4. Neer impingement test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neer_Impingement_Test

   The Neer impingement test is a test designed to reproduce symptoms of rotator cuff impingement through flexing the shoulder and pressure application. Symptoms should be reproduced if there is a problem with the supraspinatus or biceps brachii. [1] This test is also associated with the Hawkins-Kennedy Test and Jobe's Test. [2]

5. Thomas test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_test

   This constitutes a positive Thomas test. [2] Sometimes, with a very flexible patient, the Thomas test will be normal despite a psoas dysfunction being present. However, in the patient with a normal hip joint, a positive test is a good indicator of psoas hypertonicity. [2] Other signs from the Thomas test:

6. Hoover's sign (leg paresis) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoover's_sign_(leg_paresis)

   Involuntary extension of the "normal" leg occurs when flexing the contralateral leg against resistance. To perform the test, the examiner should hold one hand under the heel of the "normal" limb and ask the patient to flex the contralateral hip against resistance (while the patient is supine), asking the patient to keep the weak leg straight while raising it.
