13. Estudo eletromiografico dos musculos iliocostal lombar, semitendineo e biceps da coxa (cabeça longa) no vita-house
The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the subject position on Vita-house (equipment offitness) ofthe iliocostalis lumborum and hamstring signal EMG. The equipment called Vita-Jwuse has a hinge on the board, upon which the subject could either lie prone (plain table), or over which the subject could be draped, as the board hinged at its ce

14. Does 48 hours' bed rest influence the outcome of acute low back pain?
BACKGROUND. Bed rest is a traditional treatment for back pain, yet only in recent years has the therapeutic benefit of this been questioned. AIM. The aim of this pilot study was to ascertain whether or not 48 hours' bed rest had an effect on the outcome of acute low back pain. METHOD. The study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial to compare a pres

15. Radiological changes in men and women with ankylosing spondylitis.
The radiographic changes of ankylosing spondylitis were studied in 50 females and 82 males. There was a tendency for the males to have more severe arthritic changes in the sacroiliac joints than the females, but the difference did not reach statistical significance. Males significantly more often had radiological involvement of the lumbar spine. More restric

16. Supraspinous and interspinous ligaments in dog, cat and baboon.
The ligamentous attachments of the lumbar spinous processes were studied by dissection and histological examination in seven dogs, three cats and six baboons. Unlike man, the lumbar spines of these animals do not possess a supraspinous ligament and there is no decussation of the erector spinae tendons in the lower lumbar region. In the baboon the lumbar inte

17. The menisci of the lumbar zygapophysial joints.
In a study of 82 lumbar zygapophysial joints three types of intra-articular structures were identified. They were adipose tissue pads and fibro-adipose meniscoids, both located at the superior and inferior poles of the joint, and connective tissue rims, located along the dorsal and ventral margins. Every lumbar zygapophysial joint contained at least one of t

18. Moment arms of the muscles crossing the anatomical shoulder
The objective of the present study was to determine the instantaneous moment arms of 18 major muscle sub-regions crossing the glenohumeral joint during coronal-plane abduction and sagittal-plane flexion. Muscle moment-arm data for sub-regions of the shoulder musculature during humeral elevation are currently not available. The tendon-excursion method was use

19. Human lumbar apophyseal joint damage and intervertebral disc degeneration.
OBJECTIVES--To record the extent and location of lumbar apophyseal cartilage damage, and to ascertain if the extent of damage is correlated with the grade of disc degeneration, age, or both. METHODS--The extent and location of fibrillated areas of the apophyseal cartilage of the joint surfaces of 29 lumbar motion segments were examined using computer aided i

20. Hyperpathia in the central cervical cord syndrome
Seven patients are described with hyperextension or flexion injury to the cervical cord. They illustrate the symptoms and signs previously associated with damage to the centre of the cord, in that weakness is greater in the upper limbs than the lower. We do not believe that the relative sparing of the legs can be accounted for on the basis that corticospinal

21. A prospective study of laparoscopic spinal fusion. Technique and operative complications.
OBJECTIVE. The authors hypothesized that anterior transperitoneal laparoscopic interbody fusion was feasible and safe. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA. Low back pain associated with degenerative disc disease is optimally treated with distraction of the disc space and permanent fusion of the adjacent vertebral bodies. Exposure usually is obtained by a posterior muscl

22. IgA serum levels and disease activity in ankylosing spondylitis: a prospective study.
We investigated the possible association between serum IgA, IgM, and IgG and disease activity in a longitudinal study of 48 weeks' duration in 38 male patients with active ankylosing spondylitis receiving regular treatment with either phenylbutazone or diflunisal. Throughout the study serum IgA levels correlated most frequently with chest expansion and lumba
