  2. Core stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_stability

    In kinesiology, core stability is a person's ability to stabilize their core (all parts of the body which are not limbs). Stability, in this context, should be considered as an ability to control the position and movement of the core. Thus, if a person has greater core stability, they have a greater level of control over the position and ...

  3. Myofascial trigger point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofascial_trigger_point

    Compression of a trigger point may elicit local tenderness, referred pain, or local twitch response. The local twitch response is not the same as a muscle spasm. This is because a muscle spasm refers to the entire muscle contracting whereas the local twitch response also refers to the entire muscle but only involves a small twitch, no contraction.

  4. Osteoarthritis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteoarthritis

    As pain may make it difficult to exercise, muscle loss may occur. [2] [10] Diagnosis is typically based on signs and symptoms, with medical imaging and other tests used to support or rule out other problems. [1] In contrast to rheumatoid arthritis, in osteoarthritis the joints do not become hot or red. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musculoskeletal_injury

    Musculoskeletal injury spans into a large variety of medical specialties including orthopedic surgery (with diseases such as arthritis requiring surgery), sports medicine, [5] emergency medicine (acute presentations of joint and muscular pain) and rheumatology (in rheumatological diseases that affect joints such as rheumatoid arthritis).

    Gonococcal arthritis (a bacterial arthritis) is also initially migratory and can involve tendons around the wrists and ankles. Sometimes arthritis is in an undifferentiated stage (i.e. none of the above criteria is positive), even if synovitis is witnessed and assessed with ultrasound imaging.

  7. Core (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_(anatomy)

    The core or trunk is the axial (central) part of an organism's body. In common parlance, the term is broadly considered to be synonymous with the torso, but academically it also includes the head and neck. Functional movements are highly dependent on this part of the body, and lack of core muscular development can result in a predisposition to ...

  8. In vitro muscle testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_vitro_muscle_testing

    In vitro muscle testing can be done on any scale of muscle organization - entire groups of muscles (provided they share a common insertion or origin, as in the human quadriceps), a single muscle, a "bundle" of muscle fibers, a single muscle fiber, a single myofibril, a single sarcomere, a cardiomyocyte or even a half-sarcomere. Muscle fibers ...

    DEXA assessment of bone mineral density of the femoral neck (A) and the lumbar spine (B): T scores of - 4.2 and - 4.3 were found at the hip (A) and lumbar spine (B), respectively in a 53-year-old male patient affected with Fabry disease. The World Health Organization has defined the following categories based on bone density in white women:
