Exercise therapy vs a control strategy (no treatment, placebo or waiting list controls)

Patient‐reported pain intensity or pain relief (VAS, NRS or categorical scale) · patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (symptoms > 3 weeks (1 study); symptoms > 1 month (3 studies); symptoms > 2 months (2 studies);…

It is very uncertain whether exercise therapy changes usual pain (long‐term) VAS (0 to 10; higher scores mean worse pain) compared with a control strategy (no treatment, placebo or waiting list controls) (very low certainty).

Summary of findings: whole‐body cryotherapy (WBC) vs control (no WBC or passive rest)

Muscle pain at rest · physically‐active adults partaking in exercise designed to produce delayed onset muscle soreness (most trial participants were male)

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings: whole‐body cryotherapy (WBC) changes muscle soreness: pain at rest (VAS) compared with control (no WBC or passive rest) (very low certainty).
