Almir Vieira Dibai-Filho,Elaine Caldeira de Oliveira Guirro,Vânia Tie Koga Ferreira,Hugo Evangelista Brandino,Maíta Mara de Oliveira Lima Leite Vaz,Rinaldo Roberto de Jesus Guirro +5 more
TL;DR: The methods of infrared image analyses of myofascial trigger points in the upper trapezius muscle employed in the present study are suitable for clinical and research practices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of Skin Temperature after the Application of Compressive Forces on Tendon, Muscle and Myofascial Trigger Point.
Marina Figueiredo Magalhães,Almir Vieira Dibai-Filho,Elaine Caldeira de Oliveira Guirro,Carlos Eduardo Girasol,Alessandra Kelly de Oliveira,Fabiana Rodrigues Cancio Dias,Rinaldo Roberto de Jesus Guirro +6 more
TL;DR: In conclusion, infrared thermography can be used after assessment or diagnosis methods focused on the application of forces on tendons and muscles, provided the procedure is performed 15 minutes after contact with the skin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliability of Bidirectional and Variable-Opening Equipment for the Measurement of Pelvic Floor Muscle Strength
Fabiana Roberta Nunes,Carla Campos Martins,Elaine Caldeira de Oliveira Guirro,Rinaldo Roberto de Jesus Guirro +3 more
TL;DR: The objective of this study was to verify the reliability of bidirectional and variable‐opening equipment designed to measure anteroposterior and left‐right strength of pelvic floor muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensory and Motor Thresholds of Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation Are Influenced by Gender and Age
Rinaldo Roberto de Jesus Guirro,Elaine Caldeira de Oliveira Guirro,Natanael Teixeira Alves de Sousa +2 more
TL;DR: Age and gender interfere directly with ES, which indicates that electrical stimulation in elderly women should be carefully performed, as they have lower thresholds than elderly men when polarized currents are used, and there is a risk of skin lesion because of their high thresholds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction in handgrip strength and electromyographic activity in women with breast cancer.
Carla Silva Perez,Lais Mara Siqueira das Neves,Ana Luiza Vacari,Marisa de Cássia Registro Fonseca,Rinaldo Roberto de Jesus Guirro,Elaine Caldeira de Oliveira Guirro +5 more
TL;DR: Reduction in grip strength on the side affected by the surgery, that occurred when the surgery was performed on the non-dominant side, shows the need to consider the affected side by surgery and dominance.
