متن کاملAdvances in Paraspinal Thermographic Analysis
Basic theory and common practice in temperature-based chiropractic assessment procedures and instrumentation are reviewed. Segmental spinal thermoregulatory function is presented as a refining mechanism for hypothalamic core-temperature control. Spinal nerve-cell-body function is suggested as the primary mechanism responsible for the asymmetries and anomalies commonly observed in paraspinal and...
متن کاملSurface Electromyography in the Assessment of Changes in Paraspinal Muscle Activity Associated with Vertebral Subluxation:A Review
Electromyography is the technique of recording electrical potentials associated with muscular activity. Needle electrodes may be inserted in the muscle being monitored, or surface electrodes may be placed on the skin overlying the muscles being studied. Both techniques have been used for the examination of paraspinal and peripheral muscle function. However, surface EMG and needle EMG are not in...
متن کاملSegmental hyperhidrosis as a manifestation of spinal and paraspinal disease.
BACKGROUND Segmental hyperhidrosis is an uncommon finding which is usually associated with irritation or infiltration of pre-ganglionic sympathetic fibres or the sympathetic chain. METHODS We report two cases of segmental hyperhidrosis with striking clinical features. RESULTS In one case, a mesothelioma produced ipsilateral simultaneous underactivity and overactivity of sympathetic outflow ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Factors Contributing to Postoperative Spinal Instability after Lumbar Decompression for Spinal Stenosis
OBJECTIVE Decompressive laminectomy is one of the most commonly used surgical methods for the treatment of spinal stenosis. We retrospectively examined the risk factors that induce spinal instability, including slippage (spondylolisthesis) and/or segmental angulation after decompressive laminectomy on the lumbar spine. METHODS From January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2010, 94 consecutive patients und...
