The Spurling's test was 95% sensitive and 94% specific for diagnosing nerve root pathology. [2] In another study done in the late 1900s, 255 patients were examined using a Spurling test and afterwards received an electrodiagnostic examination. The study results showed the Spurling test was 30% sensitive, and 93% specific for finding cervical ...

Compression test on a universal testing machine. Compression of solids has many implications in materials science, physics and structural engineering, for compression yields noticeable amounts of stress and tension. By inducing compression, mechanical properties such as compressive strength or modulus of elasticity, can be measured. [5]
A diametral compression test involves applying a stress load or force to the point where a material object is split in half (down the diameter of the object). [1] This test indirectly measures the tensile property of a material object, as the molecules of the material are pushed apart in opposite directions, similar to what happens to molecules in a direct tensile strength test.
Spurling would rather let others call what Lex has cookin’ a dynasty. “We’re focused on one year at a time,” he said. “It doesn’t matter what happened last year or the last six years.
Spurling, Sr., was joined by his son Richard G. Spurling Jr, and by Methodist preacher W. F. Bryant. [4] Spurling, Jr., held a revival in his Baptist church in Liberty, Tennessee, during 1892 during which some members spoke in tongues. This resulted in Spurling's expulsion along with some 30 of the congregation. They began meeting at the home ...
