia, AD affects millions of individuals worldwide and poses significant challenges for diagnosis and management. Early and accurate detection of AD is critical for effective intervention and management, which has led to increasing interest in identifying and utilizing biomarkers. Biomarkers for AD include neuroimaging findings, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteins, and blood-based markers. Neuroimaging techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) are instrumental in visualizing structural and functional changes in the brain associated with AD. CSF biomarkers, including amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and tau proteins, provide valuable insights into the pathological processes underlying the disease. Recent advancements in blood-based biomarkers offer promising non-invasive alternatives for early detection.
Effectiveness of Pelvic Floor Strengthening Exercises in Females with Stress Urinary Incontinence - A Systematic Review Bharti Tanwar, Vandana Rani, Rekha Chaturvedi, Jaspreet Kaur, Manoj Malik, et al. Journal of Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences University, 2024 Background: Urinary incontinence (UI) is an unpleasant and socially constrained disorder that affects one in three women. Stress UI (SUI) is the most prevalent type of UI and is identified in 50% of affected women. The main objective of this systematic review was to evaluate the updated literature exploring the effectiveness of pelvic floor strengthening exercises and their dosimetry in women with SUI. Methods: Randomized controlled trials published between January 2013 and February 2023 and in English were included in this review. Case reports, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and studies published in languages other than English were excluded from the study. Databases such as PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) were used to locate the literature. The quality of the data included was evaluated using PEDro scoring, and the risk of bias in the included studies was evaluated using RoB 2, a modified Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Results: After screening, 12 studies were selected and included for qualitative analysis for the review. The findings of this review showed that pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) exercises are an effective intervention for treating symptoms of SUI and improving quality of life whether used in combination or isolation. It is also suggested that a minimum of 12 supervised sessions of PFMT with a frequency of three times a week is suggestive to be an effective intervention and can be seen as a first line of treatment of SUI. It can be concluded that the PFMT is an effective intervention to treat the symptoms of SUI in females. Registration and Protocol: The systematic review applied for registration in PROSPERO but declined the registration because of an excessive inflow of trials that needed to be registered in PROSPERO as it was not accepting trials other than COVID-19 trials.
