Are cervical curvature and axioscapular muscle activity associated with disability in patients with chronic nonspecific neck pain? - a cross sectional exploratory study.
Purpose: To ascertain the relationship between cervical curvature, neck muscle activity and neck disability in patients with chronic nonspecific neck pain (CNNP).
Methods: Ninety participants (mean age = 27.2, female/male ratio = 7/2) with CNNP volunteered. The Neck Disability Index was used to assess neck disability. To indicate the electromyographic characteristics of the axioscapular muscles, the root mean squares and median frequencies of upper trapezius and levator scapula were used. Cervical curvature was measured with a flexible ruler.
Results: Disability of the neck was significantly correlated with curvature (r = -0.599, p < 0.001), upper trapezius root mean square (RMS) (r = 0.694, p < 0.001) and levator RMS (r = 0.429, p < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis produced a significant predictive equation that could predict disability: 33.224- 0.515 × Curvature + 0.156 × Levator RMS - 0.059 × Upper trapezius median frequency + 0.636 × upper trapezius RMS + 0.020 × levator median frequency, with R2 = 0.622.
Conclusion: Cervical curvature as well as different axioscapular muscle activity were found to be related to level of disability. These findings have implications for clinical management of CNNP.
期刊介绍：
The translation of new discoveries in medicine to clinical routine has never been easy. During the second half of the last century, thanks to the progress in chemistry, biochemistry and pharmacology, we have seen the development and the application of a large number of drugs and devices aimed at the treatment of symptoms, blocking unwanted pathways and, in the case of infectious diseases, fighting the micro-organisms responsible. However, we are facing, today, a dramatic change in the therapeutic approach to pathologies and diseases. Indeed, the challenge of the present and the next decade is to fully restore the physiological status of the diseased organism and to completely regenerate tissue and organs when they are so seriously affected that treatments cannot be limited to the repression of symptoms or to the repair of damage. This is being made possible thanks to the major developments made in basic cell and molecular biology, including stem cell science, growth factor delivery, gene isolation and transfection, the advances in bioengineering and nanotechnology, including development of new biomaterials, biofabrication technologies and use of bioreactors, and the big improvements in diagnostic tools and imaging of cells, tissues and organs.
In today`s world, an enhancement of communication between multidisciplinary experts, together with the promotion of joint projects and close collaborations among scientists, engineers, industry people, regulatory agencies and physicians are absolute requirements for the success of any attempt to develop and clinically apply a new biological therapy or an innovative device involving the collective use of biomaterials, cells and/or bioactive molecules. “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” aspires to be a forum for all people involved in the process by bridging the gap too often existing between a discovery in the basic sciences and its clinical application.
