Spinal lordosis optimizes the requirements for a stable erect posture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Lordosis is the bending of the lumbar spine that gives the vertebral column of humans its characteristic ventrally convex curvature. Infants develop lordosis around the time when they acquire bipedal locomotion.

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Navigating Acceptability: A Think‐Aloud Study of Subjective and Contextual Factors in Radiographic Image Rejection

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study investigated how radiographers assess radiographic image quality using the think‐aloud technique. It reveals that image quality assessment is shaped by both technical standards and subjective, contextual factors, including patient condition and interprofessional dynamics. This highlights the importance of balancing standardised criteria with

Diagnosis of Spinal Column Abnormalities by Image processing of Reflective Markers Set on Spinus Process [PDF]

open access: yesSport Sciences and Health Research, 2010
The aim of the present study was to introduce a non-invasive method (image processing) to measure lumbar lordosis and thoracic kyphosis. The advantages of this method are fast measurement and no direct contact with the subjects. For this purpose, 40 male

The Musculoskeletal Consequences of Mouth Breathing in Adults: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Chronic mouth breathing can have a negative impact on posture, cause temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), reduced masticatory muscle activity and efficiency, and suprahyoid muscle overuse. Postural changes include a head forward posture and increased lumbar lordosis.

Relationship between lumbar lordosis and asymmetry of facet joints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background Facet joint is an important structure not only contributing to the stability of the lumbar motion segments but also causing low back pain. Hypothetically, the more lumbar lordosis decreases, the more corresponding facet joints orient axially ...

Embryotoxic Effects of Monosodium Methyl Arsenate (MSMA) on Gallus gallus: Morphological and Morphometric Evidence of Developmental Disruptions

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic activities and the large volume of compounds released into the environment are sources of contamination for plants, animals, and humans. The herbicide monosodium methyl arsenate (MSMA) ranks among the best‐selling agricultural pesticides in Brazil.
