The patients with hemiplegia show different body weight distribution as compared to normal subjects. These patients load their body weight more on sound leg than affected leg. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of foot placement under three conditions: forward, intermediate, and backward placement, on body weight distribution and time needed to rise while assuming sit-to-stand. Fourteen patients with hemiplegia participated in the study. Their body weight distributions during sit-to-stand under the three different conditions were measured by a limb loader and time needed to rise was measured by a stopwatch. The data were analysed by the repeated measure of one-way ANOVA. Statistical Analysis demonstrated that body weight distribution was less asymmetric in backward foot placement. The difference of body weight bearing rate between sound leg and affected leg was significantly decreased as foot placement moved from forward to backward. These results show that backward foot placement during sit-to-stand make patient with henuplegia distribute their body weight more evenly on the lower extremity.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the use of insoles in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders to assess the function and changes in pain when walking in daily life. Methods: Sixty-five patients with temporomandibular joint disorder, were selected, with 34 assigned to the control group and 31 to the experimental group. The control group walked more than 7,000 steps per day in their daily life, while the experimental group wore insoles and was instructed to take at least 7,000 steps every day. To evaluate the effect on temporomandibular joint pain, steady-state pain, maximum mouth opening, average pain, and the most severe pain were measured before and after the experiment. In addition, to determine function, mouth opening in a comfortable state, mouth opening pain, and the point of sound and the maximum degree of mouth opening were evaluated before and after the experiment. Results: After the experiment, pain, mouth opening, and sound points showed significant differences compared to the control group. However, there was no significant difference in the maximum mouth opening range. Conclusion: The application of air insoles to patients with temporomandibular joint disorder confirmed the function of the temporomandibular joint and its positive effects on pain.

시조는 우리의 삶에 역동적이고 정격화 된 치유의 활력을 제공한다. 본 연구는 시조가 명사로 끝나는 부분에서 발화하는 문학치료의 기능을 살펴보고자 하였다. 연구의 결과 시조의 종장에 사용된 명사는 서술어의 기능을 발화시키는 것이었다. 이 시조는 한 음보 단축된 11음보로 응집되면서도 12음보의 기능으로 발화되는 것이다. 이러한 시조의 기능 발화는 문학치료의 부호화에 대한 치료적 서술이다. 그래서 시조나 언어에서 서술하지 않고 명사만 언급해도 치유적인 부호화를 활성화시킬 수 있다. 그 이유는 시조의 명사가 인체에 끼어들어 주어가 되고 인체의 뉴런이 서술어가 되어 문장을 만들어내기 때문이다. 이때 뉴런의 핵이 명사로 들어온 정보를 분석하여 새로운 문장을 만들어낸 것을 인체가 인식하는 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 인식이 또한 인체에서 발화하는 치료의 기능인 부호화의 과정이다.

In chronic ambulatory hemiplegic patients, structural changes might be developed at both ankles possibly due to unequal and repetitive weight bearing on tendons and ligaments. We examined ankles by sonography to find out structural changes of tendons and ligaments of both ankles in ambulatory hemiplegic patients. Nineteen ambulatory hemiplegic patients over 1 year were included as study subjects. All subjects had no previous trauma or disease history in their ankle joints and they were able to walk independently or with supervision but had spastic ankles with equinovarus tendency. We examined both ankle joints by sonography to see joint effusion and measure width, thickness, and area of tendons of the tibialis anterior, tibialis posterior, and Achilles, and also ligaments of the anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular. We compared sonographic features of the hemi-side ankle with the sound-side ankle. There were no significant differences between hemi-side and sound-side ankles in almost all measured parameters of tendons and ligaments. However, the width of the hemi-side tibialis posterior tendon ($7.24{\pm}1.52$ mm) was narrower than the sound-side tendon ($8.61{\pm}1.37$ mm). With the amount of active joint motion and weight bearing possibly preventing ligament and tendon atrophy even though marked weakness, spasticity occurred during the chronic hemiplegic phase.

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the myofascial meridians release technique on pain and postural control of college students with forward head posture and to compare the intervention effects of the Grastone massage and the Rollfing massage. METHODS: Thirty subjects with forward head posture were randomly and equally allocated to experimental group I (myofascial meridians release technique using Grastone massage, n=15) or experimental group II (myofascial meridians release using Rollfing massage, n=15). All subjects underwent 30 minutes of different myofascial meridians release techniques in addition to general physical therapy (hot pack: 15 min, interferential current therapy: 15 min, ultra sound: 5 min) three times a week for a total of 6 weeks. Outcome was measured before and after 4 weeks of intervention. RESULTS: In both groups, the numerical rating scale of pain was significantly decreased after intervention, with experimental group I showing a greater decrease than experimental group II. The neck disability index decreased significantly after intervention in both groups, with experimental group I showing a significantly greater decrease than the controls. The distance of the head forward displacement did not differ significantly between the two groups (p>.05). CONCLUSION: This study suggests that the Grastone method combined with the myofascial meridians release technique is a more effective intervention for improvement of pain and postural control in adults with moderate forward head posture.
