Background: To investigate the asymmetry of paravertebral muscles during the superman exercise in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, and to analyze the applicability of this exercise for the rehabilitation of these patients from the perspective of muscle electromyographic activity.
Methods: 37 patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis are selected for this study. Surface electromyography signals of the bilateral paravertebral muscles during the daily sitting and the superman exercise are recorded.
Transition metal nitrides (TMNs) nanostructures possess distinctive electronic, optical, and catalytic properties, showing great promise to apply in clean energy, optoelectronics, and catalysis fields. Nonetheless, phase-regulation of NiFe-bimetallic nitrides nanocrystals or nanohybrid architectures confronts challenges and their electrocatalytic overall water splitting (OWS) performances are underexplored. Herein, novel pure-phase Ni Fe N nanocrystals armored with amorphous N-doped carbon (NC) nanoparticles nanocubes (NPNCs) are obtained by controllable nitridation of NiFe-Prussian-blue analogues derived oxides/NC NPNCs under Ar/NH atmosphere.

Methods: Eighty patients who were in compliance with the inclusive criteria were randomized into a conventional treatment group and a nape acupuncture group, 40 cases in each one, according to the admission sequence. In the conventional treatment group, on the basis of general medication, the rehabilitation training of swallowing function was applied.
