Abstract:

Miscellaneous physical therapies, such as assistive devices, thermotherapy, manual therapy, and electrotherapy are commonly used to treat patients with osteoarthritis (OA) in addition to written information and exercise. However, the evidence underpinning specific miscellaneous physical therapies is often limited, with small study sizes, heterogeneous populations, and differing study designs making it difficult to draw firm conclusions about their effectiveness. One or more miscellaneous physical therapies feature within 15 current clinical guidelines for OA. The specific types of physical therapies addressed are variable, as are their recommendations. There is most agreement for miscellaneous physical therapies in hand OA, with multiple guidelines addressing and consistently recommending joint protection, splinting, and thermotherapy in addition to core treatment. However these recommendations are predominantly based on a small number of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Use of walking aids and footwear is commonly addressed and recommended for patients with hip and knee OA, although recommendations are predominantly based on expert opinion. Other physical therapies recommended for hip and knee OA range from orthoses to less conventional leech therapy. When a recommendation for a miscellaneous physical therapy is not made, it is commonly due to limited clinical evidence, rather than evidence of harm. Due to limited evidence and lack of consensus between clinical guidelines, for some therapies, use of specific miscellaneous physical therapies in clinical practice should be based upon the best available evidence, a holistic, individualized clinical assessment and shared decision-making with the patient. Further large-scale, high-quality RCTs would be useful to inform future guideline recommendations and clinical practice.

Abstract:

This intriguing book examines how material objects of the 20th century—ranging from articles of clothing to tools and weapons, communication devices, and toys and games—reflect dominant ideas and testify to the ways social change happens. Objects of everyday life tell stories about the ways everyday Americans lived. Some are private or personal things—such as Maidenform brassiere or a pair of patched blue jeans. Some are public by definition, such as the bus Rosa Parks boarded and refused to move back for a white passenger. Some material things or inventions reflect the ways public policy affected the lives of Americans, such as the Enovid birth control pill. An invention like the electric wheelchair benefited both the private and public spheres: it eased the lives of physically disabled individuals, and it played a role in assisting those with disabilities to campaign successfully for broader civil rights. Artifacts from Modern America demonstrates how dozens of the material objects, items, technologies, or inventions of the 20th century serve as a window into a period of history. After an introductory discussion of how to approach material culture—the world of things—to better understand the American past, essays describe objects from the previous century that made a wide-ranging or long-lasting impact. The chapters reflect the ways that communication devices, objects of religious life, household appliances, vehicles, and tools and weapons changed the lives of everyday Americans. Readers will learn how to use material culture in their own research through the book's detailed examples of how interpreting the historical, cultural, and social context of objects can provide a better understanding of the 20th-century experience.
