Patients' Perception and Satisfaction on Neck and Shoulder Imbalance in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Sin Ying Lee et al.

Summary: This cross-sectional study evaluated the perception and satisfaction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients with neck tilt and shoulder imbalance. The results showed that patients were aware of and unhappy with their abnormal appearances, and the overall satisfaction was higher postoperatively.

Handgrip strength asymmetry is associated with the risk of neurodegenerative disorders among Chinese older adults

Zi Chen et al.

Summary: This study found that handgrip strength asymmetry was associated with the future risk of neurodegenerative disorders among Chinese older adults. Public healthcare providers could consider examining HGS asymmetry along with the maximal HGS as a way to identify those at elevated risk of neurodegenerative disorders.

Is scoliosis related to mastication muscle asymmetry and temporomandibular disorders? A cross-sectional study

Ilyas Ucar et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) on temporomandibular disorders (TMD), and found that AIS patients had higher TMD symptom scores and smaller masseter muscle volumes compared to asymptomatic controls.

Handgrip Strength Asymmetry and Weakness Together Are Associated With Functional Disability in Aging Americans

Ryan McGrath et al.

Summary: Assessing the impact of handgrip strength asymmetry and weakness on future activities of daily living (ADL) disability showed that both factors increase the likelihood of ADL disability in aging Americans. The study suggests that handgrip strength asymmetry and weakness can enhance the predictive value of handgrip dynamometers.

Young athletes after ACL reconstruction with asymmetric quadriceps strength at the time of return-to-sport clearance demonstrate drop-landing asymmetries two years later

Matthew P. Ithurburn et al.

Summary: The study showed that young athletes who had quadriceps strength asymmetry at the time of return-to-sport after ACL reconstruction exhibited greater landing asymmetry two years later, which may impact long-term knee joint health.

Asymmetrical activation and asymmetrical weakness as two different mechanisms of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

Yulhyun Park et al.

Summary: The study investigated the relationship between imbalance factors including surface electromyography activity according to the scoliosis curve type and leg length discrepancy and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis curve types. Different patterns of asymmetry of paraspinal muscles and structural variables were described based on the curvature of the spine, which could contribute to the management in correcting scoliosis.

Handgrip strength asymmetry is associated with future falls in older Americans

Ryan McGrath et al.

Summary: This study examined the relationship between handgrip strength asymmetry and future falls in older Americans, finding that a 0.10 increase in handgrip strength asymmetry ratio was associated with a 1.26 greater odds for future falls. It is recommended that handgrip strength asymmetry be considered in handgrip protocols and fall risk assessments.
