Only a few previous studies have investigated paraspinal musculature (i.e., multifidus (MF), psoas major (PSM), erector spinae (ES)) in longitudinal, population-based settings. This study aimed to evaluate changes in the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the paraspinal muscles between the ages of 20 and 30 years. The study population consisted of a sub-cohort from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1986 (n = 298; 156 men, 142 women). Baseline magnetic resonance imaging was performed at a mean age of 21.3 years and follow-up imaging at 30.6 years. The CSA measurements were performed by tracing the paraspinal muscle outlines individually (MF, ES, PM) and all combined (total muscle area (TMA)) at the L4 cranial endplate level. The longitudinal data analysis was performed using generalized estimating equations modelling. The CSA of MF and ES increased during the follow-up among both sexes (men: MF + 5.7%, p < 0.001; ES + 2.7%, p = 0.001; and women: MF + 10.5%, p < 0.001; ES 9.2%, p = 0.001). The CSA of PM decreased among men (PM −4.0%, p < 0.001) but not among women (PM + 0.5%, p = 0.553). TMA increased significantly only among women (men: +0.5%, p = 0.425; women: +6.5%, p < 0.001). The increases in ES and TMA were more distinct among women than men (p < 0.001). Our study demonstrated clear age- and sex-related changes in paraspinal muscle size in early adulthood.

Background Bell’s palsy significantly impacts facial function, aesthetics, and quality of life. Objective To compare the effects of the Kabat Technique (KT) and Mirror Book Therapy (MBT) on clinical and electrophysiological parameters in patients with Bell’s palsy. Methods This randomized controlled trial included 31 patients divided into two groups: KT (n = 16) and MBT (n = 15). Both groups received their respective interventions (6 days/week for 3 weeks) in addition to conventional physiotherapy. Sunnybrook Facial Grading Score and Nerve Conduction Test (amplitude and latency of frontalis, nasalis, and mentalis muscles) were assessed pre- and post-intervention. Results Statistical analysis (SPSS v20) revealed significant intragroup improvements in all outcome measures (p < 0.05). Intergroup comparison showed MBT had superior improvements in amplitude of frontalis and reduced latency of nasalis. Both groups demonstrated significant improvement in the Sunnybrook grade shift. Conclusion This study suggests that KT and MBT, combined with conventional physiotherapy, positively impact clinical and electrophysiological parameters in Bell's Palsy patients. MBT showed superior results in select Nerve Conduction Test parameters.
