Efficacy of Magnetic Field and Proprioception Training in Chronic Mechanical Neck Pain, World Biotechnology Congress, Boston, USA,

Neck pain is a public health problem that frequently restricts patient's activity with a major impact on the subject's stability and function. Proprioceptive afferences from the cervical spine, play an important role in postural control by providing information regarding head position and displacements relative to the trunk. Altered sensorimotor control of the cervical spine and sensorimotor integration problems affecting postural control have been observed in chronic neck pain patients.

Effect of core stability exercises on trunk muscles time to peak torque in healthy adults, 4th International Conference on Orthopedics & Rheumatology, Baltimore, Maryland, USA,

Background: Core stability training has recently attracted attention for optimizing performance and improving muscle recruitment and neuromuscular adaptation for healthy and unhealthy individuals. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of beginner’s core stability exercises on the trunk flexors’ and extensors’ time to peak torque. Methods: Thirty five healthy individuals randomly assigned into two groups; experimental (group I) and control (group II).

INVESTIGATION OF FRACTURE PATTERNS AFTER PURE COMPRESSION IN THE SPINAL THORACIC REGIONS. AN EXPERIMENTAL AND ANALYTICAL BIO-MECHANICAL STUDY, CMBBE2019: 16th International Symposium on Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering and the 4th Conference on Imaging and Visualization, NewYork, USA,

Background: It has been shown in previous studies that the spine, especially the thoracolumbar region, is vulnerable to high energy impact and trauma.[Waterloo et al.] A high frequency of abnormalities affecting the thoracolumbar spine has been found among athletes in sports with high back impact, lifting and any sport that demands great exertion force on the back. Compression wedge fracture is one example where these abnormalities are still being investigated.

Noninvasive Prediction of Compressive Strength and Fracture of Porcine Thoracolumbar Vertebrae: Finite Element Analysis, USA, APTA CSM, Virtual ,

Biomechanical evaluation of vertebral strength and failure patterns is essential to the clinical assessment of spinal injuries and in the prediction of osteoporotic fracture. Finite element (FE) models based on CT scans could be an alternative to BMD based measures since these models incorporate material heterogeneity and bone geometry and describe stress/strain state in the vertebral body. This study aimed to enhance the prediction capability of the CT-based FEM for the strength, stiffness, and failure pattern of the vertebrae under compression.
