Position sense asymmetry

Joint position sense and vibration sense: anatomical organisation and assessment.

Clinical examination of joint position sense and vibration sense can provide important information concerning specific cutaneous sensory receptors, peripheral nerves, dorsal roots, and central nervous system pathways and should be included as a regular component of the neurological examination. Although these sensory modalities share a spinal cord and brainstem pathway, they arise in different ...

Position-dependent trunk asymmetry assessed with scoliometer

Materials and methods The study comprised 996 girls, aged 9 to 13, mean 11.0 ± 1.0 years of age. ATI measurements were performed at three levels of the spine: proximal thoracic, main thoracic and thoracolumbar/lumbar. Maximal ATI values for standing and sitting forward bending positions were noted. Based on the ‘7°’ criterion, the number of children who need follow up was revealed, according to...

Position sense in a damaged knee.

Hypothesis relevant to defective position sense in a damaged knee Sir: Detailed descriptions of personal clinical experience following a knee injury and subsequent surgical intervention' are of great interest in light of recent morphological findings related to the innervation of mammalian knee joints. The general controversy which has surrounded this subject for several decades can be attribut...
