Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of neck patterns in proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) for neck movement and the neck disability index (NDI) among adults with forward head posture. Methods: Thirty-nine subjects were randomly assigned into two groups. Subjects in the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercise group (PNFG, n = 20) received 20 minutes of PNF neck pattern (flexion-Rt. lateral flexion-Rt. rotation followed by extension-Lt. lateral flexion-Lt. rotation) 3 times weekly for 4 weeks. Outcomes were measured using absolute rotation angle (ARA), anterior weight bearing (AWB), range of flexion and extension motions (RFEM), and neck disability index (NDI) methods before and after the 4-week intervention period. Results: There were significant effects for the PNFG, pre- and post-intervention, in ARA, AWB, RFEM, and NDI. There were significant differences in ARA, AWB, RFEM, and NDI compared with CG. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest the PNF neck pattern could be beneficial for adults with forward head posture.

본 연구는 정모두부방사선사진 촬영시 수직적 두부회전이 방사선사진상의 계측치들에 어느 정도의 투사오차를 야기 시키는지 알아보고자 시행되었다. 임상검사를 통하여 두드러진 전후방 골격이상이나 뚜렷한 안면비 대칭을 보이지 않는 성인 25명을 대상으로 natural head position상태를 기준위치$(0^{\circ})$로 정하고 이 위치에 대해 양쪽 ear rod를 연결한 수평축을 중심으로 두부를 상, 하방으로 $5^{\circ},\;10^{\circ}$씩 회전시킨 상태에서 정모두부방사선사진을 각각 촬영하여 투사도를 작성한 다음 7개의 고경항목, 5개의 폭경항목, 6개의 각도항목을 계측하였다. 각 회전각도에서의 계측치를 비교 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 고경계측항목의 투사오차가 폭경이나 각도계측항목에 비해 전반적으로 큰 양상을 나타냈다. 2. 고경계측항목 중 회전축으로부터 먼 계측점간의 거리를 나타내는 항목일수록 투사오차가 컸다. 3. 폭경 계측항목 중 비강폭경, 상악폭경, 상악 제1대구치간 폭경은 각 회전각도 간에 통계적 유의차가 없었으나 하악폭 경과 하악 제1대구치간 폭경은 통지적으로 유의차가 있었다. 4. 각도계측항목 중 menton의 편위정도를 나타내는 각도는 각 회전각도 간에 통계적 유의차가 없었으나 crista galli와 maxillare를 연결한 선이나 crista galli와 antegonion을 연결한 선과 수평기준선이 이루는 각도는 통계적으로 유의차가 있었다. 이상의 결과는 수직적 두부회전에 의해 정모두부방사선사진상에 투사오차가 발생하므로 유용한 정모두부방사선사진을 얻기 위해서는 촬영시마다 동일한 두부위치를 유지하기 위한 노력이 필요함을 시사하였다.

Motion Analysis of pedestrian headform was first applied in this paper for the purpose of determining the relationship between stiffness of hood and HIC. Since the analysis of headform movement involves rotation, it has been problematic if analysis of the headform movement is made in local coordinate system only. Correlation of test and simulation is expected to be enhanced through the development of New type of Head Movement Analysis Method.

PURPOSE. When performing an occlusal procedure, it is recommended that the patient should be sitting straight with the head in a natural position. An inappropriate mandibular position caused by an incorrect occlusal record registration or occlusal adjustment can result in damaged teeth and cause functional disorders in muscles and temporomandibular joints. The purpose of this study was to clarify the influence of horizontal cephalic rotation on mandibular position by investigating the three-dimensional positions of condylar and incisal points. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A three-dimensional jaw movement measurement device with six degrees of freedom (the WinJaw System) was used to measure condylar and incisal points. The subjects were asked to sit straight with the head in a natural position. The subjects were then instructed to rotate their head horizontally $0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $40^{\circ}$, $50^{\circ}$and $60^{\circ}$ in the right or left direction. RESULTS. The results indicated that horizontal cephalic rotation made the condyle on the rotating side shift forward, downward, and toward the inside, and the condyle on the counter rotating side shift backward, upward, and toward the outside. Significant differences in deviations were found for angles of rotation higher than $20^{\circ}$. The incisal point shifted in the forward and counterrotating directions, and significant differences were found for angles of rotation higher than $20^{\circ}$. CONCLUSION. The mandibular position was altered by horizontal cephalic rotations of more than $20^{\circ}$. It is essential to consider the possibility of deviation of the mandibular position during occlusal procedures.

Background: The external rotation (ER) exercise in performed at a 90° abduction of the shoulder joint is an effective to strengthen the infraspinatus. However, failure of the humeral head to control axial rotation during exercise can be increased the posterior deltoid over activity. Biofeedback training is an effective method of promoting motor learning and control it could look forward to activate the infraspinatus selectively by controlling the humeral head during exercise. Objects: The aim of this study was investigated that whether biofeedback for axial rotation was effective to activate selectively the infraspinatus during ER exercise. Methods: The 15 healthy males participated, and all subjects performed both ER exercise in a sitting position with shoulder abducted 90° under conditions with and without axial rotation biofeedback. Exercise was performed in a range of 90° ER, divided into three phases: concentric, isometric, and eccentric. The infraspinatus and posterior deltoid muscle activity were observed using surface electromyography. Results: Both infraspinatus activity (p < 0.01) and infraspinatus to posterior deltoid activity ratio (p = 0.01) were significantly higher with biofeedback however, posterior deltoid activity was significantly lower with biofeedback (p = 0.01). The infraspinatus muscle activity and muscle activity ratio were the highest in the isometric contraction type, and there were significant differences for all contraction types (p < 0.05). Whereas, the posterior deltoid activity was the lowest in the isometric contraction type, and showed a significant difference between isometric and other two contraction types (p < 0.05), but no significant different between concentric and eccentric contraction. Conclusion: Our results indicate that the axial rotation biofeedback during sitting ER exercise might be effective method to activating selective infraspinatus muscle and recommended to enhance the dynamic stability of the shoulder joint.

Chyle fistula is one of the complications of neck dissections. Although immediate surgical repair seems to be the best choice when chyle leakage is observed during the operation, some operators can be embarrassed when chyle leakage is heavy and not controlled during surgery. In this case, chyle leakage was occurred after extensive resection of lymph nodes in left level IV, and was not controlled in any way. The clavicular head of sternocleidomastoid muscle was dissected and inferior-based muscular flap was rotated to cover the suspected region of fistula orifice. Amount of drainage was checked less than 20 ml per day in the following days, and drain tube was taken out on the 3rd postoperative days. We present the technique using the inferior based sternocleidomastoid muscle flap for intraoperative management of chyle leakage not easily controlled.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of postural sway on the kinematic variables of the putter head during golf putting and to provide information to the importance of postural sway control in the putting stroke for novice golfers. Method: The center of pressure (CoP) and Kinematics variables of the putter head were calculated during 2 m flat golf putting using 8 motion capture cameras (250 Hz) and 2 force plate (1,000 Hz). SPSS 24.0 was used to perform Pearson's correlation coefficient and simple regression analysis, and the statistically significance level was set to .05. Results: As a result of analyzing the correlation between CoP variables and the putter head rotation angle, the CoP moving length, CoP moving range (ML direction), and CoP moving velocity (ML direction) showed a positive correlation with the putter head rotation angle (yaw axis) and were statistically significant. Conclusion: Therefore, In order to perform the accurate putting stroke maintaining the ball's directionality, it is determined that it is important to control posture sway in the ML directions by minimizing the movement and velocity of the CoP.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the ball velocity changes depending on the different linear momentum of putter head. For this study, two different moving conditions(25cm free fall and 35cm free fall) of putter head were set. And two different types of ground conditions were used which are artificial grass green($180cm{\times}600cm{\times}1cm$) and glass green($40cm{\times}130cm{\times}1cm$). Movements of putter head and ball were recorded with 2 HD video cameras(60 Hz, 1/500s shutter speed). Small size control object($18.5cm{\times}18.5cm{\times}78.5cm$) was used in this study. Ball and putter head velocities were calculated by the First Central Difference Method(Hamill & Knutzen, 1995). Linear momentum of ball and putter head were calculated with mass and its velocities. Before impact, the velocity of the putter head of 35cm free fall was about 30% greater than that of the putter head of 25cm free fall. Linear momentum of putter head of 35cm free fall was about 0.355-0.364kg m/s and 25cm free fall was 0.251 kg m/s. After impact, putter head lost its linear momentum about 14-19% and adjusting time of putter head after impact would be 0.1 second. After 0.1 second, putter moved the route same as before impact. Maximum ball velocities were appeared 0.08s-0.10s after impact no matter what the ground conditions are. Ball velocities struck by 35cm free fall were 30 % faster than 25cm free fall. Linear momentum of ball struck by putter head was greater than that of expected amount because the moving ball has translational energy and rotational energy. Future study must treat three things. One is ball must struck by the different putters with different materials. Another is two-piece ball and three-piece ball should be used for the same condition studies. The other is height of center of rotation of club should be changed. In this study, the height of center of rotation of club head is 71cm from the ground. But recently many golfers used the long putter. Therefore next study should apply the different height of center of rotation of club head.
