Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability and validity of the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) for assessing Korean athletes. Methods: A total of 48 patients (37 males and 11 females) participated in this study. Data were acquired after translation of the FMS from English to Korean and cross-cultural adaptation of the this questionnaire. To determine inter-rater reliability, the relationship between the FMS scores obtained by two raters was evaluated using the Kappa coefficient, which was in total agreement with the Intra-Correlation Coefficient (ICC3,1). Concurrent validity was examined by correlating the FMS scores with the Oswestry disability index (ODI) scores and Visual analogue scale (VAS) scores. Results: The raters demonstrated excellent agreement on 7 (above 90%) of the 17 test (72.9 to 97.9%) components. Substantial agreement was seen in 11 of the 17 tests. Two components of the In-line lunge and rotatory stability tests demonstrated moderate agreement. It showed good inter-rater reliability: the Kappa coefficients ranged from 0.42 to 0.97. ICC3,1=0.42~0.99 and 0.93 (total FMS score). Cronbach's alpha for FMS was 0.80. It was not correlated with ODI or VAS. Conclusion: The Korean version of the FMS is a reliable instrument for measuring movement patterns of Korean athletes and for making decisions related to interventions for performance enhancement.

The aim of this study was performed to determine the inter-rater reliability of the Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement (STREAM) translated in Korean. This was a new clinical measurement tool for evaluating the recovery of voluntary movement and basic mobility following stroke. A direct-observation reliability study was conducted on 20 patients who had strokes and were in a rehabilitation setting. Subjects were assessed by two physical therapists. The reliability of the STREAM scores was demonstrated by weighted kappa statistics for inter-rater agreement on scores for individual items ranged from .83 to 1.0, intraclass correlation coefficients for total score was .99, and for subscale scores was ranged from .96 to .99. The internal consistency of the STREAM scores was demonstrated by Cronbach alphas of greater than .99 on the subscales and overall. These high levels of reliability support the use of the STREAM translated in Korean instrument for the measurement of motor recovery following stroke.

This study was to investigate the kinematic analysis to score of the Yurchenko stretch skill according to phases in a horse vaulting. For this study, 8 male national gymnasts were participated in acquiring three dimensional kinematical imagining data with four Sony PD-150 video cameras After digitizing motion, the Direct Linear Transformation(DLT) technique was employed to obtain 3-D position coordinates. The kinematic factors of the distance, velocity and angle variable were calculated for Kwon3D 3.1. The following conclusions were drawn; 1) The COG resultant velocity of the less skilled group decreased in PRF phase because the less skilled group had a larger flexion-knee angle than the skilled group in BC phase, Because the less skilled group had larger flexion-shoulder angle than the skilled group in HTO phase, At blocking movement, the body inclined a moving direction. By means of it, COG lowered 2) The skilled group had a more rapid COG's vertical velocity than the less skilled group at HTD and HTO event in HC phase, because this was performed the blocking movement with body angle and contacted on a horse vaulting small and its time short by means of contacting hands on a horse vaulting quickly. Such blocking movement made the vertical up-flight movement easy at POF phase bringing out rapid COG's vertical velocity after take off a horse vaulting.

Purpose : This study was to identify the effects of Mobilization with Movement combined with exercise (EMWM) on acromio-humeral distance (AHD), range of motion (ROM), pain intensity, and functional performance in patients with impingement syndrome of the shoulder. Methods : The subjects were 40 patients diagnosed with impingement syndrome of the shoulder. Twenty subjects are randomly assigned to each 2 different groups; Group 1. (exercise group), Group 2. (EMWM group). Three weekly interventions were given for 4 weeks. The main outcome measures were ultrasound, goniometer, visual analogue scale (VAS), and Korean Constant shoulder score (K-CSS). The ultrasound (AHD), ROM (flexion, abduction), pain intensity (for shoulder flexion) and functional performance (K-CSS) were compared between the groups. Results : The AHD was significantly increased in Group 2 compared to Groups 1. No significant difference was observed between the groups in the range of abduction of the shoulder, but the range of flexion was significantly increased in Group 2 compared to Groups 1. Pain intensity was significantly lower in Group 2 than in Group 1, and functional performance was significantly increased in Group 2 compared to Group 1. Conclusion : An intervention that combined mobilization with movement with exercise was more effective than exercise alone for rapid recovery from shoulder injury and improvement in functional performance.

This study conducted 8 weeks of foam roller & mobility, core, and weight training for 9 middle school soccer players 5 times a week for 90 minutes to determine the effect on changes in body composition, thigh circumference, basic physical strength, and functional movement. To analyze the data according to the results of this study, SPSS 25.0 statistical program was used for analysis, and the mean (M) and standard deviation (SD) were calculated to present the descriptive statistics of all dependent variables. In addition, to analyze the difference between before and after exercise, it was verified using a paired t test. The statistical significance level (α) in all reasoning statistics was set to less than 5%. As a result, there were no significant changes in body composition and thigh circumference through 8 weeks of training. However, there were significant changes in agility and muscular endurance, and the total score for functional movement changes was significantly increased, and statistically significant changes were observed in three variables. Therefore, complex training is effective in changing the physical strength and functional movement of middle school soccer players, and further research will be required for a control group and various complex exercises.

Purpose In this study, We observed the recovery process in the ability to move in the hind limbs of the rats whose spinal cord injuries were treated by Radix acouniti(RA). The purpose of this study is to see the effects of Radix acouniti(RA) water extract on the contraction of rat's spinal cord injury. Procedure First, the rats were subjected to hemisectional spinal cord injuries by a scalpel blade. Those rats, then, were divided into three groups: Sham operated rats group and the experimental group, which received the Radix acouniti(RA) water extract, and the control group, which had no treatment. Their recovery in the ability to walk was observed by the Open Field Test (OFT) for 14 days after the injuries. Method The OFT was applied at four points: the hip, knee, ankle joint, and the tail. Each joint was given a movement rating of from 0 to 3, depending on the amount of movement. A movement rating of 0 designates no movement, a 1 designates slight movement, a 2 designates increased movement, and a 3 designates active movement. Slight movement is defined as a joint displaying less than or equal to 30% of that joint range, increased movement is displaying less than or equal to 60% of that joint's range, and active movement is greater than or equal to 90% of that joint's range. Tail movement is also graded on a scale of 0 to 3. A rating of 0 indicates that the tail is down 100% of the time, one of 1 indicates that the tail is down more than 10%, one of 2 shows that the tail is down less than 50% but more than 10% of the time, and one of 3 shows that the tail is down less than 10% of the time. All four ratings were added together and then averaged to arrive at a single score. Results The sham group which did not go through spinal cord injuries showed near normal results on all 3 joints and tail from right after the operation, which one would expect. The RA oral application group showed more effective recovery of movememt function than the control group around 4 days after the spinal cord injuries. However, after 14 days, both groups displayed almost the same degree of movement recovery. The results of this study are summarized as follows: 1. After 14days the spinal cord injuries, movement was recovered in sham operated group, control group, and experimented group in the hip, the knee, the tail and then the ankle of rats, in that order. 2. Around 7 days after the spinal cord injuries, the experimental group proved the effectiveness of the therapy in terms of movement recovery. 3. The level of ALT, ALP, AST in RA treated group was slightly increased. 4. The level of BUN and creatinine in RA treated group was slightly increased. The above results indicate that RA therapy at an early stage can bring about better movement recovery in patients with spinal cord injuries from traffic accidents or industrial disasters. But there is apparent side effect of RA on clinical, therefore the study on this should be continued.

This study aims to suggest the proper ease for slim-fit jackets according to the number of buttons from a one-button jacket to four-button jackets for men in their 30's. The researchers carried out both an appearance evaluation and movement functionality evaluation. The results are as follows: When conducting the appearance evaluations, meaningful differences were found. The one-button jacket showed high scores for the 7.5 cm ease. The two-button jacket and the three-button jacket showed high scores for the 10.5 cm ease. The four-button jacket showed a high score for the 13.5 cm ease. Next, the results of the movement functionality evaluation showed the same trend; as the ease was increased from 7.5 cm to 13.5 cm, the scores increased. This is because if the garments offer more ease, this gives room for actions. Additionally, it showed that if there were fewer jacket buttons, then the results showed a high score. The researchers believe that if the number of jacket buttons is lower, then the area of the V-zone increases, so that there is more room for movement. The study suggests a proper chest ease of 7.5 cm for the one-button jacket, 10.5 cm for the two-button jacket and three-button jacket, and 13.5 cm for the four-button jacket, respectively.

Background: The purpose of this study was to examine the extent and evaluation of pain after total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) and to establish correlation between three types of pain; pain at rest, pain with movement and pain with coughing (maximum pain). Methods: The present study compared quality of pain during pain management in 48 patients undergoing TAH. Patients received i.v. meperidine as loading dose in the recovery room and PCA with nalbuphine 90 mg, ketorolac 180 mg, buprenorphine 0.9 mg, droperidol 5 mg, plasma solution A 28 ml for 3 days. The PCA device used was the Baxter infusor$^{(R)}$ (PCA module PC-19-55, 0.5 ml/hr basal rate, 15 minute lockout interval). Patients were then interviewed on Operative Day (OPD), Postoperative Day 1, 2, and 3 (POD 1, 2 and 3) to assess their pain on a visual analogue scale (VAS) of 0 (none) to 10 (worst imaginable). Results: The mean pain score at rest was 2.0 on OPD and decreased to 0.7 on POD 3. The mean pain score with movement was 3.2 on OPD and decreased to 1.6 on POD 3. The mean pain score with coughing was 4.2 on OPD and decreased to 2.2 on POD 3. Conclusions: Patients' experience of three types of postoperative pain emphasizes the need for more effective pain management.
