[Purpose] This study compared the efficacy of passive and active stretching techniques on hamstring flexibility. [Subjects] Fifty-four healthy young subjects were randomly assigned to one three groups (2 treatment 1 control group). [Methods] Subjects in group had their knees extended by an examiner while lying supine 90° hip flexion. In same position, knees. The performed 3 sets stretch, with each stretch held for 10 seconds at point where tightness muscles was felt. did not perform...
A retrospective cohort study.The aim of this study was to assess the effects lumbar stiffness after fusion surgery on functional limitations, health-related quality life, and activities daily living (ADL).Postoperative outcomes are usually assessed using patient-reported instruments describe disability related pain health status. There few studies ADL surgery.This included 93 patients who underwent for degenerative disease. Their mean age 69 years (range 51-79), follow-up 34 months (24-46)....
Study Design: A retrospective multicenter case series was conducted.Purpose: This study aimed to investigate survival and prognostic factors after surgery for a metastatic spinal tumor.Overview of Literature: Prognostic metastasis remain controversial.Methods: conducted. The participants included 345 patients who underwent metastases from 2010 2020 at nine referral spine centers in Japan. Data each patient were extracted medical records. To identify the predicting prognosis surgery,...
The purpose of this study was to investigate gouty arthritis in Japanese patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).Questionnaires plus patient interviews and reviews medical records were used 493 ESRD receiving maintenance dialysis.The frequency 4.1% for female 15.4% male greater than 2 years before the start dialysis, 0.6% 7.7% less dialysis. After dialysis 3.4% first 1.2% thereafter patients, but no appeared patients. Although annual number attacks 2.0+/-4.2 1.9+/-6.6 decreased...
[Purpose] It is difficult for amputees to perform conventional cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Values were determined two-legged, one-legged, and two-armed testing in healthy adult males (Study 1), comparison with preliminary measurements of endurance amputee football players 2). [Participants Methods] In Study 1, was performed males. Correlations between oxygen uptake two-legged one-legged/two-armed calculated a made one-legged each measured value. 2, on male using two-arm-driven...
Strengthening exercise combined with blood flow restriction potentially increases muscle strength. This type of does not require heavy weight liftings and is a feasible method to be performed by persons suffering illnesses. However, strengthening may induce inflammatory responses due vascular endothelial damage. study aimed investigate alterations high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) fibrinogen levels in healthy subjects after five weeks low intensity resistance training (LIRT) (BFR)...
AbstractThe aim of the present study was to clarify effect electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) on spatial distribution pattern electromyographic activity in healthy young adults using multi-channel surface electromyography (SEMG). A total 32 men (age = 21-26 years) were randomly assigned intervention group (n 18) and control 14). Participants performed EMS stimulate bilateral lower limb for four weeks (20 min/3 days/week). The received no intervention. To understand effects EMS, following...
The path to the diagnosis of strokes is straightforward and unquestionable in most cases. In era interventional stroke therapies, which have potential adverse effects, an accurate needed for. However, there are non-cerebrovascular diseases exhibiting neurological symptoms that simulate (stroke mimics), atypical or uncommon suggest other than chameleons). This article presents two cases outline mimics chameleons. Detailed history taking, comprehensive examination, appropriate imaging studies...
Knee joint kinematics and kinetics during running recover at 12 months, not 6 following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery. muscle strength is a criterion used to assess an individual's readiness return-to-sports (RTS); however, the relationship between knee biomechanics unclear. This study investigated dynamic months after ACL surgery.Knee were analyzed in 21 patients (10 males, 11 females) who underwent for unilateral deficiency. Kinematics Kinetics measured by...
Study Design. A multicenter retrospective analysis Objective. To investigate reoperation of misplaced pedicle screws (MPSs) after posterior spinal fusion (PSF), focusing on neurological complications. Summary Background Data. The management strategy for MPSs and the clinical results are poorly defined. Methods. Subjects were 10,754 patients (73,777 screws) who underwent PSF at 11 hospitals over 15 years. total number reoperations MPS patient data obtained from medical records each hospital....
[Purpose] The anti-gravity treadmill (Alter-G®) allows the load on lower limbs to be adjusted, which is considered useful for patients with limb osteoarthritis. aim of present study was examine effects aerobic exercise using an in osteoarthritis by a cardiopulmonary monitoring system. [Subjects and Methods] subjects were 20 These walked naturally 8 minutes then Alter-G at their fastest speed where pain alleviated. [Results] Subjective objective intensity did not differ significantly between...
