This study examined the effectiveness of modified diaphragmatic training (MDT) on GERD questionnaire (GERDQ) score, diaphragmatic excursion, and maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) in adults with GERD after COVID-19. Methods: This single-blinded randomized control trial was conducted at Persahabatan Hospital from February to April 2023. The medical records of 364 patients with persistent gastrointestinal symptoms were evaluated; among these potential participants, 302 had symptoms before, and 62 after, COVID-19 infection. Fifty of these patients fulfilled the study inclusion and exclusion criteria and were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 25) or control (n = 25) groups. Four weeks of diaphragmatic training were followed by MDT or standard diaphragmatic training. A follow-up assessment was conducted 30 days after the beginning of the training. Results: The GERDQ score was significantly decreased in the pre-post-intervention group (10.44 ± 2.00 vs 1.84 ± 2.17) and the control group (8.64 ± 0.57 vs 3.32 ± 1.49), with p < 0.001. The intervention group showed significant improvements in the right diaphragmatic excursion (RDE) (44% vs 11.87%), left diaphragmatic excursion (LDE) (46.61% vs 13.62%), and MIP (75.26% vs 23.97%) compared with the control group. Conclusion: MDT in adults after COVID-19 with GERD enhanced diaphragmatic excursion and MIP and decreased symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux by 8.60 points of GERDQ. Respiratory symptoms and other side effects were comparable between the groups.

In addition, postmenopausal women also experience a decrease in esterogen levels, which stimulates osteoclastic activity and initiates a reduction in bone mineral density (BMD). The aims of the present study were to determine the relationship between LBP prevalence and erector spinae endurance, BMD reduction, and body mass index (BMI) respectively. This was a cross-sectional study, conducted on 213 postmenopausal women, selected by simple random sampling. Assessment of pain, expressed on a visual analog scale (VAS), was performed by interviews and measurement of erector spinae muscle endurance time using a modified Biering-Sorensen technique, while BMD was assessed by bone densitometry. The results of the study showed that the postmenopausal women had a mean age of 53.5 ± 3.6 years. The prevalence of LBP and osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women was 58.2% and 21.6%, respectively. A significant positive linear correlation was found between BMI and VAS (r=0.165; p=0.016). In addition, the t-test demonstrated a significant difference in mean VAS scores between good and poor erector spinae endurance (p=0.008). However, the chi-square test showed no significant relationship between reduced BMD and LBP (p>0.05). It is recommended that low back pain in postmenopausal women be managed by strengthening exercises of the erector spinae.

The deformity could be caused by postural adaptation to an imbalance of local trunk muscles or by another risk factors. There are two risk factors, that are obesity and physical activity, which have not been studied in Indonesia yet about their correlation with scoliosis The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between body mass index and physical activity with scoliosis in young adults. Method: Study design was cross sectional. The subjects were High School students in Depok, recruited by consecutive non-random sampling. The body mass index (BMI) was measured by body weight (Kg)/body height (m 2). The intensity of physical activity measured subjectively by International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ). Detection of postural scoliosis was by inspection and palpation and the deviation measured by scoliometer. The data were presence in univariate and bivariate, analyzed by the Pearsen Chisquare. Results: This study conducted in 165 subjects, the mean of age was 16-17 years old. There was no correlation between BMI and scoliosis (p=0,11). However the higher intensity of physical activity has correlated with the lower frequency of scoliosis (p=0.00). Conclusions: The lower intensity of physical activity increase the frequency of the postural scoliosis, in the other hand there was no correlation between BMI and scoliosis in young adults.

Some of the factors that indicate a person has risk for future NCDs are obesity and reduced measures of physical performance, such as appendicular muscle mass (ASM), hand grip strength (HGS), and gait speed (GS). Objectives: Study to analyze the risk of physical inactivity for obesity and physical performance in young adults. Method: The cross-sectional study included 419 young adults consisting of 206 (49.2%) men and 213 (50.8%) women. Physical activity (PA) values were determined using the International PA Questionnaire (IPAQ), with an inactive score <600 METs and an obesity standard ≥ 25 kg/m 2. The values of lower ASM, HGS, and GS were based on the 2019 AWGS criteria. Results: Physical inactivity rates were 327 (78%), 154 (47%) in men and 173 (53%) in women (p=0.125). Obesity rates were 162 (39%); however, in men, they were slightly higher than in women: 101 (62.3%) vs 61 (37.7%) (p<0.001). The low ASM rates were 104 (25%), i.e., in men were lower than in women; 34 (32.7%) vs 70 (67.3%) (p<0.001). The low HGS rates were 32 (8%), which was relatively similar between genders, 18 (56.3%) and 14 (43.8%) (p=0.464), and the low GS rates were 55 (13%), which was also similar between genders, 23 (42%) and 32 (58%) (p=0.25). Physically inactive was a risk factor for obesity in men (OR (95% CI)=1.2 (0.6-2)) and in women (OR (95% CI) = 1.5 (0.7-3)), for lower ASM (OR (95% CI) = 1.6 (0.9-3)), and for lower HGS (OR (95% CI) = 1.6 (0.6-4.2)). Physically inactive was not a risk factor for lower GS of OR (95% CI= 1 (0.6-2)). Conclusion: Most young adults were physically inactive, thus increasing the risk of obesity and decreasing muscle mass and muscle strength.

This results in increased osteoclastic activity, causing increased bone resorption and thus reduced bone mineral density (BMD). In addition to being influenced by osteoclastic activity, BMD of the lumbar vertebrae is also affected by the erector spinae muscle. The purpose of this study was to determine an association between postural scoliosis and erector spinae muscle endurance and its relation to BMD in postmenopausal women. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study conducted on postmenopausal women, who were selected by simple random sampling among residents of Mampang Prapatan subdistrict. The postural abnormality of scoliosis was determined by physical examnation, while erector spinae muscle endurance time was assessed using a modified Biering-Sorensen technique, and BMD was measured by bone mineral densitometry, to categorize into normal, osteopenia, and osteoporosis. RESULTS A total of 213 postmenopausal women with mean age of 53.52 ± 3.64 years participated in the study. The prevalence of scoliosis was 54.0%, and osteoporosis was 38.1%. The prevalence of osteoporosis was higher in women with scoliosis (48.7%) in comparison with those without scoliosis (31.6%) (p=0.411). In postmenopausal women with strong erector spinae muscle endurance the risk of of scoliosis was lower (0.76;95% Confidence Interval = 0.58-0.99) CONCLUSIONS In post menopausal women with postural scoliosis found a higher incidence of osteoporosis. High endurance of erector spinae muscle lowers the risk of scoliosis. Exercise to improve posture and increase endurance of erector spinae muscle need to be done to prevent decline of BMD.

If this condition is left untreated, urinary tract infection (UTI) is unavoidable, with potentially lethal consequences. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of clean intermittent self-catheterization (CIC) on urinary tract infection in subject with spinal cord injury. A randomized controlled design was conducted in subjects who lived at two dormitories were included in this study. They were randomized to clean intermittent self-catheterization or control group. All the subjects were followed for one months. Primary outcome measure was symptomatic urinary tract infection as diagnosed by, pyuria (leukocytes of 100,000 or more per high power field.). Twenty-six patients between 22 to 62 years with cervical spinal cord injuries and urine residue more than 50 cc were recruited. Of the 26 subjects, 18 (69.2%) developed urinary tract infection. The incidence rate of UTI in the CIC group was 5/13 (38.5%); significantly lower than the control group 11/13 (84.6%) (p=0.016). Clean intermittent self catheterization in patient with spinal cord injury decreased the risk of developing urinary tract infection.

Detection of postural scoliosis was by inspection and palpation and the deviation measured by scoliometer. The data were presence in univariate and bivariate, analyzed by the Pearsen Chisquare. Results: This study conducted in 165 subjects, the mean of age was 16-17 years old. There was no correlation between BMI and scoliosis (p=0,11). However the higher intensity of physical activity has correlated with the lower frequency of scoliosis (p=0.00). Conclusions: The lower intensity of physical activity increase the frequency of the postural scoliosis, in the other hand there was no correlation between BMI and scoliosis in young adults.

Some of the factors that indicate a person has risk for future NCDs are obesity and reduced measures of physical performance, such as appendicular muscle mass (ASM), hand grip strength (HGS), and gait speed (GS). Objectives: Study to analyze the risk of physical inactivity for obesity and physical performance in young adults. Method: The cross-sectional study included 419 young adults consisting of 206 (49.2%) men and 213 (50.8%) women. Physical activity (PA) values were determined using the International PA Questionnaire (IPAQ), with an inactive score <600 METs and an obesity standard ≥ 25 kg/m 2. The values of lower ASM, HGS, and GS were based on the 2019 AWGS criteria. Results: Physical inactivity rates were 327 (78%), 154 (47%) in men and 173 (53%) in women (p=0.125). Obesity rates were 162 (39%); however, in men, they were slightly higher than in women: 101 (62.3%) vs 61 (37.7%) (p<0.001). The low ASM rates were 104 (25%), i.e., in men were lower than in women; 34 (32.7%) vs 70 (67.3%) (p<0.001). The low HGS rates were 32 (8%), which was relatively similar between genders, 18 (56.3%) and 14 (43.8%) (p=0.464), and the low GS rates were 55 (13%), which was also similar between genders, 23 (42%) and 32 (58%) (p=0.25). Physically inactive was a risk factor for obesity in men (OR (95% CI)=1.2 (0.6-2)) and in women (OR (95% CI) = 1.5 (0.7-3)), for lower ASM (OR (95% CI) = 1.6 (0.9-3)), and for lower HGS (OR (95% CI) = 1.6 (0.6-4.2)). Physically inactive was not a risk factor for lower GS of OR (95% CI= 1 (0.6-2)). Conclusion: Most young adults were physically inactive, thus increasing the risk of obesity and decreasing muscle mass and muscle strength.

This results in increased osteoclastic activity, causing increased bone resorption and thus reduced bone mineral density (BMD). In addition to being influenced by osteoclastic activity, BMD of the lumbar vertebrae is also affected by the erector spinae muscle. The purpose of this study was to determine an association between postural scoliosis and erector spinae muscle endurance and its relation to BMD in postmenopausal women. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study conducted on postmenopausal women, who were selected by simple random sampling among residents of Mampang Prapatan subdistrict. The postural abnormality of scoliosis was determined by physical examnation, while erector spinae muscle endurance time was assessed using a modified Biering-Sorensen technique, and BMD was measured by bone mineral densitometry, to categorize into normal, osteopenia, and osteoporosis. RESULTS A total of 213 postmenopausal women with mean age of 53.52 ± 3.64 years participated in the study. The prevalence of scoliosis was 54.0%, and osteoporosis was 38.1%. The prevalence of osteoporosis was higher in women with scoliosis (48.7%) in comparison with those without scoliosis (31.6%) (p=0.411). In postmenopausal women with strong erector spinae muscle endurance the risk of of scoliosis was lower (0.76;95% Confidence Interval = 0.58-0.99) CONCLUSIONS In post menopausal women with postural scoliosis found a higher incidence of osteoporosis. High endurance of erector spinae muscle lowers the risk of scoliosis. Exercise to improve posture and increase endurance of erector spinae muscle need to be done to prevent decline of BMD.

If this condition is left untreated, urinary tract infection (UTI) is unavoidable, with potentially lethal consequences. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of clean intermittent self-catheterization (CIC) on urinary tract infection in subject with spinal cord injury. A randomized controlled design was conducted in subjects who lived at two dormitories were included in this study. They were randomized to clean intermittent self-catheterization or control group. All the subjects were followed for one months. Primary outcome measure was symptomatic urinary tract infection as diagnosed by, pyuria (leukocytes of 100,000 or more per high power field.). Twenty-six patients between 22 to 62 years with cervical spinal cord injuries and urine residue more than 50 cc were recruited. Of the 26 subjects, 18 (69.2%) developed urinary tract infection. The incidence rate of UTI in the CIC group was 5/13 (38.5%); significantly lower than the control group 11/13 (84.6%) (p=0.016). Clean intermittent self catheterization in patient with spinal cord injury decreased the risk of developing urinary tract infection.
