Introduction The most common work-related musculoskeletal disorder worldwide is neck pain, especially among individuals who extensively use computers in a seated position. One biomedical cause of this neck pain is the prolonged activity of the muscles around the neck. Electromyography (EMG) has been used to evaluate the frequency and intensity of muscle activity.

The aim of this study was to compare the correlation between electromyography (EMG) activity and vehicle motion during double lane change driving. This study measured five vehicle motions: the steering wheel angle, steering wheel torque, lateral acceleration, roll angle, and yaw velocity. The EMG activity for 19 muscles and vehicle motions was applied for envelope detection.

Upper crossed syndrome (UCS) characterizes a prevalent postural dysfunction involving dysfunctional tone in the musculature of the shoulder girdle and cervicothoracic region. The discordant balance among the sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis major, levator scapulae, and upper trapezius musculature potentially precipitated cervical discomfort, thereby hindering routine activities and fostering the progression of UCS. Clinical scales are routinely utilized to assess and monitor the progress of rehabilitation; nonetheless, they often present inherent limitations.

Study Objective: The objective of this anatomical study was to investigate the distribution of a solution administered using the Clavipectoral Fascia Plane Block (CPB) technique in a series of cadaveric models with midshaft clavicular fractures. The study aimed to address the knowledge gap regarding the impact of clavicular fractures on the distribution pattern of the CPB-administered solution.
Design: Observational cadaveric study.

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the imaging features and postoperative natural course of F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in the cervical muscles after neck dissection.
Materials And Methods: This study included 83 patients who underwent preoperative and postoperative F-FDG-PET/CT and were diagnosed with head and neck malignancy after neck dissection. Postoperative F-FDG-PET/CT was performed within 5 years after neck dissection.
