Does self-myofascial release cause a remote hamstring stretching effect based on myofascial chains? A randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Background: The hamstring muscles are described as forming part of myofascial chains or meridians, and the superficial back line (SBL) is one such chain. Good hamstring flexibility is fundamental to ...

(Fundación Española de Artroscopia, 2021-12)
Objective: to conduct a review of partial ruptures of the subscapularis muscle (SSC) and establish their prevalence and preoperative diagnostic difficulty, as well as their frequent association to ...
Efects of occipital‑atlas stabilization in the upper cervical spine kinematics: an in vitro study
(Springer Nature, 2021)
This study compares upper cervical spine range of motion (ROM) in the three cardinal planes before and after occiput-atlas (C0–C1) stabilization. After the dissection of the superficial structures to ...
Assessing inter-limb asymmetries in soccer players: magnitude, direction and association with performance
(Sciendo, 2021)
In this study, we aimed to analyze the magnitude and direction of inter-limb asymmetries in ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM), power (using iso-inertial devices), and a neuromuscular skill (change ...
Effects of diacutaneous fibrolysis on passive neuromuscular response and mechanosensitivity in athletes with hamstring shortening: a randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Introduction. Diacutaneous Fibrolysis is defined as specific instrumental intervention to normalize function in the musculoskeletal system. It is considered a treatment method for the mechanical alterations ...
