NCT ID: NCT06326177 Enrolling by invitation - Spine Injury Clinical Trials

Investigating Association Between Spine, Scapular, Shoulder and Core in Swimmers

Start date: March 15, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The aim of this observational study is to investigate relationship between cervical, thoracic, lumbar and thoracolumbar spine posture, spine movement, isometric and eccentric shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesis and core muscle endurance in healthy competitive young swimmers in comparison with healthy recreational swimmers. The main question is whether spine posture affects spine movement, shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesia and core endurance. Participants will asked to complete a warm up period, after that spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core endurance will be assessed by examiner. Researchers will compare competitive swimmer group and recreational swimmer group. Additionally correlation between spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core muscle endurance will be investigated in competitive swimmer group. Aim of the study is to determine whether posture have any effect upon these parameters.

NCT ID: NCT05748548 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Low Back Pain, Postural

Effects of Lumbal Lordosis and Thoracic Kyphosis Angles on Muscle Activations

Start date: March 22, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

When the thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis are within a normal range of angular values back pain is less likely to occur. Angular modifications in the physiological curvatures of this sagittal plane have been shown to indicate spinal disorders. For instance, increasing lumbar lordosis and thoracic kyphosis result in higher intradiscal pressure, tension in the spine's passive parts, and creep in the lumbar viscoelastic structures. One of the most important factors of human biomechanics, spinal curvatures provide optimal energy expenditure and movement capacity. Abnormal adaptations in thoracic and lumbar spine biomechanics can cause low back and back pain. Multiple spinal segments are covered by the lumbar erector spinae muscle (LES), which is regarded as a superficial back muscle. LES consists of two muscles, the longissimus thoracis and iliocostalis lumborum. To move the lumbar spine, the lumbar erector spinae muscle (LES) is recruited in a manner that depends on the applied force. It was suggested that patients used LES to compensate for laxity in passive ligamentous structures in an attempt to reduce excessive force on the lumbar spine. Excessive lumbopelvic movements and altered muscle activation patterns are common in patients with low back pain. Researchers have investigated the timing of each muscle's onset and the activity of the LES, and found that patients with low back pain had higher LES activation compared to healthy people. Exercises for strengthening the LES muscle have been performed trunk extension during prone position. Strenghening LES and thoracic extansors may lead to decrease or prevent painful spinal disorders, improve thoracic excessive kyphosis and other complications. Prone trunk extension exercises is used to clinically exercise approcah to activate weak and susceptible to fatigue LES muscle in patients with nonspecific low back pain. This exercise lead to not only strentghening but also lengthening and streching these muscles. To fully understand the effects and underliying the mechanism of this exercise, biomechanical changes in lumbopelvic movement patterns of individuals with kyphotic posture should be examined. Based on current evidence, it is not clear the mechanism that the prone trunk extension exercises is effective on different spinal alignment postures as excessive thoracic khyposis and compansation mechanism on lumbal lordosis. Thus findings from this research may guide clinicians to examine the effects of different prone trunk extension exercises on LES muscles activation. Mitani et al showed that different upper extremity postures effects the lumbal multifudis activations during standing. Brown et al indicated that sit-stand workstations do not change muscle activations of lumbar muscles. Muyor et al concluded that spinal aligment of cyclists affects core muscle activity during cyling. Wattananon et al demonstrated that clinicians should focus on muscle activation patterns rather than the amount of lumbopelvic motion during prone hip extension. Based on the current studies, and to optimally address the underlying mechanism that the main objective was to investigate and show the effects of lumbal lordosis and thoracic kyphosis angles on muscle activations during different low back exercises.

NCT ID: NCT05733377 Recruiting - Diagnostic Imaging Clinical Trials

Non-invasive Imaging Technique for the Study of Lordosis in Pregnant Women and Its Relationship to Birth Outcome

Start date: July 15, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study consists of collecting measurement data of the rachis in pregnant women and the subsequent outcome of her delivery. This will make it possible to validate a non-invasive imaging technique through software that can be used to study this anatomical curve proposing a new measurement method for the angle of lordosis. Finally, with the research data, the investigators will try to find a correlation between these variables (angle of lordosis and delivery outcome.

Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to examine the prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and the relationship between functional level, posture, muscle strength, pelvic floor muscle control, participation in activities of daily living, and quality of life that may be associated with these symptoms. Forty-five children with DMD between the ages of 5-18 (Age: 9.00±3.32 years, Weight: 31,10±12,59 kg, Height: 125,87±18,46 cm) and their families were included in the study. LUTS was assessed with Dysfunctional Voiding And Incontinence Scoring System, functional level with Brooke Upper Extremity Functional Classification and Vignos Scale, posture with the New York Posture Assessment Questionnaire, Baseline Bubble Inclinometer (10602, Fabrication Enterprises Inc. New York, USA) and Baseline Digital Inclinometer (12-1057, Fabrication Enterprises Inc, New York, USA), participation in activities of daily living was assessed with the Barthel Index and quality of life was assessed with the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 3.0 Neuromuscular Module. Also, using the Hoggan microFET2 (Hoggan Scientific, LLC, Salt Lake City UT, USA) device, hip flexors, quadriceps femoris muscles, shoulder flexors, elbow extensors, elbow flexors, trunk extensors and flexors were evaluated in terms of muscle strength. Evaluations were made once, and the associated factors were compared in the group with and without LUTS, and the relationship between the factors and the severity of LUTS was examined.
