“…The lumbar erector spinae muscles are involved in the lateral exion movement of the trunk (13). LD muscle plays a role in both lateral exion and the extension of the trunk, inducing extension in the lumbar vertebrae (13,22). Our study shows that there exists a difference in the intergroup ROM for dominant side lateral exion, exion and extension.…”

Background Thoracic mobility is important to the lumbopelvic-hip complex during running. Objective To compare the Thoracolumbar (TL) mobility for runners and sedentary individuals. Design: Cross-sectional. Participants: The first group consisted of 35 runners (RTY, running for the last two years), the second group had 35 runners (RSM, running for the last 6 months) and 35 sedentary individuals. Outcomes Measures: Using the Myoton device, muscle tone (Hz), elasticity, and stiffness (N/m) measurements were made over the Latissimus Dorsi (LD) muscle. Trunk flexibility and flexibility of lumbar extensor muscles (cm), the trunk range of motion (ROM, ˚), TL Fascia Length Test and Modified Schober Test were used for thoracic mobility. Results The differences were significant on the nondominant side for tone values (p = .001); Modified Schober test (p = .001); lumbar extensor shortening test (p = .003) (cm); goniometric platform measurements both sides of trunk (p = .037, p = .005) (˚); the right side in lateral flexion (p = .010), flexion (p = .001) and extension (p = .001) (ROM ˚); the right (p = .018) and left sides (p = .001) in trunk lateral flexion (flexibility measurements). Conclusion We observed that trunk range of motion, lumbar mobility, and TLF flexibility could be influenced by contralateral movements during running.

“…For example, methodologies for defining personality type, hardiness levels, fascia densification, and body memory can contribute to approximate descriptions with indeterminate boundaries, such as those between one personality type category and another [ 145 ]. Moreover, fascia research is at an early stage [ 146 ]. Hence, it is as yet unclear exactly how fascia densification affects interoception, nociception, proprioception, and exteroception.…”

Psychomotor experience can be based on what people predict they will experience, rather than on sensory inputs. It has been argued that disconnects between human experience and sensory inputs can be addressed better through further development of predictive processing theory. In this paper, the scope of predictive processing theory is extended through three developments. First, by going beyond previous studies that have encompassed embodied cognition but have not addressed some fundamental aspects of psychomotor functioning. Second, by proposing a scientific basis for explaining predictive processing that spans objective neuroscience and subjective experience. Third, by providing an explanation of predictive processing that can be incorporated into the planning and operation of systems involving robots and other new technologies. This is necessary because such systems are becoming increasingly common and move us farther away from the hunter-gatherer lifestyles within which our psychomotor functioning evolved. For example, beliefs that workplace robots are threatening can generate anxiety, while wearing hardware, such as augmented reality headsets and exoskeletons, can impede the natural functioning of psychomotor systems. The primary contribution of the paper is the introduction of a new formulation of hierarchical predictive processing that is focused on psychomotor functioning.

“…An MSUS provides high-resolution images, allowing sequential evaluations of the individual's musculoskeletal system. 14 The fascia appears as hyperechoic lines on hypoechoic striated muscles. 15 Intratester and intertester reliability of the sonographers were pronounced to be good to excellent in one study (ICC of the first examiner = 0.92-0.96; ICC of the second examiner = 0.86-0.98) in measuring upper trapezius' thickness measurements.…”

[17][18][19] The software converts the fascia displacement into data points, enabling comparison between normal and limited mobility.…”

Background: Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS) is a persistent pain on the shoulders and cervical spine related to limitation of motion (LOM), muscle weakness, and loss of function. It is a cumulative, repetitive injury causing disability among the middle-aged working population. This study will determine the differences in upper trapezius' superficial and deep fascia displacements among participants with and without MPS based on the effects of cervical active range of motion (AROM). Methods: This is a retrospective records review study with two interlinked parts. In the reliability study, the Tracker will determine the physiotherapy interns' intertester and intratester reliability in assessing the musculoskeletal ultrasound videos. Using MedCalc Software and the Bland-Altman plot, the single measures ICC will determine the reliability. In determining clinically acceptable use of the Tracker, a <0.40 cut-off reliability will be used. In the case-control study, physiotherapy interns will assess 2,904 musculoskeletal ultrasound videos. The difference between the superficial and deep fascia displacements will be determined using paired t-test and the mean differences using an independent t-test. A significant difference between groups will be determined using a p-value of <0.05. Expected Results: This study expects that cervical AROM with overpressure will displace the superficial and deep fascia of the upper trapezius, particularly among patients with MPS. Proving the correlation between LOM and altered fascia displacement will help rehabilitation professionals create new manual therapy techniques and emphasize the use of existing fascia-related treatments.
