Current evaluation could be of value for future studies as a reference. The purpose was to detect the impact of rounded back posture on the characteristics of the MUPs and fascicle length of the shoulder retractors in children.Methods: Participants in this study were 60 children (boys and girls), their ages were from 7 to 10 years old. Children were allocated into healthy children group (A) and rounded back posture group (B). MUPs and fascicle length of middle trapezius were assessed by electromyography and ultrasonography respectively.Results: When compared to the normal group, the rounded back group's right and left middle trapezius MUPs count and amplitude significantly increased. As regards to the middle trapezius MUPs duration between the two groups, there was no significant difference. Also, the rounded back posture group exhibited significantly lower fascicle length in middle trapezius of both sides than the normal group.Conclusion: Forward shoulder posture is accompanied by atypical middle trapezius MUPs characteristics and also lowered fascicle length. Thus, children with forward-leaning posture could increase the likelihood of developing any of the many shoulder disorders.","PeriodicalId":16430,"journal":{"name":"Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions","volume":"24 3","pages":"267-275"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11367171/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142108307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both groups underwent dynamic evaluation using artificial intelligence and computer vision before treatment. This evaluation focused on analyzing the range of motion of the shoulder and elbow during the gait cycle, as well as various gait parameters (such as step length, step speed, and percentage of stance phase) on the affected side. Following evaluation, the control group received routine rehabilitation treatment.Results: The results indicated that there was no significant difference between the two groups before treatment. However, following treatment, there was a notable improvement in the motion of the shoulder and elbow joints on the affected side among patients in the treatment group (p<0.05), whereas the control group showed only slight improvement, which was not statistically significant (p>0.05).Conclusion: The improvement in upper limb function on the affected side also appears to positively influence gait recovery.

Leiomyomas are more commonly found in the lower limbs than in the upper extremities, while schwannomas are rare peripheral nerve sheath tumours that can occur in different anatomical regions. However, they rarely occur in the saphenous nerve. This case study presents a 41-year-old female patient with a solitary mass lesion located deep in the soft tissue of the anteromedial lower extremity. The physical examination revealed a palpable, elastic-hard, mobile and non-tender mass. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an oval-shaped subcutaneous mass on contrast-enhanced T1-weighted sections. The initial MRI images suggested a schwannoma, but the tumour was later confirmed to be a leiomyoma after total enucleation. An immunohistochemical study was performed for differential diagnosis. Solitary mass lesions in the lower extremities can be mistaken for various types of tumours and misdiagnosed and require histopathological examination and good radiological imaging for differential diagnosis. Complete surgical excision is usually a safe and effective treatment for leiomyomas.","PeriodicalId":16430,"journal":{"name":"Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions","volume":"24 3","pages":"325-329"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11367172/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142108312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, neuropathic pain in Ankylosing Spondylitis(AS) and its relationship with disease activity were investigated.Methods: Forty patients with AS were included. Laboratory data and disease status parameters were recorded. Neuropathic pain questionnaires were administered. Electrophysiological examination was performed on all patients. The relationship between neuropathic pain and disease activity parameters was investigated.Results: According to the Pain Detect and LANSS questionnaire results, the rate of neuropathic pain was 57.5% and 42.5%. ASQoL, BASDAI, and ASDAS-ESH parameters are statistically significantly higher in the group with neuropathic pain according to the PainDetect (p:0.018, p:0.04, p:0.028). MASES, ASQoL, BASDAI, BASFI, and ASDAS-ESH parameters are statistically significantly higher in the group with neuropathic pain according to the LANSS (p:0.004, p:0.005, p: 0.001, p:0.005, p:0.02). Disease activity is higher in patients with neuropathic pain for both scales. Peripheral neuropathy is detected in nine patients. There is a positive correlation between disease activity parameters and neuropathic pain scales. A strong positive correlation was detected between ASQoL and BASDAI parameters and the Pain Detect questionnaire (r:0.533, r:0.606).Conclusions: The majority of patients with AS have a neuropathic pain. This condition is associated with high disease activity and adversely affects the patient's quality of life.","PeriodicalId":16430,"journal":{"name":"Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions","volume":"24 3","pages":"284-290"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11367180/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142108310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

BLD may be modulated by physical training. Here, were investigated the effects of unilateral or bilateral plyometric training on BLD and neuromuscular activation during lower limb explosive extensions.Methods: Fourteen young males were randomized into the unilateral (UL_) or bilateral (BL_) training group. Plyometric training (20 sessions, 2 days/week) was performed on a sled ergometer, and consisted of UL or BL consecutive, plyometric lower limb extensions (3-to-5 sets; 8-to-10 repetitions). Before and after training, maximal explosive efforts with both lower limbs or with each limb separately were assessed. Electromyography of representative lower limb muscles was measured.Results: BL_training significantly and largely decreased BLD (p=0.003, effect size=1.63). This was accompanied by the reversion from deficit to facilitation of the electromyography amplitude of knee extensors during bilateral efforts (p=0.007). Conversely, UL_training had negligible effects on BLD (p=0.781). Also, both groups showed similar improvements in their maximal explosive power generated after training.Conclusions: Bilateral plyometric training can mitigate BLD, and should be considered for training protocols focused on improving bilateral lower limb motor performance.","PeriodicalId":16430,"journal":{"name":"Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions","volume":"24 2","pages":"200-208"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11145313/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141199950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
