Elucidation of The Effect of Flossing on Improving Joint Range of Motion. [PDF]
Flossing has been hypothesized to improve joint range of motion (flexibility), potentially through enhanced fascial gliding, although this mechanism remains speculative. This study aimed to clarify the effect of flossing, a new type of myofascial release, on joint range of motion by focusing on tissue gliding properties.

Concurrent Validity of Equine Joint Range of Motion Measurement: A Novel Digital Goniometer versus Universal Goniometer [PDF]
Goniometry is the measurement of joint angles with a conventional universal goniometer (UG) or a digital goniometer (DG). The UG is validated for use in dogs and cats. However, it demands both of the user’s hands when measuring.

Effect of Range-of Motion Exercise on Different Frequency of Joint Movable Range with Fixed Joint
〔目的〕本研究では,ラットを用いて関節固定期間中に「1日に1度,1度に5回のROM ex」を週あたりの実施日数を変えて行うことで,ROM ex実施頻度の違いが固定関節の関節可動範囲の減少,関節内組織の変性に与える影響を検討した。〔対象〕実験動物にはWistar系の雄ラット30匹を使用した。〔方法〕ラットは無作為に,(1)無処置群,(2)ROM exなし群,(3)ROM ex週1日群,(4)ROM ex週3日群,(5)ROM ex週5日群の5群に分け,各ROM ex実施条件にて関節可動範囲の経時的変化および実験終了後の組織像を評価した。〔結果〕ROM exの週あたりの実施頻度が多いほど,関節可動範囲の減少が抑制される傾向にあった。しかし ...

Hemophilia without prophylaxis: Assessment of joint range of motion and factor activity [PDF]
Background Recurrent joint bleeding in hemophilia results in arthropathy and functional impairment. The relationship of arthropathy development and factor activity (FA) has not been reported in patients with FA levels 10% less than controls; those ≥40 ...

From dorsomobility to dorsostability: A study of lumbosacral joint range of motion in artiodactyls
This study is the first analysis of mobility in the lumbosacral joint of even‐toed ungulates covering the full range of body masses and running forms. In this study, we modified a previously developed osteometry‐based method to calculate the available ...

Reliability of Measuring Leg Segments and Joint Angles Using Smartphones during Aquatic Exercise [PDF]
Objectives Aquatic therapy is a significant intervention method for both patients and healthy individuals. However, in clinical practice, quantitative measurements are rarely applied in aquatic therapy due to the disadvantages of submerging expensive ...
