Patients With Becker Muscular Dystrophy Have Severe Paraspinal Muscle Involvement

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Introduction: Paraspinal muscles are important for gross motor functions. Impairment of these muscles can lead to poor postural control and ambulation difficulty.

A review of electromyography techniques of the cervical paraspinal muscles

open access: yesPM&R, 2023
AbstractElectrodiagnosis for cervical radiculopathy often involves exploration of the cervical paraspinal muscles. Accurate and reproducible results require a technique with specific anatomic localization, direction of insertion, extent of insertion, scoring system for insertion, and criteria for determining abnormality.

Convolutional neural networks for the automatic segmentation of lumbar paraspinal muscles in people with low back pain

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The size, shape, and composition of paraspinal muscles have been widely reported in disorders of the cervical and lumbar spine. Measures of size, shape, and composition have required time-consuming and rater-dependent manual segmentation techniques ...

Feasibility For Measuring Transverse Area Ratios And Asymmetry Of Lumbosacral Region Paraspinal Muscles In Working Dogs Using Computed Tomography

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2016
Objectives: Describe computed tomographic (CT) anatomy of canine lumbosacral paraspinal muscles, a method for measuring paraspinal muscle transverse area ratios and asymmetry using CT, and application of this method in a small sample of working dogs with

Polysegmental innervation of the medial paraspinal lumbar muscles [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Spine Journal, 2007
A retrospective analysis was performed in a nine month period of the electrophysiological data, imaging and clinical findings of patients with monoradicular disc herniation compressing either the L5 or the S1 nerve root. The primary purpose of the analysis was to determine the distribution of pathological spontaneous activity in the medial paraspinal ...

Use of two-point and six-point Dixon MRI for fat fraction analysis in the lumbar vertebral bodies and paraspinal muscles in healthy dogs: comparison with magnetic resonance spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionFatty degeneration of the vertebral bodies and paravertebral muscles is associated with the presence, severity, and prognosis of spinal disease such as intervertebral disc degeneration. Therefore, the fat fraction (FF) of the vertebral bodies

Paraspinal Muscle Response to Electrical Vestibular Stimulation

open access: yesActa Oto-Laryngologica, 2000
Galvanic (electrical) vestibular stimulation (GVS) has been used to study the role of the vestibular system in postural control by inducing postural sway in standing subjects. The purpose of this study was to determine the timing and pattern of activation in the paraspinal muscles in response to GVS and to compare these responses with those in the ...

Reflex control of ipsilateral and contralateral paraspinal muscles [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Brain Research, 2012
Homonymous and heteronymous reflex connections of the paraspinal muscles were investigated by the application of a tap to the muscle bellies of the lumbar multifidus and iliocostalis lumborum muscles and observation of surface electromyographic responses in the same muscles on both sides of the trunk.

Vertebral bone quality score was associated with paraspinal muscles fat infiltration, but not modic classification in patients with chronic low back pain: a prospective cross-sectional study [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background The lumbar vertebra and paraspinal muscles play an important role in maintaining the stability of the lumbar spine. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between paraspinal muscles fat infiltration and vertebral ...

The association between morphological characteristics of paraspinal muscle and spinal disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2023
Background Spinal disorders affect millions of people worldwide, and can cause significant disability and pain. The paraspinal muscles, located on either side of the spinal column, play a crucial role in the movement, support, and stabilization of the ...
