Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging Zygapophyseal Joint Space Changes (Gapping) in Low Back Pain Patients following Spinal Manipulation and Side Posture Positioning: A Randomized Controlled Mechanisms Trial with Blinding
Gregory D. Cramer,Jerrilyn A. Cambron,Joe A. Cantu,Jennifer M. Dexheimer,Judith D. Pocius,Douglas Gregerson,Michael Fergus,Ray A. McKinnis,Thomas J. Grieve +8 more
TL;DR: Side-posture positioning appeared to have additive therapeutic benefit to SMT and Visual analog scale and Bournemouth questionnaire improved after 2 weeks of care in all groups (both P < .0001).
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the relationship among cavitation, zygapophyseal joint gapping, and spinal manipulation: an exploratory case series.
Gregory D. Cramer,Kim Ross,Judith D. Pocius,Joe A. Cantu,Evelyn Laptook,Michael Fergus,Doug Gregerson,Scott Selby,P. K. Raju +8 more
TL;DR: The feasibility of conducting larger studies assessing the relationship between cavitation and zygapophyseal (Z) joint gapping following spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) is determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of Cavitation and Gapping of Lumbar Zygapophyseal Joints during Spinal Manipulative Therapy
Gregory D. Cramer,Kim Ross,P. K. Raju,Jerrilyn A. Cambron,Joe A. Cantu,Preetam Bora,Jennifer M. Dexheimer,Ray A. McKinnis,Adam R. Habeck,Scott Selby,Judith D. Pocius,Douglas Gregerson +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used previously validated methods to quantify and relate 2 phenomena associated with chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy (SMT): (1) cavitation and (2) the simultaneous gapping (separation) of the lumbar zygapophyseal (Z) joint spaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliability of zygapophysial joint space measurements made from magnetic resonance imaging scans of acute low back pain subjects: comparison of 2 statistical methods
TL;DR: Both statistical methods were found to be useful and complementary and showed the measurements of the zygapophysial joint space from the magnetic resonance imaging scans of subjects with acute low back pain to be highly reliable.
