Activation of serratus anterior during horizontal abduction
This study investigated the effect of adding isometric horizontal abduction (IHA) using a Thera-Band during three exercises (forward flexion, scaption, wall push-up plus) on activation of the pectoralis major and serratus anterior muscles. The results showed that IHA significantly decreased pectoralis major activation, increased serratus anterior activation, and decreased the pectoralis major to serratus anterior ratio during forward flexion and wall push-up plus. Therefore, IHA is an effective method to induce greater serratus anterior activation while preventing excessive pectoralis major activation during these exercises.

Core hip and slings function review oct 2012
This document discusses hip and core strengthening from an evidence-based perspective. It begins by outlining how posture is a symptom rather than a cause of dysfunction, which corresponds to compromised muscle activity. Typically stabilizers become inhibited while movers become overactive, driving faulty posture. The document then examines research on the transversus abdominis and its role in spinal stability. It analyzes various hip muscles like the gluteus maximus and medius and their functions. Single leg squats are discussed as a functional assessment tool. The document concludes by recommending specific corrective exercises to target muscle imbalances.
BEGOVIC ET AL. 2014
This study aimed to detect the electromechanical delay (EMD) and its components during voluntary isometric contractions of the quadriceps femoris muscle. The researchers measured time delays between the onsets of EMG-MMG, EMG-US, MMG-FORCE, US-FORCE, and EMG-FORCE signals. They found ultrasonography (US) provided more reliable detection of muscle fiber motion onset compared to mechanomyography (MMG). The study concluded synchronization of US with EMG and force sensors can reveal reliable results about EMD and its components during voluntary muscle contractions by detecting fiber motion onset from a certain muscle depth.
Jennings Lm. Wear Of Knee Replacements Influence Of Kinematics And Design
The document discusses factors that influence wear in knee replacements, including prosthesis design and kinematics. It finds that rotating platform mobile bearing knee replacements significantly reduce wear and osteolytic potential compared to fixed bearing knees, but some of these benefits can be lost if lift-off of the femoral condyle occurs, increasing medial/lateral wear in both designs. Careful surgery and soft tissue management are important to wear performance. Rotating platform mobile bearing knees showed a four-fold reduction in wear rate compared to fixed bearing knees in simulated tests.
Orthopedic Surgeries and Physiotherapy in Cerebral Palsy
This document discusses orthopaedic surgeries and physiotherapy for cerebral palsy, focusing on spine/scoliosis, hips, knees, and lower legs. For scoliosis, conservative treatments include bracing and physical therapy while surgical treatment is posterior spinal fusion. For hips, soft tissue releases and osteotomies are used to treat subluxation/dislocation, while contractures may be treated with botulinum toxin or soft tissue lengthening. Knee flexion contractures are treated first with stretching and bracing but may require hamstring lengthening, capsulotomy, or femoral osteotomy. Post-operative rehabilitation focuses on range of motion, stretching, strengthening, and functional training.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. biomechanics of running. Dr.dhwani.pptx
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.
Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
