Loving this leadership in #spinecare. https://bit.ly/2JoCXwd Congratulations to Dr. Carol […]
Anatomy. Love it. "Although the sinuvertebral nerve fibers are said to terminate in the outer anulus, it is now widely accepted that this end point is not permanent. Studies of healthy patients normally show neural penetration of the anulus at about 3 mm [36], corresponding to the three outer lamellae [37]. However, degenerative discs have […]
The ansa cervicalis is a neural loop in the neck formed by connecting the superior root from the cervical spinal nerves (C1–2) and the inferior root descending from C2–C3. It has various anatomical variations and can be an important acknowledgment in specific operations of the neck region. This is a review the anatomy, variations, pathology […]
"We found a long duration and high prevalence of cycling and walking, but also that many adult Copenhageners spent much time sedentary. Population groups with low participation in physical activities such as cycling and walking should be targeted in future initiatives towards an active, healthy society." Time spent cycling, walking, running, standing and sedentary: a […]
Congratulations Ken Weber, DC, PhD •Neurologic pain signature activation decreased following spinal manipulation. •Spinal manipulation altered the processing of pain-related brain activity. •We provide evidence for a centrally mediated therapeutic action of spinal manipulation. •Brain-based models have potential as objective clinical biomarkers of pain. "The findings provide preliminary evidence that SM may alter the processing […]
SMS strategies can help maximizing the health care services for patients with spine pain. This may in turn optimize patients’ health. The proposed theory-based KT intervention may facilitate the implementation of SMS among clinicians and interns. Promoting the use of self-management in novice chiropractors treating individuals with spine pain: the design of a theory-based knowledge […]

1. We are a diverse group and the 80% of the mainstream majority has far more in common than not. We respect that chiropractic care is not for pain only, but acknowledge that is the primary reason for seeking care. Improving quality of life, function and encouraging healthy lifestyles under a holistic mindset has always […]
The studies we share and discussed this past week at Evidence Based Chiropractors, the one stop shop for evidence based practice. Effects of barefoot and shod running on lower extremity joint loading, a musculoskeletal simulation study. Neck pain: is it part of a migraine attack or a trigger before a migraine attack? Roles of inflammation, […]
Differentiating causes of low back and leg pain proves challenging, and inadequate or incomplete diagnoses result in suboptimal outcomes. Chiropractic care availability may lessen demands of primary care with respect to spinal complaints, while simultaneously improving patient outcomes. The authors describe three patients referred from primary care with a clinical diagnosis of sciatica despite differing […]
Senior author: Dr. Diano DeCarvalho, DC, PhD, from the Faculty of Medicine at Memorial University, NL, CAN.Transient perceived back pain induced by prolonged sitting in a backless office chair: are biomechanical factors involved? "We have replicated the differential transient sitting-induced pain response observed in previous studies. Pain developers do not sit differently than non-pain developers, […]

"Results from meta-analyses were more consistently in favour of an association, whereas systematic reviews that included only prospective studies were less able to provide consistent conclusions. Evidence that these factors precede first time LBP or have a dose response relationship with LBP outcomes was mixed. Despite the availability of many reviews, there is no consensus […]
"The available evidence suggests that changes occur in ‘brain function’ in response to spinal manipulation but are inconsistent across and - sometimes - within studies. The clinical relevance of these changes is unknown. It is therefore premature to promote the use of spinal manipulation as a treatment to improve ‘brain function’."Unravelling functional neurology: does spinal […]
"In addition to pain intensity, we recommend that clinicians should consider assessing the multidimensional nature of CLBP by including physical (disability, muscular strength and endurance, performance in activities of daily living and body composition), psychological (kinesiophobia, fear-avoidance, pain catastrophizing, pain self-efficacy, depression, anxiety and sleep quality), social (social functioning and work absenteeism) and health-related quality […]
Congratulations to Dr. Andy Bigness for being only the second chiropractor ever to participate in the University of Toronto's Advanced Clinical Practice in Arthritis Care program. A very competitive program to get into including letters reference, an interview, etc. This is a perfect example of an interdisciplinary future where chiropractors are part of the health […]

The majority of our sample, composed of Italian people complained of chronic LBP, shows poor self efficacy. Female gender and drugs use are significantly related to poor self-efficacy, low educational level negatively influences the amount of perceived pain and disability, and older age and smoking are related to disability and pain intensity, respectively. The knowledge […]
"Sports-specific IPPs have the strongest influence on most performance indices based on the significant improvement versus control groups. Other factors such as intensity, technical execution and compliance should be accounted for in future investigations in addition to exercise modality.General versus sports-specific injury prevention programs in athletes: A systematic review on the effects on performance #science […]
"In this retrospective epidemiologic analysis, mortality from neurodegenerative disease was higher and mortality from other common diseases lower among former Scottish professional soccer players than among matched controls. Dementia-related medications were prescribed more frequently to former players than to controls. These observations need to be confirmed in prospective matched-cohort studies."Neurodegenerative Disease Mortality among Former Professional […]
