Introduction: Lumbopelvic pain, prevalent in 60-70% of pregnant women, persists in approximately half up to 12 months postpartum, and 20% even 3 years after childbirth. Effective treatment for pregnancy-related lumbopelvic pain is challenging, prompting variable interventions from medications to physical therapies. European guidelines advocate an active approach, incorporating patient education and exercise prescription. This project innovatively employs pain neuroscience education for pregnant women with lumbopelvic pain, a strategy proven effective in musculoskeletal pain but unexplored in p

The prevalence of chronic low back pain (CLBP) among the Pakistani population is reported to be as high as 78% leading to different physiological and psychosocial alterations. This randomized controlled trial was specifically designed to compare the biofeedback surface electromyography (sEMG) effectiveness for chronic low back pain in the Pakistani population.This was a single-centered study conducted on 100 CLBP patients randomized equally into two groups namely; Group A (intervention group, n=50) and Group B (Control Group, n=50) to receive sEMG therapy and continued care, respectively. All

…higher levels of pain, kinesiophobia, disability and catastrophizing might demonstrate greater susceptibility to visual feedback manipulation. In this cross-sectional study, 50 patients with non-specific chronic LBP extended their lumbar spine until the onset of pain. This was done both without the use of VR and using the VR. The visual feedback regarding the amo

With this webinar series, the ALBA Disability & Accessibility Working Group aims to bring down the ivory tower of ableism among the brain research community, one extraordinary neuroscientist at a time. These webinars give a platform to scientists with disabilities across the globe and neuroscience disciplines, while reflecting on how to promote inclusive working environments and accessibility to research. For this 4th episode, Dr. Maria José Diógenes (iMM - ULisboa, PT) will talk about how her personal story changed her professional life: from the pharmacy to the laboratory bench and from agei
