이 연구는 20대와 40대의 급성과 만성 요통환자를 대상으로 척추 주위근육의 단면도를 비교하는 것이다. 20대(남자-9, 여자-10)와 40대(남자-8, 여자9)의 대상자들은 MRI로 요추(4번 하부 종단판) 단면도의 척추주위근육(장요근, 다열근, 척추기립근)들의 크기를 PACS(free-handling technique of the picture archiving and communication system(PACS)을 이용하여 측정하였다. 연구 결과 20대 급성과 만성 요통 환자들의 척추 주위근들의 차이는 통계학적으로 유의성이 없게 나타났으나, 40대 급성과 만성 요통환자들의 척추 주위근들의 차이는 만성 요통환자들이 근 위축이 통계학적으로 유의성 있게 나타났다. 또한 20대와 40대의 만성요통환자 척추 주위근들의 차이도 40대 만성요통 환자들에게 유의성 있게 나타났다. 연구에서 20대 만성환자들의 근 위축은 나타나지 않았으나 40대 만성환자들은 다양한 이유로 근 위축이 나타났다. 따라서 40대의 만성 요통환자들은 조기의 다양한 요부 근력 운동 및 기능적 활동 등으로 허리 주위근육의 위축을 감소시키는 것이 필요하다.

Objectives : In order to investigate the relation of body composition analysis and isokinetic trunk muscle strength for the screening test of low back pain. Methods : This study was carried out with the data from comprehensive medical testing. 75 subject aged 20-59 performed the segmental bioelectrical impedance analysis, isokinetic trunk muscle strength test and questionnaire. Then we analyzed the relationship of data. Results : Low back pain(LBP) prevalence in high obesity index(Body mass index(BMI), Percentage of Body Fat(PBF), Waist Hip Ratio(WHR)) group was higher than LBP prevalence in normal obesity index group(p<0.001). In LBP group, Extension Peak Torque(Ext.PT), Extension Peak Torque per Body Weight(Ext.PT/BW) were significantly lower than Non-LBP group(p<0.001). And 90% of LBP group indicated abnormal Extension-Flexion Ratio(E/F ratio)(1.0 < Normal E/F ratio <1.6). When it comes to analyze relation between obesity index and muscle strength, Ext.PT/BW was significantly decreased according to PBF, WHR score. And correlation coefficient in Flex.PT, Flex.PT/BW, Ext.PT, Ext.PT/BW and PBF showed decreasing function. Conclusions : Results from this investigation showed positive correlation between obesity and LBP prevalence. Decreased muscle strength and inbalanced E/F ratio were shown in LBP. Trunk muscle strength was changed according to body mass composition parameters. This results are expected to contribute to prevent and diagnose LBP by application the clinical index of body composition analysis.

The purpose of this study is to analyze, durability of motor effort after finishing rehabilitation program and the influence from the isotonic lumbar region extension exercise after an operation according to the different operation way in invasive degrees. We selected randomly 80 patients who have no complication and musculoskeletal system diseases with finishing the 12 weeks' rehabilitation program after getting laser discectomy, but fail to conservative treatment, about Lumbar HNP, and divided into minimal invasive groups 38 and invasive groups 42 for study. As the results, in minimal invasive group, after finishing cure and 6 months later, the degree of hold muscle of women is much better than that of men. but in Invasive group, that of men is better than that of women, in case of women, the $0^{\circ}$ and $72^{\circ}$ in lumbar flexion angle have weaken or no improvement than before beginning exercise. and muscle force in $72^{\circ}$ in lumbar flexion angle increased to all men and women than before beginning exercise in Minimal invasive group. but in invasive group. it decreased. When analyze the lapsed time in Minimal invasive group, the groups who start the exercise within 3 months are better than the groups who start the exercise above 3 months after an operation the hold muscle degree all angles after finishing cure and 6 months later. Meanwhile, in invasive group, the groups who start the exercise within 3 months are better than the groups who start the exercise above 3 months after an operation about the hold muscle degree in 36-72 of lumbar flexion angle but 0-36 are not good after finishing cure and 6 months later. When analyze BMI in Minimal invasive group, the normal groups are better than the overweight groups about hold muscle degree in all angles after finishing cure and 6 months later.
