Primary hydatid cyst of neck muscles

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2002
Primary hydatid disease of muscle is very rare. This was encountered in the muscles of posterior triangle of the neck in a 12-year-old boy. Hydatid Cyst of neck was excised and was followed by albendazole for six weeks. Rarity of this disease in muscles warrants the need for this case report.

Neck and Inspiratory Muscle Recruitment during Inspiratory Loading and Neck Flexion

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose This study aimed to compare muscle activation of the diaphragm (DIA), scalenes (SA), parasternal intercostals (PS), and sternomastoid (SM) during submaximal intermittent neck flexion (INF) versus submaximal inspiratory threshold loading (ITL) until task failure in healthy adults.

Neck muscle fatigue alters upper limb proprioception

Experimental Brain Research, 2015
Limb proprioception is an awareness by the central nervous system (CNS) of the location of a limb in three-dimensional space and is essential for movement and postural control. The CNS uses the position of the head and neck when interpreting the position of the upper limb, and altered input from neck muscles may affect the sensory inputs to the CNS and

Neck muscle vibration disrupts steering of locomotion

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2001
Neck muscle vibration was applied to human subjects to assess the influences of neck abnormal proprioceptive input on the organization and execution of gait. Subjects walked blindfolded to a previously seen target, located straight ahead at ∼4 m. Vibration was applied on the right side of the neck, both during and before walking.

“Cephalgic” spasm of head and neck muscles

Pain, 1976
SYNOPSIS Electromyographic examinations of neck and temporal muscles were performed in 132 patients with various types of headaches and in 51 controls. No muscle action potentials were found provided control subjects were voluntarily relaxed.

Noninvasive Analysis of Human Neck Muscle Function

Spine, 1995
Muscle use evoked by exercise was determined by quantifying shifts in signal relaxation times of T2-weighted magnetic resonance images. Images were collected at rest and after exercise at each of two intensities (moderate and intense) for each of four head movements: 1) extension, 2) flexion, 3) rotation, and 4) lateral flexion.This study examined the ...

Relationship Between Headaches and Neck Pain Characteristics With Neck Muscle Strength

Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2018
The purpose of this study was to assess the correlations between neck muscle strength and pain features, such as neck-related disability, neck pain frequency and intensity, and headache frequency in women with headache.Seventy women with migraine between 18 and 55 years of age diagnosed according to International Headache Society criteria were assessed.

Neck muscle function in violinists/violists with and without neck pain

Clinical Rheumatology, 2015
Neck pain is associated with changes in neuromuscular control of cervical muscles. Violin and viola playing requires good function of the flexor muscles to stabilize the instrument. This study investigated the flexor muscle behaviour in violin/viola players with and without neck pain using the craniocervical flexion test (CCFT).
