Trunk muscle activities during asymmetric twisting motions.
Axial twisting of the torso has been identified via epidemiologic studies as a significant risk factor for occupationally-related low back disorders. However, only recently have biomechanical studies been able to describe how twisting is accomplished through the use of the trunk musculature. These studies have been performed on subjects whose torso twists were performed in an upright posture. I...
متن کاملComparison of Positional Release Technique with and without strain-counter strain technique on the pain, neck range of motion in men with active trigger points in upper trapezius muscle
Aims and background: Trigger points are sensitive points in the skeletal muscle and neck muscles that cause referral pain, decrease the range of motion and muscle soreness. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the effect of the Positional Release Technique with and without strain-counter strain technique on the pain, neck range of motion in men with active trigger points in uppe...
متن کاملNeuromuscular Response to Cyclic Lumbar Twisting
OBJECTIVE To study the influence of 10 min of cyclic twisting motion on abdominal and back muscle activities. BACKGROUND Repetitive (cyclic) occupational activity was identified by many epidemiological reports to be a risk factor for the development of work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Biomechanical and physiological confirmation, however, is lacking. METHODS Trunk muscle electromyogr...
متن کاملUrsolic acid induces myoglobin expression and skeletal muscle remodeling in mice
Introduction: Ursolic Acid (UA) is a lipophilic triterpenoid compound, found in large amounts in apple peel. Anabolic effects of UA on the skeletal muscle and the role of this tissue as a key regulator of systematic aging aroused this question in mind whether UA might amend skeletal muscle performances such as myoglobin expression and also whether it switches skeletal muscle fibers from glyc...
متن کاملBOLD magnetic resonance imaging of skeletal muscle.
Blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) imaging was a concept introduced in 1990 for evaluating brain activation. The method relies on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast resulting from changes in the microvascular ratio of oxyhaemoglobin (oxyHb) to deoxyhaemoglobin (deoxyHb). OxyHb is diamagnetic, whereas deoxyHb is paramagnetic, which produces a local bulk magnetic susceptibility effect and...
