Diagnostic information value of EMG envelope algorithm for superficial paraspinal muscles in postural stereotypes of patients with scoliosis grades III and IV

open access: yesГений oртопедии, 2018
Asymmetry of paraspinal muscle tone is incorporated in pathogenesis for spinal deformities having diagnosis information value and it can be hypothesised to be involved in curve aggravation.

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 ...

CRISPLD2 Attenuates Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by Suppressing Oxidative Stress‐Induced Ferroptosis through the miR‐548I‐IL17A Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies CRISPLD2 as a key protector against IVDD. By regulating ferroptosis through the CRISPLD2–miR‐548I–IL17A axis, CRISPLD2 maintains NPCs homeostasis and reduces oxidative stress. Restoring CRISPLD2 expression effectively alleviates disc degeneration and highlights a promising therapeutic strategy for discogenic low back pain ...

Comparison of thoracic and lumbar erector spinae muscle activation before and after a golf practice session [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lower back pain is commonly associated with golfers. The study aimed: to determine whether thoracic- and lumbar-erector-spinae muscle display signs of muscular fatigue after completing a golf practice session, and to examine the effect of the completed ...

Gram‐Scale Synthesis of Hafnium‐Rich Carbon Dots for Preclinical Computed Tomography Imaging Across Various Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hafnium (Hf)‐rich carbon dots (Hf‐rCDs) with high metal content (40.7%) and robust batch production capacity (>2 g per batch) are synthesized via a facile air‐assisted pyrolysis method. In vivo CT imaging demonstrates outstanding performance of Hf‐rCDs across multiple physiological systems and enables high‐resolution visualization of swine cervical ...

A comparative imaging analysis of paraspinal muscles in healthy individuals and patients with chronic low back pain

open access: yesTranslational Research in Anatomy
Background: Chronic low back pain (CBP) is a heterogeneous disease that may be caused by intervertebral disc lesions, age-related degenerative lumbar vertebral bodies, nerve compressions at its exit points, age-related weakness of paraspinal muscles, or ...

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 ...

Structural changes of lumbar muscles in non-specific low back pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Lumbar muscle dysfunction due to pain might be related to altered lumbar muscle structure. Macroscopically, muscle degeneration in low back pain (LBP) is characterized by a decrease in cross-sectional area and an increase in fat infiltration ...
