Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical TrialEffects of experimentally induced pain and fear of pain on trunk coordination and back muscle activity during walking.
To examine the effects of experimentally induced pain and fear of pain on trunk coordination and erector spinae EMG activity during gait. ⋯ Variability of EMG data and kinematics may explain pain-dependent alterations of motor control, which in turn might contribute to a further understanding of the development of movement impairments in low back pain.

Effects of glenohumeral rotations and translations on supraspinatus tendon morphology.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of glenohumeral rotations and humeral head translations on supraspinatus tendon morphology. ⋯ The results support the epidemiologic evidence linking external rotation and abduction to supraspinatus tendon disorders.
