The scalene muscles play a crucial role in both breathing and neck stability as they connect the cervical spine to the upper ribs. Previous studies have suggested that their activity is correlated with head posture and chronic neck pain (Kang et al., 2018). Falla et al. (2003, 2004) ...
The bone mineral density (BMD) of the proximal femur, spine and radius shaft was determined in 75 women with atraumatic fractures of the proximal femur (FXf) (average age: 70.1±9.6 years) and 51 controls of similar age. Fractures were classified as either cervical (n=36) or trochanteric ...

artificial disc, natural biomechanics can be more closely retained throughout the cervical spine when the neck moves. While an artificial disc can help maintain motion, it does not create or improve motion. The cervical spine’s range of motion is unlikely to increase after disc replacement ...
