Purpose : To compare the effect between isometric exercise group(n=10) and electrical stimulation therapy group(n=10) on improvement of biceps brachii muscle strength. Methods : The experiments were performed for 4 weeks and three times a week. The participants of this study were 20 students(10 male, 10 female) who had not any medical problems. We divided into the two groups. One group received isometric exercise and the other group received EST for 4 weeks. The biceps brachii muscle strength was evaluated by making use of the KIN-COM. Results : The results were as follows 1. One group which received isometric exercise increased 36% for biceps brachii muscle strength. 2.The other group which received EST increased 54% for biceps brachii muscle strength. Conclusion : The results of this study showed that EST group was more effective than isometric exercise group.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of isometric hip adduction and abduction on the muscle activities of vastus medialis oblique(VMO) and vastus lateralis(VL) during leg squat exercises. This study consisted of 21 healthy subjects who had no medical history of anterior knee pain or lower extremity disorders. The ball and belt were used to isometrically adduct and abduct the hip joint during the leg squat exercise, respectively. The surface electromyograms of VMO and VL were analyzed, and the findings were used to calculate the VMO:VL ratio during 3 different quadriceps-strengthening exercises(leg squat, LS leg squat with isometric hip adduction, LSHD leg squat with isometric hip abduction, LSHB). The muscle activities of VMO and VL and the VMO:VL ratios were compared using the paired t-test with Bonferroni adjustment. The results showed that the muscle activities of VMO and VL during LSHD were greater than those during LSHB. The VMO:VL ratio was the highest during LSHD. This finding suggests that LSHD using a ball is more effective than LS and LSHB in selectively increasing the muscle activities of VMO. Therefore, we suggest that leg squat exercise with isometric hip adduction using a ball would be useful for maintaining correct patella tracking and for selectively strengthening VMO.

항콜린에스테라제 약물은 AChE를 억제하여 ACh을 콜린성 수용체에 축적시켜 지속적인 ACh 자극을 유도하는 약물이다. 이러한 특성이 적출한 위장의 운동성에 미치는 영향과 콜린에스테라제 활성화 약물의 영향을 조사하고, 에탄올이 AChE의 활성도를 감소시키는 보고를 바탕으로 항콜린에스테라제와 에탄올의 동시 투여시 나타나는 위장관의 수축운동의 변화를 규명하고자 다음과 같은 실험을 수행하였다. 흰쥐의 위장을 적출하여 $2{\times}10mm$ 환상근 절편을 만들어 적출근편 실험조에 고정하고 등척성 장력측정기를 이용하여 약물 처치에 따른 위장 절편의 수축 변화를 측정하였다. 비가역성 항콜린에스테라제인 fenthion은 ACh 유발 위장 절편의 수축을 증가시켰으며 콜린에스테라제 활성화 약물인 PAM은 이 작용을 길항하였다. 가역성 항콜린에스테라제인 physostigmine은 그 자체로 인해 위장 절편의 수축이 증가하였는데, 이는 비극성을 나타내어 위장 절편 조직으로의 흡수가 빠르기 때문이라고 생각되고, ACh에 의한 반응성 또한 현저히 증가하였다. PAM에 의한 반응성 감소효과도 대조군과 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 최근 평활근 이완을 유도한다고 알려진 에탄올은 fenthion 처치에 의한 수축운동 증가를 억제하였고 이러한 결과로 볼 때 항콜린에스테라제와 에탄올의 동시 투여시에는 콜린에스테라제 활성도 감소보다 에탄올에 의한 위장관 운동성 감소가 많이 작용함을 의미하였다. 이상의 결론은 가역성 및 비가역성 항콜린에스테라제에 의해서 위장관 운동성 항진이 나타나고 이는 콜린에스테라제의 활성화 약물로서 길항되었다. 그리고 에탄올과 항콜린에스테라제에 동시에 노출된 경우는 에탄올의 평활근 이완 효과에 의해 위장관 운동성 감소가 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of electrical stimulation biofeedback on motor learning of quadriceps muscle isometric exercise in 3 patients who have undergone total knee replacement surgery. A multiple baseline design across subjects was used. The electrical stimulation biofeedback was provided with each patient during quadriceps isometric exercise, which last 10 to 14 sessions with 10 repetitions each sessions. After training patients received 4 retention tests. Maximum muscle activity was measured pre- and post- electrical stimulation biofeedback training and retention test to evaluate the effect of biofeedback training. Maximum isometric muscle activity of quadriceps was increased after electrical stimulation biofeedback training in all subjects. The results indicate that a electrical stimulation biofeedback training is a useful method to improve motor learning of quadriceps isometric exercise in total knee replacement.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of quadriceps setting exercise(N= 10) and electrical stimulation(N= 10) on improvement of quadriceps muscle strength. The experiment were performed for 6weeks. The subject of this study was 20 college students(male) who had not any medical problems. The quadriceps muscle strength was evaluated by make use of the KIN COM(Isokinetic dynamometer). The electrical stimulator was used to stimulate the quadriceps muscle. The results were as follows: 1. The mean increment ratio was 29.6% for concentric muscle strength and 36.4% for eccentric muscle strength after quadriceps setting exercise(p<0.05). 2. The mean increment ratio was 21.2% for concentric muscle strength and 24.3% for eccentric muscle strength after electrical stimulation, but did not significantly higher than pre-electrical stimulation In this study, we have found that quadriceps setting exercise on left side affect the improvement of the muscle strength in college students(male). However, electrical stimulation did not affect on the muscle strength.

This study was deigned to identify the effect of electromyographic activity of knee extensor during contralateral hip isometric adduction. six young adults who had not experienced any knee injuries were recruited. Their Q-angles were within a normal rage. They were asked to sit on the table. The EMG activities of the vastus lateralis (VL), vastus medialis oblique (VMO) were recorded in sitting by surface electrodes and normalized by MVC EMG values derived from manual muscle test. The EMG activity levels of the VL, RF, and VMO were the highest when foot was externally rotated. The EMG activity level of VMO/VL ratio did show significant differences(p<.05). The onset time of vastus lateralis (VL) and vastus medialis oblique (VMO) was similar in contralateral hip isometric adduction(p<.05).

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of a core stability exercise program using Swiss Ball on muscle activity, muscle thickness, maximum muscular strength, and pain in the trunk region during a 6-weeks program involving participants who have lower back pain. Methods : A total of 21 males between the ages of 20 and 33 years old were divided into 3 Swiss Ball exercise groups. Group 1 performed isometric exercises, group 2 performed isotonic exercises, and group 3 performed mixed exercises. Measurements were taken prior to starting the exercise program and after completing the program at the 6-week period using ME6000 to measure muscle activity and VAS to measure pain reduction. Comparisons were made using a paired t-test and ANOVA on SPSS 10.0. Results : There was a statistically significant effect in muscle activity for group 1 and group 3. Secondly, there was a statistically significant effect in pain reduction for group 1, group 2, and group 3. Conclusion : We found that isometric exercises performed by group 1 were effective in improving muscle activity and pain reduction.

Physical therapists have been using biofeedback training to induce improvements in various circumstances. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of visual and tactile feedback using electrical stimulation on quadriceps strength. Nineteen women without known impairment of the neuromusculoskeletal system volunteered for this study. Subjects were randomly allocated into three groups: visual feedback, tactile feedback, and control group. The torque of isometric knee extension force was measured. Subjects were asked to exert the maximal isometric contraction force of quadriceps over a 30 second period. The resting period of 10 minutes was given after the maximal isometric contraction to avoid the muscle fatigue. In between groups comparison, significant differences of the peak torque and the torque area were found on the performance of the maximal isometric contraction of quadriceps (p<.05). The values peak of torque and torque area were significantly higher during visual feedback than tactile feedback. The results of this study suggest that visual feedback is more powerful than tactile feedback (p<.01).

본 연구는 초기 편마비 환자의 손목에서 표면근전도 분석을 통해 근수축 개시 및 종료의 특성들을 알아보고, 임상적인 치료방법의 기초를 제안하고자 실시하였다. 연구대상자는 원주기독병원에 뇌졸중으로 입원한 환자 중 발병 후 3개월 미만인 13명과 원주시에 거주하는 대조군 7명이었다. 근수축 개시 및 종료의 지연은 표면근전도를 이용하여 손목굽힘근과 손목펴짐근에서 손목관절의 굽힘과 폄동작 시 3초의 근전도 신호음에 따라 가장 빠르고 강하게 최대 등척성 수축과 이완을 하여 신호를 수집하였다. 그 결과 편마비 환자의 환측은 건측과 대조군에 비해 손목관절 굽힘과 폄동작에서 근수축 개시및 종료가 유의하게 지연되었으며, 개시보다 종료가 더 유의하게 지연되었다. 따라서 초기 뇌졸중 환자의 근약화는 근육의 개시 및 종료의 반응시간 지연에 영향을 준다고 볼 수 있다. 앞으로 운동조절과 연관되어 기능적인 회복을 유도할 수 있는 근수축의 민첩성 훈련과 근섬유 동원의 효율성을 증진시키기 위한 치료방법들이 연구되어야 할 것이다.
