Filter by:We aimed to divide the healthy individuals aged between 18-45 years, included in our study, into three groups as bilateral, unilateral-right and unilateral-left Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VSS). We planned to examine the effects of vagal nerve stimulation applied to each group with superficial EMG and EEG measurements before and after. Auricular vagus nerve stimulation has effects on cerebral activity. Therefore, this effect will be evaluated with EEG. In addition, whether there is a secondary peripheral effect will be examined by EMG method. Changes to be detected in EEG and EMG in healthy individuals may give an idea about the use of auricular vagus nerve stimulation in patients. In our study, healthy individuals between the ages of 18-45, who do not have any chronic diseases and who do not have to use any medication regularly will be included in all three groups. Due to the superficial EMG measurement method we used, those who have orthopedic problems in the upper extremity (shoulder, elbow, wrist and fingers) or have a history of surgical operation in the upper extremity, however, any systemic disease such as diabetes, gout, chronic kidney failure, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid diseases individuals will be excluded from the study in all three groups.
Evaluation of the efficacy of the occlusal appliance with active cannabidiol (CBD) molecules in TMD patients
A cross-sectional descriptive study, in which the surface electromyographic activity of five shoulder muscles was compared in two populations: older adults and adults. The evaluation of the electromyographic data offers a suitable foundation to understand aging process. This supports that surface electromyography provide information about the aged shoulder muscles. Loss of functionality is suffered by a high percentage of older adults, which greatly limits their physical activity. In this sense, this paper presents findings that might be related with possible therapeutic approaches in subsequent studies.
Disc herniation is a common cause of low back pain and leg pain. Electromyography is the only test that can objectively examine nerve damage caused by a lumbar disc herniation. This study aimed to compare the MRI findings of disc herniation and the aspects of electromyography.
Purpose: Assessing nociception and sedation in mechanically ventilated patients in the ICU is challenging, with few reliable methods available for continuous monitoring. Measurable cardiovascular and neurophysiological variables, such as blood pressure, heart rate, frontal EEG, and frontal EMG, might provide a medium for sedation and nociception monitoring. The hypothesis of this explorative study is that the aforementioned variables correlate with the level of sedation, as described by the Richmond Agitation-Sedation score (RASS). Methods: Thirty adult postoperative ICU patients on mechanical ventilation and receiving intravenous sedation, excluding patients with primary neurological disorders, head injury, or need for continuous neuromuscular blockage. Continuous measurements of bispectral index (BIS), EMG power (EMG), EMG-derived Responsiveness Index (RI), averaged blood pressure variability (ARV), and Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) were tested against repeated RASS measurements, and separately against responsiveness to painful stimuli at varying RASS levels.
The objective of this study is to assess the impact of different positions of the glenohumeral joint on the maximum muscle contraction of different shoulder muscles. The muscles do not contract with the same intensity depending on the position of the arm in relation to the trunk. With the determination of this optimal position to activate the shoulder muscles as much as possible, we will be able to strengthen the patients during their revalidation.
Evaluation of myorelaxant effect of cannabis cream.compared to placebo cream in topical skin application in patients with TMD
To investigate the effect of whole body vibration on upper limb motor function in hemiplegic patients with subacute stroke
The aim of this study was to verify if sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) suplementation promotes changes in the performance, muscular activity and strength of individuals trained during the intermittent and intense task . Twelve trained adult men will participate in this randomized, double-blind, crossover clinical trial. Each participant should receive two types of intervention with a 14-day interval between conditions: alkalosis (ALK) in which gelatinous capsules containing 0.3 g.kg -1 of NaHCO 3 and placebo (PLA) are administered, in which 0.3 g.kg-1 of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3). The following results will be considered: electromyographic activity (EMG) of the quadriceps muscle, peak torque, pH, lactate, and perception of effort, recovery and pain questionnaires, which will be collected during intermittent and high intensity DI protocol. ANOVA of repeated measures will be used to verify possible differences between groups.
The main objective of this research is to demonstrate that the use of insoles of different hardness in motorcycle riders may cause variations in the electromyographic activity of the lower limb muscles during the race. This study is a cross-over quasi-experimental study. Nine motorcycle riders were recruited. Electromyographic activity of the lower limb muscles is recorded under different insole types.
