We prove a version of the quantum de Finetti theorem: permutation-invariant quantum states are well approximated as a probabilistic mixture of multifold product states. The approximation is measured by distinguishability under measurements that are implementable by fully-one-way local operations and classical communication (LOCC). Our result strengthens Brandão and Harrow's de Finetti theorem w...

background: knee osteoarthritis (oa) is the most common musculoskeletal disease among old individuals which affects ability for sitting on the chair, standing, walking and climbing stairs. our objective was to investigate the short and long-term effects of the most simple and the least expensive exercise protocols in combination to conventional conservative therapy for knee oa.   methods : it w...

background: strengthening exercises are not favored in the rehabilitation of patients after coronary artery bypass grafts (cabg) for concerns over potential adverse effects. however, patients often present with weakened skeletal muscles post cabg due to disuse. methods: we studied the effects of aerobic and strengthening exercises on the serum c-reactive protein (crp) levels and blood pressure ...

background: the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two types of rehabilitation techniques, including aerobic and strengthening exercises on patients with knee rheumatoid arthritis (ra). methods: 48 male patients with knee ra were randomly assigned into 3 groups, including aerobic exercises, strengthening exercise, and control. the two first groups completed their treatment ...

[Purpose] The purpose of the present study is to examine the effects of abductor hallucis and gluteus maximus strengthening exercises on pronated feet. [Subjects and Methods] The present study was conducted with 18 adults without no history of surgery on the foot or ankle. One group performed both gluteus maximus strengthening exercises and abductor hallucis strengthening exercises, while the o...

[Purpose] To report the effects of consecutive application of stretching, Schroth, and strengthening exercises in an adult with idiopathic scoliosis. [Subject] A 26-year-old woman with idiopathic scoliosis, Cobb's angle of 20.51°, and back pain. [Methods] The exercise program consisted of 3 sessions: 10 minutes of stretching exercises, 20 minutes of Schroth exercises, and 10 minutes of strength...

[Purpose] We investigated the effects of individual strengthening exercises for the stabilization muscles on the nutation torque of the sacroiliac joint in a sedentary worker with nonspecific sacroiliac joint pain. [Subject] A 36-year-old female complained of pain in the sacroiliac joints. [Methods] The subject performed individual strengthening exercises for the stabilization muscles for nutat...

[Purpose] This study compared the activation of anterior gluteus medius fibers during general exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises. [Subjects and Methods] The study enrolled 15 healthy adults. The participants performed general hip abductor strengthening exercises and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises; during both types of exercise, electromyograph...

OBJECTIVES To conduct a feasibility study to compare concentric and eccentric rotator cuff strengthening exercises for rotator cuff tendinopathy. METHODS A total of 11 patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy who were on the waiting list for arthroscopic subacromial decompression surgery were randomised to perform eccentric rotator cuff strengthening exercises, concentric strengthening exercis...

objectives: to check and compare the effectiveness of modified agility and perturbation training over conventional physical therapy in patients with knee osteoarthritis. methods: subjects were screened on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria and a total of 50 subjects were recruited for the study. they were randomly divided into group a and group b with n=25 each. results: group receiv...
