Eleven patients, aged 4\u201313, with lower\u2010extremity joint involvement, diagnosed as functional class I\u2013III, completed a 6\u2010week program of aquatic exercise aimed at increasing lower\u2010extremity range of motion and strength. Despite the small sample size and short duration of the study program, significant improvement was noted in external and internal hip rotation, bilaterally (p &lt; 0.05). Improvement was noted in the median scores for most other parameters; however, these did not reach statistical significance. Aquatic exercises performed in a group setting can serve as an enjoyable and beneficial part of therapy for children with arthritis. Further investigation is recommended to determine fully the effects of aquatic therapeutic exercise on mobility and fitness in children with juvenile arthritis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/art.1790040207","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,2,14]],"date-time":"2007-02-14T23:51:12Z","timestamp":1171497072000},"page":"102-105","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":32,"title":["Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis aquatic exercise and lower\u2010extremity function"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Melanie C.","family":"Bacon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carol","family":"Nicholson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Helga","family":"Binder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patience H.","family":"White","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,11,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_2","first-page":"S150","article-title":"The effectiveness of an aquanastics program: a controlled study [abst]","volume":"28","author":"Vostrejs M","year":"1985","journal-title":"Arthritis Rheum"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_2","first-page":"S144","article-title":"Physical conditioning exercise (PCE) for arthritis patients [abst]","volume":"29","author":"Young AG","year":"1986","journal-title":"Arthritis Rheum"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_2","first-page":"S158","article-title":"Characteristics of gait deviations in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis [abst]","volume":"29","author":"Lechner D","year":"1986","journal-title":"Arthritis Rheum"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_2","volume-title":"Bruininks\u2014Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency: Examiner's Manual","author":"Bruininks RH","year":"1978"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_2","first-page":"326","article-title":"A functional assessment for juvenile rheumatoid arthritis","volume":"27","author":"MacBain KP","year":"1973","journal-title":"Am J Occup Ther"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0141-5425(83)90004-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_8_2","volume-title":"Measurement of Joint Motion: A Guide to Goniometry","author":"Norkin CC","year":"1985"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1949.02900430001001"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_10_2","volume-title":"Statistics in Medicine","author":"Colton T","year":"1974"}],"container-title":["Arthritis &amp; Rheumatism"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Fart.1790040207","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/art.1790040207","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,23]],"date-time":"2023-11-23T04:13:03Z","timestamp":1700712783000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/art.1790040207"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1991,6]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1991,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/art.1790040207"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/art.1790040207","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0004-3591","1529-0131"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0004-3591","type":"print"},{"value":"1529-0131","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1991,6]]}}}
