PURPOSE: This study examined the effects of different external loads on the muscle activities around the hip during prone hip extension with knee flexion (PHEKF) exercise in healthy young men. METHODS: Sixteen healthy adult males participated in the study. A pressure biofeedback unit was used to provide feedback to the participants during the abdominal drawing-in maneuver (ADIM) with PHEKF. Sandbags (0 kg, 1 kg, 2 kg, and 3 kg) were used to provide external resistance. The quadriceps was contracted to maintain knee flexion 90° against resistance. Each resistance condition using a sandbag weight was given in random order. Surface electromyography (sEMG) was used to measure the electrical activity of the gluteus maximus, biceps femoris, and erector spinae during PHEKF. RESULTS: The muscle activity of the gluteus maximus was highest with the 3 kg resistance and lowest with 0 kg (F = 128.46, P = .00). The muscle activities of the biceps femoris and erector spinae were highest with 0 kg and lowest with 3 kg (F = 29.49, P = .00). The muscle activity rate of the gluteus maximus/biceps femoris was highest with 3 kg and lowest with 0 kg (F = 37.49, P = .00). CONCLUSION: The activity of the gluteus maximus was increased using a higher external weight load during PHEKF, while the activity of the biceps femoris decreased. These findings suggest that an external weight is needed during hip extensor exercise to strengthen the gluteus maximus and inhibit the biceps femoris.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the biceps muscles activity at the different angle and direction of the base of support on sitting position in hemiplegic patients. The biceps muscles activity was measured at the $0^{\circ},\;10^{\circ}$ of posterior tilt, $10^{\circ}$ of anterior tilt, $10^{\circ}$ of affected side tilt and $10^{\circ}$ of sound side tilt of the base of support by EMG biofeedback (MYOMED 432. ENLAF NONIUS CO.) In this study, 24 out-patients were evaluated who were treated at Yonsei University Medical College Rhabilitation Hospital. This study was carried out from December 5. 1993 to March 30. 1994. In order to determine the statistical significance of result, the ANOVA, and t-test were applied at the 0.05 level of significance. The results were as follows : 1. The biceps muscles activity of the sound side was no significantly difference at the different angle and direction of the base of support on sitting position(p>0.05). 2. The biceps muscles activity of the affected side was significantly increased at the 100 of sound side tilt and $10^{\circ}$ of posterior tilt of the base of support on sitting position(p<0.05). 3. There was no significantly difference in the change of the biceps muscles activity of the affected side between the affected group and the intact group of propriocetive sense(p>0.05). 4. The change of the biceps muscles activity of the affected side was significantly higer in the group of G 2 spasticity compared to that of G 1, G 1+ spasticity(p<0.05). These results showed that the biceps muscles activity of affected side was significantly increased when the base of support was tilted toward the sounde side and posterior direction on sitting position. In order to prevent the increment of biceps muscle activity, the patients must avoid to sit toward sound side and posterior tilt.

Background: Recently, there has been an emphasis on the use of interventions with biofeedback information for the maintenance or correction of posture. Objects: This study assessed the change of trunk posture and trunk muscle activation when people exhibiting postural kyphosis performed visual display terminal work with or without a contact feedback device (CFD). Methods: Eighteen right-handed individuals were recruited. Thoracic angle and right thoracic erector spinae (TES) muscle amplitude were analyzed. There were two sessions in these experiments. The control session involved 16 minutes of typing without a CFD, and the CFD session involved 16 minutes of typing with a CFD. The visual analog scale score was analyzed with a paired t-test, and the kinematic and electromyography data were analyzed through two-way repeated analysis of variance. Results: The paired t-tests revealed that subjects had significantly less pain after the CFD sessions than after the control sessions (p<.05). Significant main effects by session and by time were observed in the thoracic kyphosis angle (p<.05). There was a significant session${\times}$time interaction for TES amplitude (p<.05), along with significant main effects by session and by time (p<.05). Conclusion: The CFD caused people with postural kyphosis to straighten and to activate their TES continuously, even though they were habituated to bend their bodies forward. Therefore, the CFD was a beneficial treatment tool.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to use oral instruction and taping to induce abdominal draw-in in the previous study, but there is a lack of research on the comparison of effects. Therefore, in this study, we would like to study how the effect of oral instruction, taping, and no feedback can affect muscle activity when performing abdominal draw-in pier exercises. Methods : Before the experiment, group A trained piers and applied only draw-in piers, group B applied taping feedback, and group C were divided into three groups per week for six weeks, and three sets of contractions for five seconds per group were performed five times, and a minute break was provided between each exercise. As a measurement tool, a wireless surface electromyography (EMG) was used to measure surface electromyography (Telemyo-DTS, NORAXON, USA) that derives a synthetic unit of muscle using a surface electrode. For statistical processing of data, the analysis is performed using the SPSS/PC Version 25.0 statistical program for Windows, and the statistical significance level is a=.05 Results : First, the duration was somewhat shorter in order to more accurately compare the muscle activity of the core muscles. Therefore, future research needs to be research that can be exercises with precise biofeedback and taping applied over a longer period of time. Secondly, it is believed that there is no significant difference, since the subjects were studied in healthy young adult men and women, not patients. Thirdly, they could not control the daily life of the subjects. Through future research, it is necessary to analyze the correlation between muscle activity and abdominal muscle thickness by adding ultrasound in addition to muscle activity in various age groups. Conclusion : During draw-in bridge exercise according to feedback, the muscle activity of the back muscle increased, and there was no significant difference in the muscle activity of the back muscle according to each feedback. Therefore, both the feedback applied during the draw-in pier exercise and the control group are effective in changing the thickness of the abdominal muscles.

목 적 : 교통사고경험은 환자에게 정신사회적 스트레스요인으로 작용하며, 이로 인한 자율신경계의 생리적 각성수준이 항진되어 있을 것이다. 저자들은 교통사고와 관련된 환자중 교통사고에 대한 기억이 있는 군과 없는 군사이의 정신생리반응양상의 차이를 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 전북대학교병원 정신과 외래 및 입원환자들중 24명을 대상으로 하였다. 모든 대상자들은 교통사고 관련 환자들이었으며, 연구목적상 이들을 교통사고상황을 기억하고 있는 환자군(12명, 연령 $41.42{\pm}9.10$세 ; 교육수준 $10.33{\pm}3.14$년)과 전혀 기억하지 못하고 있는 환자(12명, 연령 $44.08{\pm}9.83$세 ; 교육수준 $10.92{\pm}3.40$년)군으로 양분하였다. 심리적 평가항목으로서 불안, 우울 수준은 상태특성불안척도, Beck 우울 척도, Hamilton 불안 및 우울 척도로 평가하였다. 생리적 평가항목으로서 자율신경계의 정신생리반응을 측정하였는데, 맥박, 피부전도반응, 근전도 등은 J & J I-330모델을 이용하였고, 수축기 및 이완기의 혈압은 DINAMAP XL Monitor mode 9340을 이용하였다. 스트레스작업은 '대본이용 및 상상기법'을 이용하였다. 연구 대상자들에게 그들이 실제로 경험했던 교통사고상황을 대본으로 작성된 것을 읽어주고 사고상황을 상상하도록 교육시켰다. 정신생리반응의 측정순서는 생리반응 측정전 약 15분간의 휴식후 '기저기간(3분)-대본낭독기간(30초)-교통사고상황의 상상(3분)-휴식기간(3분)'으로 하였다. 두 군사이의 스트레스작업에 따른 심리적, 생리적 평가항목들의 차이를 분석하였다. 결 과 : 정신생리반응중 피부전도반응은 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었지만, 기억군의 기저기간과 상상기간, 휴식기간의 측정치가 비기억군에 비해서 상당히 높게 나타났다. 근전도는 휴식기의 측정치가 기억군이 비기억군에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았다(p=0.028). 그러나, 다른 생리반응항목들은 두군사이에 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결 론 : 상기 결과, 저자들은 교통사고상황을 기억하고 있는 군에서 기억하지 못하고 있는 군보다 피부전도반응과 같은 일부 자율신경계의 생리적 각성수준이 더 높은 경향을 보임을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 교통사고관련 환자의 치료시, 그들이 경험했던 교통사고의 반복적인 기억(재경험)을 최소화시키고, 일부 자율신경계반응의 각성수준을 감소시키는 치료적 기법이 필요하다고 생각한다.
