This study tested whether low-level light therapy (LLLT) plus non-steroidal immunosuppressant eye drops can help people with dry eye disease. 160 participants received three weekly light sessions along with either cyclosporine or tacrolimus drops. The goal was to see if the combi…

This study tested a special nerve-stretching technique (neural mobilization) against standard physical therapy in 40 children aged 5-18 with cerebral palsy and leg spasticity. The goal was to see if it improves joint movement, motor function, and pain. The results may help guide …

This study looked at whether a 4-week exercise program for a specific foot muscle (peroneus longus) could improve function in people whose first ray (a part of the foot) is stuck in an upward position. 70 adults with this condition were randomly assigned to either do the exercise…

This study tested two ways of using high-intensity laser therapy to relieve pain from plantar fasciitis, a common cause of heel pain. 24 adults with the condition received either a static (pointed) or scanning (sweeping) laser application. Researchers measured pain levels and fas…

This study tested whether using mild electrical stimulation during stretching (called electrical muscle elongation) works better than regular static stretching for people with tight leg muscles. 56 adults from the University of Seville took part. Researchers measured ankle flexib…

This study tested whether custom-made foot orthoses (shoe inserts) can reduce chronic low back pain in adults with pronated (flat) feet. 110 participants were randomly assigned to wear either custom orthoses or flat insoles for a period. Researchers measured pain levels and disab…

This study looked at whether custom-made foot orthoses (shoe inserts) can reduce disability and pain in 100 adults with chronic low back pain and pronated (flat) feet. Participants were treated with either handmade orthoses or splints. The goal was to see if correcting foot postu…

This study tested two artificial tear formulations in 40 healthy adults aged 18-35. One type contains lipids (mineral oil and hydroxypropyl guar) to mimic natural tears, while the other is a simpler non-lipid drop. Researchers measured changes in corneal aberrations (tiny imperfe…

This study looked at whether a positive parenting program helps parents of children under 18 improve their parenting skills and family life. About 1,429 caregivers in Spain took part, and researchers compared them to families not in the program. The goal was to see if any positiv…

This study looked at whether running causes the foot to roll inward (pronate) more than walking in healthy adults who are not professional athletes. Researchers measured foot posture using simple tests before, during, and after one hour of walking or running. The goal is to under…
