The association between back muscle characteristics and pressure pain sensitivity in low back pain patients Vrije Universiteit Brussel KU Leuven Universiteit Gent Universiteit Antwerpen
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Some low back pain (LBP) patients recover after every pain episode whereas others develop chronicity. Research indicates that the amount of atrophy and fat infiltration differs between patients with LBP. Also enhanced pain sensitivity is present only in a subgroup of LBP patients. The relationship between pain sensitivity and muscular deformations in LBP, is however unexplored. This study examined the association between ...

Methodology of electromyographic analysis of the trunk muscles during walking in healthy subjects Vrije Universiteit Brussel
PURPOSE: To review and discuss the literature about the use of trunk muscle electromyography - including the use of surface or fine-wire electrodes, site of application and muscle selection - during gait analysis in healthy subjects.
METHODS: The databases Pubmed, Web of Knowledge and Cochrane Library were searched. Articles were included when EMG activity of at least one trunk muscle was measured in healthy subjects during ...
