Effectiveness of Physiotherapy in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Luca Pontone Gravaldi et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions supervised by a physiotherapist in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis. The meta-analysis results showed that supervised physiotherapy was associated with significant improvements in disease activity and functional capacity compared to usual care, but no significant differences were found when compared to home-based exercise programmes. Further investigation and larger-scale RCTs are needed to confirm these findings.

Neopterin derivatives - a novel therapeutic target rather than biomarker for atherosclerosis and related diseases

Takuya Watanabe

Summary: Neopterin and its derivatives play a protective role in atherosclerosis by suppressing inflammation, reducing plaque formation, and improving endothelial function. They serve as potential therapeutic targets for atherosclerosis and related diseases.

Serial whole-body cryotherapy in fibromyalgia is effective and alters cytokine profiles

Philipp Klemm et al.

Summary: The study found that serial WBC has a fast and effective therapeutic effect on FM patients, significantly reducing pain and disease activity. However, there were no significant clinical benefits observed 3 months after treatment discontinuation. Overall, subjects were satisfied with WBC and considered it important and effective.

Association between vascular endothelial dysfunction and the inflammatory marker neopterin in patients with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia

Hekma Saad Farghaly et al.

Summary: The study found that patients with CAH have endothelial dysfunction, significantly associated with NP levels, suggesting a crucial role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of vascular damage. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and explore the specific role of NP, whether protective or proatherothrombotic.

Whole-Body Cryotherapy Increases the Activity of Nitric Oxide Synthase in Older Men

Magdalena Wiecek et al.

Summary: The study found that repeated whole-body exposure to cryogenic temperature can increase the concentration of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in senior subjects, which is more pronounced in athletes. However, the whole-body cryotherapy did not have a significant effect on the concentration of other markers.

Blood pro-oxidant/antioxidant balance in young men with class II obesity after 20 sessions of whole body cryostimulation: a preliminary study

Wanda Pilch et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated the beneficial impact of WBC treatments on the pro-oxidative-antioxidant balance in obese individuals, resulting in a decrease in TOS/TOC levels but no change in TAS/TAC levels. Additionally, an increase in CAT activity was observed in the obese group. Therefore, a higher number of treatments may be needed for patients with class II obesity.
