Relationships Between Muscle Activation and Thoraco-Lumbar Kinematics in Direction-Specific Low Back Pain Subgroups During Everyday Tasks Open
Background/Objectives: The assessment of relationships between trunk muscle activity and thoraco-lumbar movements during sagittal bending has demonstrated that low back pain (LBP) subgroups (flexion pattern and active extension pattern mot…

Disc Degeneration and Cervical Spine Intervertebral Motion: A Cross-Sectional Study in Patients with Neck Pain and Matched Healthy Controls Open
While neck pain can be defined in clinical terms, in most cases the underlying pathophysiology is largely unknown. Regional cervical spine range of motion is often found to be reduced in patients with neck pain compared to persons without …

Relationships between trunk muscle activation and thoraco-lumbar kinematics in non-specific chronic low back pain subgroups during a forward bending task Open
Relationships between muscle activity and regional spinal kinematics varied between NSCLBP subgroups, suggesting that those with flexion- or extension-related LBP adopt different motor control strategies when performing a bending task. As …

Novel assessment of the variation in cervical inter-vertebral motor control in a healthy pain-free population Open
Spinal control at intervertebral levels is dependent on interactions between the active, passive and neural control elements. However, this has never been quantifiable, and has therefore been outside the reach of clinical assessments and r…

Have Studies that Measure Lumbar Kinematics and Muscle Activity Concurrently during Sagittal Bending Improved Understanding of Spinal Stability and Sub-System Interactions? A Systematic Review Open
In order to improve understanding of the complex interactions between spinal sub-systems (i.e., the passive (ligaments, discs, fascia and bones), the active (muscles and tendons) and the neural control systems), it is necessary to take a d…

Relationships between Paraspinal Muscle Activity and Lumbar Inter-Vertebral Range of Motion Open
Control of the lumbar spine requires contributions from both the active and passive sub-systems. Identifying interactions between these systems may provide insight into the mechanisms of low back pain. However, as a first step it is import…
