Don't Get Caught in the Wrong Journal Trap: Insights for Young Researchers

This paper focuses on the importance of publishing research in indexed journals and the challenges encountered because of predatory publishers. This emphasizes the significance of qualitative health research and the use of evidence-based research approaches. The process of selecting indexed journals for publication is discussed, highlighting the benefits of credibility and recognition. The prevalence and detrimental consequences of predatory journals have been addressed, emphasizing the need for awareness and caution. The situation of scientific publication around the world is examined, noting the high presence of predatory journals and their impact on researchers' reputation and academic progress. Recommendations are provided to identify and avoid predatory journals as well as the need for increased education and accountability in the research community

The Effect of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation on Core Strength: A Literature Review

Training to improve the stability of the core is a routine component of the injury prevention regimen in the musculoskeletal conditions. The strength of the core muscles is significantly impacted by obesity. Obesity is linked to several physiological changes that reduce flexibility and cardiovascular fitness and slow down a person’s activities. Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation (DNS) which is an approach for optimising the movement system is a rehabilitation approach founded on the original concept of developmental kinesiology. The DNS therapy method is based on a thorough analysis of the quality of stability and/or movement, to restore the integrated spinal stabilisation system through specialised functional exercises. All elements of the integrated spinal stabilisation system are co-activated in this, making it a holistic approach to treating any ailment. It’s been tried and tested for a variety of neurological and musculoskeletal problems. The approach of DNS has recently gained popularity. This method is mostly used to strengthen the core. The aim of the review is to find out effect of DNS on core strength in various neurological and musculoskeletal conditions. Further research is mandated in terms of interventional studies to prove its efficacy in various orthopaedic and neurological conditions

Recent Strategies for Cardiac Rehabilitation in Post-Myocardial Infarction Patients: A Narrative Review

Myocardial Infarction (MI) is a severe cardiac crisis that can result in significant morbidity and death. ST segment Elevated Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is irreparable myocardial damage caused by persistent ischaemia, and while the adage “time is muscle” remains true, rapid and prompt detection of MI continues to be a key concern. Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) is the most significant evidencebased intervention for secondary prevention following STEMI. However, only a small proportion of patients have access to a cardiovascular recovery programme. Recent research implies that exercise-based CR provides significant benefits to patients with cardiovascular disease, including a lower risk of MI, a likely slight decline in all causes of mortality, a massive reduction in all-cause hospitalisation, along with associated medical costs, and enhanced Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) upto a year of followup. Adapting rehabilitation programmes to existing abilities based on experience in the field of activity is becoming a major solution in the current CR training programme selection. The effectiveness of both centre-based and home-based therapy is proven. Telerehabilitation and home-based rehabilitation strategies have gained much importance during the Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Further research is needed to standardise the treatment quality for patients with home-based CR
