Effects on deep dry needling of the TIBIALIS posterior muscle on plantar pressure distribution: A single-blinded randomized controlled baropodometric trial
PLoS One. 2026 Sep 22;21(9):e0357010. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0357010. eCollection 2026. ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) in the tibialis posterior muscle (TP) can create a TP dysfunction, leading to alterations in plantar pressure distribution and foot loading patterns. These alterations can be objectively evaluated through baropodometric analysis. Our hypothesis was that the application of Deep dry […]
Comparative Efficacy and Safety of Needling-Based Therapies Versus Ablative Fractional Lasers for Scar Management: A Systematic Review and an Exploratory Meta-Analysis
Photodermatol Photoimmunol Photomed. 2026 Sep;42(5):e70121. doi: 10.1111/phpp.70121. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Needling-based therapies and ablative fractional lasers are widely used for scar management, but their efficacy and safety remain uncertain. In this systematic review, we aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of both needling-based therapy and ablative fractional laser therapy. METHODS: This review followed PRISMA 2020 […]
