The efficacy of elastic therapeutic tape variations on measures of ankle function and performance

TL;DR: Results advocate the use of ETT for proprioceptive and functional tasks when applied to the ankles of healthy male soccer players, and a greater number of practical and significant differences were observed when RT only was applied.

TL;DR: The proportion of Asian people with a high risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease is substantial at BMIs lower than the existing WHO cut-off point for overweight (> or =25 kg/m2), but available data do not necessarily indicate a clear BMI cut-offs point for all Asians for overweight or obesity.

The clinical efficacy of kinesio tape for shoulder pain: a randomized, double-blinded, clinical trial.

TL;DR: KT may be of some assistance to clinicians in improving pain-free active ROM immediately after tape application for patients with shoulder pain, and Utilization of KT for decreasing pain intensity or disability for young patients with suspected shoulder tendonitis/impingement is not supported.
