“…1). In total, 26 markers were placed directly on the skin of each participant above the anatomical reference points using a modified version of the Davis biomechanical model (Davis III et al, 1991;Alsultan et al, 2019) (see Fig. 2).…”

“…Many people with neck pain do not experience full resolution of their pain and continue to experience pain across their life time (Chiu, Lam and Hedley, 2005;Côté et al, 2004;Cote et al, 2009). Several studies have demonstrated that people with chronic neck pain (CNP) display altered kinematics when performing functional tasks, including gait (Poole, Treleaven and Jull, 2008;Falla et al, 2017a;Alsultan et al, 2019), and these disturbances are thought to play a role in the maintenance or perpetuation of symptoms.…”

“…Evidence demonstrates that people with CNP experience gait disturbances including during curvilinear walking (Lindstrøm et al, 2011;Falla, Jull and Hodges, 2004;Falla et al, 2010;Treleaven, 2008;Alsultan et al, 2019). Therefore, we aimed to develop a novel protocol and data processing pipeline that analyses the kinematic features of individuals with and without non-specific CNP when they perform curvilinear and rectilinear trajectories.…”

“…Although our study was not intended to investigate the specific reasons for the differences, previous studies reported that the NP group could display biomechanical disturbances even with relatively mild pain and demonstrate reduced trunk rotation during gait, which indicates an increased stiffer spine [33,34]. Previous studies were limited to clinical applications for gait dysfunction, since the distribution of the motions may provide a limited interpretation [32,35].…”

Falls in older adults can cause disabling health even though falls are largely preventable. A combination of fall risk factors can be modified or predicted to minimize devastating complications. However, clinical balance assessment tools often have contradictory results since fall risks are individualized and multifactorial. The assessment tools are often practically limited to detecting sensitive changes between older adults with and without balance deficits. Recently, a similarity index (SI) has been developed to predict fall risks based on kinematic data during gait. The combined limb motions to those of a prototype derived from healthy individuals in the gait cycle might be differentiated from individuals with gait pathologies. The analyzed calculations result in response vectors that would be compared to controls-derived prototype response vectors. Furthermore, the normalized SI, based on the vector representing the data distribution, could be generated from the enhanced (dis)similarities dataset of subjects following an intervention (prototype response vectors). These quantified indices for compensatory patterns provide a further understanding of optimal injury prevention and specific rehabilitation strategies for older adults with balance deficits. This chapter will propose a novel sensitive measure, the SI, for older adults with orthopedic and neurologic dysfunction compared with control subjects.

“…One of the most prevalent causes of musculoskeletal pain in the general population is cervicalgia, often known as neck pain, which contributes to one of the major health issues in western culture. It should be noted that up to 50% of these cases could become chronic and that their incidence is estimated to be between 16.7% and 71.5 % percent [2]. Neck pain is frequently caused by awkward work postures, tension, anxiety, heavy lifting, and physically demanding employment [1].…”

Background: One of the most frequent causes of musculoskeletal pain in the general population is cervicalgia, sometimes known as neck pain. Its estimated prevalence ranges from 16.7% to 71.5 percent, and it should be noted that up to 50% of these cases may develop into chronic conditions. In this study, patients with persistent mechanical neck pain were examined to determine the effectiveness of trunk core training exercises on pain, range of motion, functional impairment, and muscle activity. Purpose: The goal of the study was to determine the impact of adding core training to patients' existing conventional treatments for chronic mechanical neck pain. Methods: Twenty male and twenty female patients with persistent mechanical neck pain, ranging in age from 18 to 40, participated in this study. The cases were classified into two equal groups randomly (A and B). Group A has got standard physiotherapy program (Passive stretching of the upper fibers of trapezius, sternocleidomastoid, and scalene muscles, Isometric strengthening exercises of neck muscles, hot pack). Group B has obtained standard physiotherapy program in addition to trunk core training program.
