| Abstract | INTRODUCTION: To date, there is a paucity of comparative analysis of manual therapeutic procedures for the treatment of pain in the same spinal region. This paper examines the cross correlation of force-time histories across three distinct strategies of force production for the same thoracic spine procedure. Secondary analysis includes examination of the characteristics that account for potential differences. METHODS: A homogeneous sample of 21 male volunteers and three clinicians were selected as a convenience sample. The force-time histories were recorded using a table mounted force plate (AMTI model number OR6-7-2000, London, ON), and cross-correlation analysis was applied by strategy type, for analysis between group data. Secondary parameters included: peak force, preload force, slope of the thrust, instantaneous loading rate and thrust duration, of the total force magnitude. RESULTS: Primary results indicate strong correlations among all strategies but with notably different cross-correlation coefficients (0.894 ≤ r ≤ 0.946) based on individual comparisons. Classical descriptive components of the force-time curves (e.g. preload, peak force, slope) for each strategy group were examined. Significant differences in the raw data were noted on slope and loading rate (adjusted p < 0.01). One strategy of force development was significantly different from the others in four of the five characteristics. The effects of clinician stature were evaluated by normalizing force to body mass. CONCLUSION: Quantitative biomechanical differences in procedures may be responsible for differences in outcomes based on the method of treatment selected. This data set begins a basis for translational research to assist in identifying populations of thoracic spine pain patients for whom one procedure or other may be more effective. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
