Cervicogenic headache is gaining prevalence in young adults along with proprioception deficit in the cervical region. Methodology: In this study, 30 participants who met the diagnostic criteria for Cervicogenic headache were randomized into two groups: experimental group and control group. The control group was given stretching exercises. The experimental group in addition to stretching perform...

The purpose of the study was to identify the effects of neck stabilization exercises on neck and shoulder muscle activation in individuals with forward head posture. Twenty-five healthy adults participated in the study. All subjects performed neck stabilization exercises using three methods. The types of exercise included craniocervical flexion (CCF) exercise, upper extremity and lower extremit...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the preventive effects of stretching and stabilization exercises on muscle fatigue of the neck erector spine and upper trapezius muscles. [Subjects and Methods] The subjects of this study were 26 healthy university students (14 males and 12 females). Each subject was assigned randomly to each of three study groups in order to prevent order ...

STUDY DESIGN A randomized controlled trial. OBJECTIVE To investigate feed-forward activation or timing of abdominal muscle activation in response to rapid shoulder flexion after 8 weeks with core stability exercises, sling exercises, or general exercises in chronic nonspecific low back pain (LBP) patients. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Delayed onset in abdominal muscles has been associated wit...

BACKGROUND Dance performance requires not only lower extremity muscle strength and endurance, but also sufficient core stabilization during dynamic dance movements. While previous studies have identified a link between core muscle performance and lower extremity injury risk, what has not been determined is if an extended core stabilization training program will improve specific measures of danc...

Let M be the closed Mobius strip (i.e. including its boundary). Let ∂M be the boundary of M . Compute H∗(M,∂M) using arguments with the long exact sequence and other basic properties of homology. You can use that you already know homology computations for circles, but you shouldn’t compute H∗(M,∂M) directly from the Delta complex. If necessary, you can also use that H∗(X) = H ∗ (X) if X can be ...

tinent to our overnourished society. The chapter on chemical, physical, climatic, and occupationally related illness is also complete and useful. According to the preface, the aim of the authors was to provide "a bird's eye view of medicine." To which birds are they alluding? There is the duckling trying to absorb basic medicine in two six-week clerkships. There is the physically and emotionall...
