Abstract

Background: Active cervical spine rotation (ACROM Rot) shows cervical rotation and flexion rotation test (FRT); side-bending rotation test (SBRT) and upper cervical axial rotation test (C0-C2ART) are described to measure upper cervical rotation. The objectives of this study are (1) to describe the normal range of motion (ROM) of ACROM Rot, and the ROM in FRT, SBRT and C0-C2ART tests; (2) to explore the correlation among the four tests and (3) to investigate the influence of age and sex in their ROM.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out with healthy volunteers from 18 to 75 years of age. Tests were measured using a CROM device and a bubble inclinometer. Descriptive analysis was performed to establish normative data for the ROM tests. Correlation analysis was conducted to understand the relation between upper and global cervical rotation ROM and among the three upper cervical rotation tests. Linear regression models were developed to understand the influence of age and sex in the ROM of all tests.

Results: Normative values were obtained from 122 healthy volunteers (50% male), by sex and age strata. The degree of correlation ranged between 0.582 (p < 0.01) for FRT and ACROM Rot left and 0.217 (p < 0.05) for SBRT and C0-C2ART left. Linear regression models showed the influence of sex for ACROM Rot right (men -4.64° less than women), SBRT (men -4.1° less than women) left and C0-C2ART right and left (men -2.24° and -1.78° less than women). The age influenced rotation ROM with a decrease for every 10 years of -2.11° and -1.96° for ACROM Rot right and left, of -1.72° and -1.26° for FRT right and left and -0.58° and -0.41° for C0-C2ART right and left in the linear regression models. No association was found between age and SBRT (p = 0.63 for right SBRT and p = 0.49 for left SBRT).

Conclusion: Weak-to-moderate correlation was found between the upper cervical spine rotation tests and with the ACROM. Women had a larger ROM in ACROM Rot right, SBRT left and C0-C2ART. Decreases in ROM related with age were observed for ACROM Rot, FRT and C0-C2ART but not for SBRT.

年龄、性别与颈椎和上颈椎旋转试验之间的关系。健康志愿者描述性和相关性研究。
背景:主动颈椎旋转(ACROM Rot)显示颈椎旋转和屈曲旋转试验(FRT);描述了侧弯旋转试验(SBRT)和上颈椎轴向旋转试验(C0-C2ART)来测量上颈椎旋转。本研究的目的是:(1)描述ACROM Rot的正常活动范围(ROM),以及FRT, SBRT和C0-C2ART测试中的ROM;(2)探讨四项指标之间的相关性;(3)探讨年龄和性别对其rom的影响。方法:对18 ~ 75岁的健康志愿者进行横断面研究。测试使用CROM设备和气泡倾斜仪进行测量。进行描述性分析以建立ROM测试的规范性数据。通过相关分析了解上颈椎和全颈椎旋转ROM之间的关系以及三个上颈椎旋转测试之间的关系。建立了线性回归模型来了解年龄和性别对所有测试的ROM的影响。结果:122名健康志愿者(50%为男性)按性别和年龄层获得了正常值。相关程度为0.582(右侧SBRT p = 0.63,左侧SBRT p = 0.49)。结论:上颈椎旋转试验与ACROM之间存在弱至中度相关性。女性在ACROM Rot右侧、SBRT左侧和C0-C2ART中有较大的ROM。在ACROM Rot, FRT和C0-C2ART中观察到ROM与年龄相关,但在SBRT中没有。
