Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of manual lymph drainage (MLD) on the activity of sympathetic nervous system, anxiety, pain and pressure pain threshold in subjects with psychological stress. Methods: Twenty-nine subjects with psychological stress were randomly assigned to experimental (MLD) and control (rest) groups. This study was performed as a controlled, randomized study using spectral analysis of electrocardiographic (ECG) activities, the State-Trait Anxiety…

The Effect of Manual Lymph Drainage on the Changes of Autonomic Nervous System and Pain in Stressed Hospital Office Employees
TLDR
There were significant differences between groups for the sympathetic nerve, parasympathetic nerve, and pain within manual lymphatic drainage groups(p<.05); therefore, manual lymphatics drainage is an effective intervention for reducing the stress and pain of stressed hospital office employees.

Effects of manual lymph drainage for abdomen on the brain activity of subjects with psychological stress
TLDR
The results suggest that the application of manual lymph drainage from the abdomen provides acute neural effects that increase relaxation in subjects with psychological stress.

TLDR
Findings indicate that, the Swedish massage applied to stressed office workers showed a significant difference in increase of PPT and decrease of STAI.
Lipoedema – a growing problem in Spain Lipödem – ein zunehmendes Problem in Spanien
TLDR
Lipoedema needs a multidisciplinary approach: early education about the nature of the disease and risk factors for progression, accurate information about self-care, psychosocial support, diet, physical activity, skin care, compression therapy, pain management and surgery in some cases.
Study on the Correlation Between the Imbalance of Muscle Strength and the Score of EMG-Biofeedback Game at Ankle Joint in Healthy Adults
TLDR
The EMG biofeedback game score had significant relationship with muscle imbalance at ankle joint, so it seems that the game score can be used for predicting the degree of muscle imbalance as a parameter.
Lymphology and translational medicine.
TLDR
The interaction between lymphology and translational medicine may play a relevant role to improve management of LYM on one side, and of chronic degenerative diseases on the other side.

TLDR
Normal threshold values were established in 50 volunteers, 24 men and 26 women, at nine different sites frequently affected by trigger points, including the trapezius, supraspinatus, infraspinatu, teres major, lumbar paraspinals, gluteus and pectoralis muscles.
Cancer pain intensity measurement: concurrent validity of three tools--finger dynamometer, pain intensity number scale, visual analogue scale.
TLDR
Findings support the concurrent validity of the VAS and the PINS but indicate that further research is necessary to establish the psychometric properties of the FD as a measure of pain intensity in chronic pain models, such as cancer pain.

TLDR
Depressed mood is related to the magnitude of decrease in parasympathetic cardiac control during stressors in healthy men and women at rest and during two stressors.
