abstract = {Objective: To evaluate the effect of low-load resistance training with blood flow restriction (LLRT-BFR) when compared to LLRT with sham-BFR in patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy (LET). Design: Randomized controlled trial Methods: Forty-six patients with LET were randomly assigned to a LLRT-BFR or a LLRT with sham-BFR treatment group. All patients received soft tissue massage, supervised exercises with BFR or sham-intervention (twice a week for six weeks), advice and a home exercise programme. The primary outcome measures were pain intensity, patient-rated tennis elbow evaluation (PRTEE) score, pain-free grip strength (PFGS) and global rating of change (GROC), measured at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks. Between-group differences were evaluated using mixed-effects models with participant-specific random effects for continuous data. GROC was analysed using logistic regression. Results: Statistically significant between-group differences were found in favor of LLRT-BFR compared to LLRT with sham-BFR in pain intensity at 12-weeks (-1.54, 95%CI:-2.89 to -0.18; p=0.026), PFGS ratio at 6-weeks (0.20, 95%CI:0.06 to 0.34; p=0.005) and PRTEE at 6- and 12-weeks (-11.92, 95%CI:-20.26 to -3.59; p=0.006 and -15.23, 95%CI:-23.57 to -6.9; p<0.001, respectively) follow-up. At 6- and 12-weeks, patients in the LLRT-BFR group had greater odds of reporting complete recovery or significant improvement (OR=6.0},
