Axially Loaded Magnetic Resonance Imaging Identification of the Factors Associated with Low Back-Related Leg Pain

Goal of the Study? In this primary research article [1. A novel rat tail disc degeneration model induced by static bending and compression] the authors aim to establish an animal model that can be extrapolated to the complex mechanical load of human intervertebral disc during bending and compression loading.  Their hypothesis was that a [...]

Associations between physical or psychosocial risk factors and work-related musculoskeletal disorders in construction workers based on literature in the last 20 years: A systematic review

Goal of the Study? This article [1. Associations between physical or psychosocial risk factors and work-related musculoskeletal disorders in construction workers based on literature in the last 20 years: A systematic review] is a systematic review that aims to summarize the prevalence rates of working related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSDs) and measure the associations between [...]

Magnetic resonance imaging and stadiometric assessment of the lumbar discs after sitting and chair-care decompression exercise: a pilot study

Goal of the Study? In this study, [1. Magnetic resonance imaging and stadiometric assessment of the lumbar discs after sitting and chair-care decompression exercise: a pilot study], the purpose was to determine the practicality of using upright magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and stadiometry to measure changes in height and alignment of the lumbar spine [...]

Dynamic Sitting Exercise for LBP and General Spinal Health

Innovation Ignites Innovation In 1999, a simple idea came to me. And it is hard-pressed to believe I was the first to think of this pose, considering how common it is.  One thing I am certain of is that I was the first to measure it.  It was in biomechanics class when the idea [...]
