Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between mechanical factors and incidence of low back pain.
TL;DR: It appears that muscle endurance and weakness are associated with LBP and that structural factors such as the size of the lumbar lordosis, pelvic tilt, leg length discrepancy, and the length of abdominal, hamstring, and iliopsoas muscles are not associated with the occurrence of LBP.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of dry needling on pain, pressure pain threshold and disability in patients with a myofascial trigger point in the upper trapezius muscle.
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of dry needling (DN) in the treatment of myofascial trigger points (TrP) in upper trapezius (UT) muscle was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of lifestyle and work-related physical activity on the degree of lumbar lordosis and chronic low back pain in a Middle East population.
TL;DR: The finding that lifestyle, exercise, work setting, work intensity, and other demographic factors such as age, height, weight, and gender affected the occurrence of LBP indicates that the effect of these factors on LBP involves mechanisms other than changing the degree of lumbar lordosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between hip abductor muscle strength and iliotibial band tightness in individuals with low back pain
TL;DR: The relationship between ITB tightness and hip abductor weakness in patients with LBP is not supported as assumed in theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between hamstring length and gluteal muscle strength in individuals with sacroiliac joint dysfunction
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between hamstring muscle length and gluteal muscle strength in subjects with sacroiliac joint dysfunction was determined, and it has been suggested that tight hamstring muscle, due to its anatomical connections, could be a compensatory mechanism for providing sacraliliac (SI) joint stability.
