Update of Concepts Underlying Movement System SyndromesZinat Ashnagar
This document discusses key concepts underlying movement system syndromes and musculoskeletal pain. It proposes that dysfunctions of the movement system can be classified into syndromes that provide guidance for diagnosis and treatment. The syndromes are based on directions or alignments that cause pain, associated with movement impairments, and improved by correcting impairments. Most musculoskeletal pain results from cumulative microtrauma from repeated movements in specific directions or sustained alignments. Understanding these concepts enables practitioners to develop appropriate movement system diagnoses and treatment programs focused on correcting movement patterns rather than just treating tissues.
Manual mobilization of extremity joints involves passive movements applied to increase joint mobility. There are different schools of thought on mobilization, including focusing on neurophysiological effects, treatment of painful joints, and restoring normal accessory movements.

Physiology of posture movementand equilibriumwebzforu
This document discusses the physiology of posture, movement, and equilibrium. It covers 3 main points:
1. The neural control of posture and movement involves pathways from the cortex, brainstem, and cerebellum that converge on spinal motor neurons. The pyramidal system controls voluntary movement while the extrapyramidal system adjusts posture.
2. Lesions to different parts of the motor control pathways produce distinct deficits, such as loss of fine motor skills from damage to the lateral corticospinal tract. Transections of the spinal cord and brainstem in animals produce characteristic reflexes and rigidity.
3. The brainstem, cerebellum, and vestibular systems work together to maintain equilibrium and
Locomotion which means gait is controlled by various systems. Janda described these systems in three different linkages; articular, muscular and neural. The slide show also, describes in the same the locomotion control as described by Janda in brief.
This document discusses ankle instability and chronic ankle sprains. It begins by describing the anatomy of the ankle joint and its ligaments. It then explains that ankle sprains are common injuries, often caused by an inversion mechanism. Chronic ankle instability can develop after repeated sprains and is characterized by recurrent sprains, pain, and a feeling of the ankle giving way. Treatment of ankle sprains focuses on RICE initially, followed by bracing and physical therapy to improve strength, range of motion and proprioception. Surgery is rarely needed except for severe, unresolving cases.
The document discusses neuropathodynamics and neuromobilization techniques. It covers:
- Flexion and extension of the spine and their effects on neural tissues, producing tension and sliding.
- Lateral flexion and its effects of increasing tension on the convex side and reducing tension on the concave side.
- Various mechanical interface and neural dysfunctions that can occur.
- Objectives, clinical tests, and techniques used in neuromobilization to restore normal neuromechanical function.
- Contraindications for neuromobilization include acute injuries or infections of the nervous system.
- Different levels of neurodynamic testing based on symptoms and neurological status.
The document discusses rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction surgery. It begins with an introduction noting that ACL tears are a common sports injury. It then covers knee anatomy, the anatomy and biomechanics of the ACL, surgical treatment, and post-operative rehabilitation phases and techniques. The rehabilitation process involves regaining range of motion and quadriceps strength in early phases, advancing to sport-specific drills, with a focus on gradually increasing loads on the knee through strengthening and proprioceptive exercises.
The document provides an overview of the physical examination process, including observation, joint tests, active and passive movement tests, muscle tests, and neurological tests. It describes the specific components of observation including informal observation of posture, gait, and soft tissues as well as formal observation of posture from different views. Joint tests include integrity tests and measurement of range of motion and effusion. Muscle tests involve assessing strength, control, length, and specific diagnostic tests of muscles prone to weakness or tightness.
The document provides information on anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, including:
1. The ACL originates from the femur and inserts into the tibia, resisting anterior tibial translation and medial rotation. ACL injuries most commonly result from rapid changes in direction during sports.
2. Physical examination of ACL injuries involves tests like the Lachman test and anterior drawer test to assess knee stability. MRI is also used for diagnosis.
3. Treatment involves RICE initially, followed by either nonsurgical rehabilitation with bracing or surgical reconstruction using grafts like the patellar tendon. Reconstruction aims to restore stability and function to prevent further knee damage.
The document discusses Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). TENS uses electrical impulses from a battery-powered device called a TENS unit to relieve pain. Electrodes attached to the skin deliver mild electric pulses that interfere with pain signals traveling to the brain. The TENS unit can be adjusted to control pulse intensity, duration and frequency. TENS is a non-invasive way to reduce pain without side effects of medications.

The document discusses Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). TENS uses electrical impulses from a battery-powered pulse generator attached to electrode-tipped wires placed on the skin over painful areas. This electrical stimulation blocks pain signals from reaching the brain through the Gate Control Theory and by stimulating the release of natural pain-blocking endorphins. TENS machines have adjustable settings to control intensity, pulse duration and frequency in order to effectively relieve pain through electrical stimulation of nerve pathways.
The document discusses the neural control of human locomotion. It states that locomotion requires progression, postural control, and adaptation. It is controlled by the coordinated actions of the neurologic, muscular and skeletal systems through various chains including sensorimotor chains. The nervous system generates locomotor patterns and coordinates multi-limb movements while accounting for environmental factors. Both lower motor neurons and supraspinal centers receive convergent input which allows locomotion to be adapted based on context.
In lesions below the mid-pons, a state of flaccidity, termed spinal shock, ensues immediately after injury with loss of all reflexes caudal to the injury.
The resolution of spinal shock occurs gradually , taking weeks to months.
The recovery from spinal shock is poorly understood and likely results from multiple, simultaneous adaptations in spinal processing that allow motor neuron to function independently from supraspinal control.
Existence of spinal shock, followed by a gradual return of reflexes that eventually become hyperactive, suggests that spasticity is not just a result of a simple on/off switch triggered by an alteration in inhibitory and facilitative signals
The document discusses the management of ACL injuries. It covers the anatomy and biomechanics of the ACL, common mechanisms of injury, signs and symptoms, evaluation through medical history, physical examination and imaging, and treatment options which include conservative treatment and operative reconstruction. It also addresses gender differences in ACL injury rates and considerations for ACL injuries in elderly patients.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

Motor control in ankle instability
1. Presenter: Dr Pooja Joshi
Moderator : Dr D.N.Bid
MOTOR CONTROL IN ANKLE
INSTABILITY
2. Functional Anatomy
Ankle is a stable hinge joint
Medial and lateral displacement is prevented by
the malleoli
Ligament arrangement limits inversion and
eversion at the subtalar joint
Square shape of talus adds to stability of the ankle
Most stable during dorsiflexion, least stable in
plantar flexion
3. Degrees of motion for the ankle range from 10
degrees of dorsiflexion to 50 degrees of plantar
flexion
Normal gait requires 10 degrees of dorsiflexion
and 20 degrees of plantar flexion with the knee
fully extended
Normal ankle function is dependent on action
of the talocrural joint and subtalar joint
5. 1.static stability
Mechanical static or passive stability of a joint may
be due to geometry of the articular restraints as well
as primary and secondary static restraints.
The lateral ligaments provide static stabilization of
the AJC, along with the medial deltoid ligament,
distal anterior tibiofibular ligament, interosseous
membrane, and joint capsule.
The unique AJC bony articulation of the tibia, fibula,
talus and calcaneus defines the articular restraints.
Passive structures such as ligaments and capsule
provided passive stiffness at the extremes of motion
6. 2.Dynamic ankle stability can be defined as the
ability of the ankle joint to maintain equilibrium
in response to an external perturbation.
Maintaining ankle stability during gait and other
activities is necessary in order to prevent any
injuries.
Dynamic ankle stability is influenced by passive
mechanisms such as ligamentous stiffness,
active mechanisms such as muscle stiffness, and
neuromotor mechanisms such as reflex and
voluntary control.
8. 1.functional joint instability
If a patient complains of instability, but has a
normal physical exam (no laxity) the instability
may be a result of the deficits in the sensorimotor
system (proprioception or neuromuscular control)
and has been diagnosed as functional ankle
instability.
2.mechanical joint instability
excessive laxity and subjective instability of the
AJC suggest mechanical tissue damage (ligament
and/or capsule) that may be accompanied by
reduced sensorimotor control. These patients
have been diagnosed with mechanical ankle
instability.
9. Prevalence
Prevalence of ankle instability is 35% in
normal population
In sports population it is 50%
80% of ankle instability because of ankle
sprain

13. Examination
Ankle joint complex range of motion (ROM) is
determined in each of the six degrees of freedom of
a joint.
Excessive ROM or laxity may be inversion/eversion,
plantarflexion/dorsiflexion, and abduction adduction
rotations, or anterior/posterior, medial/lateral and
upward/downward translations.
Ligament, capsule, muscle and tendon length will
affect the AJC ranges of motion.
Many clinicians attempt to determine if the ROM
was normal or abnormal based on their “feel” and
clinical experience with comparisons to the other
side.
14. Ankle Stability Tests
Anterior drawer test
Used to determine damage to anterior talofibular
ligament primarily and other lateral ligament
secondarily
A positive test occurs when foot slides forward
and/or makes a clunking sound as it reaches the end
point
Talar tilt test
Performed to determine extent of inversion or
eversion injuries
With foot at 90 degrees calcaneus is inverted and
excessive motion indicates injury to calcaneofibular
ligament and possibly the anterior and posterior
talofibular ligaments
If the calcaneus is everted, the deltoid ligament is
tested
16. Kleiger’s test
Used primarily to determine extent of damage to
the deltoid ligament and may be used to evaluate
distal ankle syndesmosis, anterior/posterior
tibiofibular ligaments and the interosseus
membrane
With lower leg stabilized, foot is rotated laterally to
stress the deltoid
Medial Subtalar Glide Test
Performed to determine presence of excessive
medial translation of the calcaneus on the talus
Talus is stabilized in subtalar neutral, while other
hand glides the calcaneus, medially
A positive test presents with excessive movement,
indicating injury to the lateral ligaments
19. Functional Tests
While weight bearing the
following should be performed
Walk on toes (plantar flexion)
Walk on heels (dorsiflexion)
Walk on lateral borders of feet
(inversion)
Walk on medial borders of feet
(eversion)
Passive, active and resistive
movements should be manually
applied to determine joint
integrity and muscle function
If any of these are painful they
should be avoided
20.
21. Motor control
According to Brooks, a neurophysiologist,
“Motor control is the study of posture and
movements that are controlled by central
commands and spinal reflexes, and also to
the functions of mind and body that govern
posture and movement.”
22. among motor control theorists. Bernstein is
most well-known for his “degrees of
freedom” problem: How does the brain
control so many different joints and muscles
of the body?
The statement of the degrees of freedom
problem brought renewed focus on the
physical aspects of the body, particularly the
musculoskeletal system and its role in motor
control.
23. Motor control problems may include deficits in
initiation of movement, termination of movement,
and speed and direction control.
These difficulties often are associated with
abnormal movement patterns. Many factors may
contribute to a patient exhibiting an abnormal
movement pattern.
These contributing factors may originate centrally,
peripherally, or both.
Central factors may include damage to the neural
circuitry that generates the movement pattern,
aberrant input (inhibition or facilitation) to the
circuitry, or abnormal motor neuron recruitment.
Peripheral factors may include muscle fiber atrophy,
changes in muscle stiffness, and muscle shortening
24. Types of concepts
1.open loop control
2.closed loop control
3.voluntary control
25. Open-loop control
The open system model is characterized by a
single transfer of information without feedback
loops
This model is used in the traditional reflexive
hierarchical theory of motor control
before stimulus onset muscle activation to
prepare oneself for the stimulus .
In the ankle, this consists of activating the
musculature surrounding the joint before
stimulus onset (landing) to control dynamic
stability.
26. Closed-loop control
the closed system model has multiple feedback
loops and supports the concept of distributed
control
In the closed model, the nervous system is viewed as
an active agent with structures that enable the
initiation and generation of movement
They proposed that damage to the proprioceptive
ligamentous structures. after LAS created a void in
the proprioceptive feedback to the central nervous
system and predisposed those individuals to
episodes of the ankle “giving way”
27. Arthrogenic muscular
inhibition
It has been postulated that altered neuromuscular
control patterns may be due to residual arthrogenic
muscle inhibition
which is described as a continuing inhibition of the
musculature surrounding a joint after swelling or
damage to the structures of that joint
Swearingen and Dehne , who found the decreased stress
tolerance of an injured joint triggers a reflexive inhibition
which affects muscles that are capable of increasing
tensile stress on the damaged ligaments.
It follows that the ankle invertors would be inhibited
after lateral ankle joint injury because they can initiate
movement in the same direction as the initial injury.
28. ANKLE JOINT MECHANORECEPTORS
Type I: slow adapting, low threshold Convey
postural sense
Type II: rapid adapting, low threshold Convey
sense at beginning of joint movement
Type III: slow adapting, high threshold
Convey sense at extreme end ROM
29. JOINT MECHANORECEPTORS
• influence gamma motor neuron output:
determine length of muscle spindle fibers
• Influence discharge of spindle afferents and
input on alpha motor neurons adjust
muscle length or tension to protect joint
from injury
30.
31. Role of Proprioception in Sensorimotor Control of
Functional Joint Stability
Motor control for even simple tasks is a plastic
process that undergoes constant review and
modification based upon the integration and
analysis of sensory input, efferent motor
commands, and resultant movements.
Proprioceptive information stemming from joint
and muscle receptors, as previously demonstrated,
plays an integral role in this process.
Underlying the execution of all motor tasks are
particular events, often very subtle, that are aimed
at preparing, maintaining, and restoring stability of
both the entire body (postural stability) and the
segments (joint stability).
32. neuroplastisity
CNS is massively adaptable. If we can drive
both spontaneous and purposeful changes in
structure and function with attended,
repetitive, rewarded behaviors, then we
should be able to reverse negative
musculoskeletal and neurological behaviors
through focused, selective, goal-directed
repetitive behaviors
33.
34. Use of external ankle
support to provide
sensory motor input
during exercise
49. Tapping and bracing
Taping the AJC prior to
participation in highrisk sports such as
football, basketball,
soccer, and volleyball
has been successful in
preventing ankle
injuries
