The Role of Biomechanics in Repetitive Motion Strain and OMT

چکیده
Fundamental Factors in OMT The Role of Biomechanics in Repetitive Motion Strain and OMT Repetitive and forceful movements, awkward postures, and sustained forces often lead to repetitive motion strain (RMS), a common condition generally correlated to occupationrelated factors such as physical and psychological distress and monotonous work, but which is also correlated to non–work related factors, such as sports and other recreational activities.1 Symptoms may include back pain, tendonitis, headache, behavioral problems, and dental problems.2 These symptoms may lead to a variety of musculoskeletal disorders, peripheral nerve entrapment, and vascular syndromes affecting tendons, muscles, joints, blood vessels, as well as the back, neck, and upper limbs.1,3 In general, such disorders have, at their root, biomechanical strain–induced dysfunctions.

Aflatoxins are carcinogenic metabolites produced by several strains of Aspergillus flavus group in food and feed. Cluster genes in aflatoxin biosynthesis pathway contain structural, regular and unassigned genes , nor-1 , ver-1 , and omt-1 are structural genes that coding for key enzymes and aflR is a regulatory gene that plays a key role in the production of aflatoxin and is affecting on the s...
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 کاملStretch reflex and Hoffmann reflex responses to osteopathic manipulative treatment in subjects with Achilles tendinitis.
CONTEXT Irvin M. Korr, PhD, hypothesized that sensitivity of the monosynaptic stretch reflex (ie, deep tendon reflex) plays a major role in the restriction-of-motion characteristic of somatic dysfunction, and that restoration of range of motion through osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) could be achieved by resetting of the stretch receptor gain. OBJECTIVE To test Korr's hypothesis in t...
