Purpose Wedging of L5 vertebral body and rounding of the surface of the sacrum are well-documented deformities associated with spondylolytic spondylolisthesis.The contribution of such deformities to vertebral slippage has been a matter of controversy, although the results of many follow-up clinical studies have Indicated that the deformities are a consequence of the slippage rather than the cau...

Adductor magnus is the largest muscle in the groin and is one of the two long adductors of the hip joint. Working to adduct, flex and medially rotate the hip joint, it is a rear phenomenon for it to be torn independently, without any trauma. The main symptom of adductor strain is a sharp pain in the groin which might radiate in the inner thigh. The rarity in our case was that the patient presen...

This case report illustrates the presence of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) in a fighting Bulldog. The dog was referred to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, University of Agriculture Faisalabad Pakistan, with the presenting complaint of slowly progressing staggering gait, inability to stand on hind limbs and muscle stiffness in lumbo-sacral region. Hematological, sero-biochemic...

Pilates uses a combination of approximately 50 simple, repetitive exercises to create muscular exertion. Advocates of this system of exercise claim that exercises can be adapted to provide either gentle strength training for rehabilitation or a strenuous workout vigorous enough to challenge skilled athletes. The exercises are designed to increase muscle strength and endurance, as well as flexib...

The possible existence in the rat spinal cord of a peptide related to VIP, VIP(22-28), has been evaluated. VIP contains paired basic aminoacid residues at which posttranslational cleavage of these peptides might occur. The lumbo-sacral region of rat spinal cord had the most VIP(22-28)-like immunoreactivity (ir-VIP(22-28]. Chromatographic analysis of spinal extracts showed that ir-VIP(22-28) con...
