Abstract
Whole-body cryotherapy with subsequent kinesiotherapy evokes positive anti-inflammatory effects in case of patients with locomotor system inflammatory disorders, however, the mechanism of this effect has not been satisfactorily explained so far. One of the essential laboratory indicators of the inflammatory process activity is distribution of serum protein fractions. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of whole-body cryotherapy on proteinogram parameters in the patients with ankylosing spondylitis.32 males with ankylosing spondylitis participated in the trial. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups of 16 persons who did not significantly differ with regard to age, duration and severity of the disease. Both groups underwent ten whole-body cryotherapy procedures with subsequent kinesitherapy or only 10 kinesitherapy procedures. On the first day before the beginning of the treatment cycle and on the first day after treatment completion blood samples were collected from the patients in order to determine the total protein concentrations and the share of particular serum protein fractions.On completion of the whole-body cryotherapy treatment cycle a statistically significant increase in alpha2-globulins share and a decrease in beta1-globulins share in serum proteinogram were observed in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.In patients with ankylosing spndylitis whole-body cryotherapy treatment corrects proteinograms in a different way than kinesitherapy does. The changes in the share of particular proteinogram fractions in patients subjected to cryotherapy are most probably related to the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects of cryogenic temperatures.

Abstract

Many physiotherapy methods are appropriate in spine osteoarthritis treatment, which proves, that there is not an ideal method for all patients. Another new methods in this area are evidences in search of ‚personal treatment’. It means personalized treatment. These methods, what is obvious, need to be verified. The aim of the study was to evaluate the utility of the acoustic wave and ion cyclotron resonance, and their combined use in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the lumbar spine.
Material and methods. The study group involved 80 patients, both men and women aged 35-75 years (average age 50.6 years) with osteoarthritis of the lumbar spine. Patients were randomly assigned to four treatment groups. K – group treated with simulated acoustic wave and kinesitherapy according to modified Mein’s exercises, FA – group treated with acoustic wave and kinesitherapy according to modified Mein’s exercises, JCR – group treated with ion cyclotron resonanse and kinesitherapy according to modified Mein’s exercises, FA +JRC – group treated with acoustic wave and ion cyclotron resonance. Before and after three weeks of therapy there was an assesment of: the mobility of the spine in the sagittal planein Schober test and the frontal plane in Moll and Wright test.
Results. Schober test showed a_similar level of mobility difference before and after treatment for a_ICR group 2.8_cm ±0.84 and thickness. ICR+AW + 2.83_cm ±1.1 at P <0.001. According to group K, 56% percentage changes of improvement gained ICR group, group AW+ICR gained 70% of improvement. In the Moll and Wright test mobility difference in the frontal plane before and after treatment in AW group is 1.15_cm in thickness. ICR 2.47_cm thick. AW+ICR 2.90_cm at p<0.001
Conclusions. Ion cyclotron resonance and acoustic wave with ion cyclotron resonance increase the range of motion for osteoarthritis of the lumbar spine.
