Abstract Background: Modern imaging plays a central role in the care of obese patients, with an integral focus on its use and accessibility in individuals into this condition with alterations of various organs. Objective. To perform an echographical analysis of musculoskeletal system disorders, endothelial dysfunction and the left ventricle in obese rats. Methods. Sprague Dawley rats (250±5 g) were used and divided in two groups: control group (C) fed with a standard diet, and the obese group (Ob) fed with a hyper caloric diet of high fructose-fat for 4 months. Body weight, cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, inflammatory cytokines and adhesion molecules (ICAM-1, VCAM-1) were measured. Additionally, two-dimensional echocardiography, abdominal ultrasound and musculoskeletal system studies were performed in the lower extremities.Results. Body weight in the Ob group was increased compared to the control group, (p <0.001); in addition, increased glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides were found in the Ob group vs the C group, (p<0.05), and as well as increased adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and, VCAM-1 (p<0.01). On ultrasound, 75% of the Ob group presented, showed 75% fatty liver and distal joint abnormalities. Conclusion. Endothelial dysfunction and changes at the level of the musculoskeletal system with the presence of joint cysts in the posterior region of the distal joint of the lower extremities and fat liver were observed in obese rodents.

In these guidelines we considered some special types of overuse injuries, associated mainly with increased joint ROM in lower extremities, for representatives of types of motor activity associated with the art of movement. Therefore, more and more researchers note that the physical activity in athletes' rehabilitation can be achieved using various physical exercises performed in the aquatic environment

The article aims to consider the role of the musculoskeletal system in maintaining the postural balance. It describes two postural strategies (ankle one and hip one). The postural balance is assessed taking into account the «cone of economy». The article considers segmental anatomical and physiological characteristics of the spinal column and joints of the lower extremities participating in maintaining the vertical posture. It also shows the possibilities of non-radiological assessment methods of balance in the diagnosis and correction of postural disorders and diseases of the joints and spine.

With the help of rheovasography, the condition of the lower extremities was investigated in persons who had suffered a severe injury of the ankle joint in the distant past. The use of dosed physical activity in these surveyed made it possible to reveal the nature of peripheral circulatory disorders. The great informative value of rheovasography data for the examination of the work capacity of patients with the consequences of musculoskeletal system trauma is emphasized.

Research objective: development of a new technique of physiotherapy exercises in rehabilitation of children with orthopedic and neurologic diseases. Materials and methods: the technique is applied more than at 467 patients with various disturbances of a musculoskeletal system. The technique is based on use of proprioceptive proofreaders as “Propriofoot”. Advantages of this way of therapy are: purposeful correction of certain orthopedic disturbances, increase in efficiency parallel to the carried-out rehabilitation therapy; simplicity of implementation of the method connected with use of simple technical means and a variety of the technical and methodical approaches changed depending on severity of post-urological disturbances at the patient. Results: new approach to correction of various post-urological disturbances accompanying many neurologic and orthopedic diseases of the lower extremities, a pelvic girdle, a backbone is developed. Conclusions: use of a method of proprioceptive proofreaders leads to the pronounced improvement of results of rehabilitation, receiving earlier affirmative answers of treatment during the work with various pathologies, to turning on of additional mechanisms of post-urological regulation.

Introduction. Traction in dynamic mode (kinesitraction) is a new direction protected by patents of Ukraine, which combines the procedure of traction and motor activity. Traction treatment of the spine in a dynamic mode plays an important role in the treatment of the musculoskeletal system, so it is important to understand the structure, mechanisms and features of the structures involved in these processes, including the bath developed by us. The aim of the study. To acquaint with a design of a bath for underwater horizontal polysegmental kinesitraction treatment of the spine and lower extremities lesions, methods of its use. Materials and methods. Content analysis, method of system and comparative analysis, bibliosemantic method of studying the actual scientific researches on baths’ designs for underwater horizontal polysegmental kinesitraction treatment of the spine and lower extremities lesions, methods of its use are used. Sources are searched in scientometric databases: PubMed, Medline, Springer, Google Scholar, Research Gate by tags: kinesitraction, musculoskeletal system, underwater horizontal treatment of the spine, traction, traction system. 22 English and Ukrainian literary sources which describe this problem were selected and analyzed. The description of the bath for underwater horizontal segmental traction treatment of the spine and lower extremities lesions in the dynamic mode was used (Certificate of copyright registration for a scientific work N 99985, 25.10.2020). Results. The designed by us bath for underwater polysegmental kinesitraction treatment of lesions of the spine and lower extremities (Certificate of registration of copyright to a scientific work N 99985, 2020) is intended for the treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, internal organs, disorders of vital systems in the aquatic environment by exposure to dosed motor and traction loads. The design includes a water bath, armrests, handles, footrest, racks, cervical block system, chest block system, lumbar block system, head restraint belt, chest strap, pelvic girdle, shin strap, cable, load. Using a bath it is possible to carry out tractions of the cervical, thoracic, lumbar spine, their combinations, lower extremities, or total provide the traction. Conclusions. Traction treatment of the spine in a dynamic mode plays an important role in the treatment of the musculoskeletal system, being more effective than static. The understanding of the structure, methods and features of the structures involved in these processes, including our developed baths for underwater horizontal polysegmental hydrokinesitraction treatment of lesions of the spine and lower extremities, based on the correction of disorders of the nervous, musculoskeletal systems caused by morphological, biochemical, physiological mechanisms of stimulation of the functions of vital systems, regeneration processes, and the proposed methods of their use is an important component of effective treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Keywords: kinesitraction, musculoskeletal system, underwater horizontal treatment of the spine, traction, traction system.

Abstract The AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides), Fifth Edition, is available and includes numerous changes that will affect both evaluators who and systems that use the AMA Guides. The Fifth Edition is nearly twice the size of its predecessor (613 pages vs 339 pages) and contains three additional chapters (the musculoskeletal system now is split into three chapters and the cardiovascular system into two). Table 1 shows how chapters in the Fifth Edition were reorganized from the Fourth Edition. In addition, each of the chapters is presented in a consistent format, as shown in Table 2. This article and subsequent issues of The Guides Newsletter will examine these changes, and the present discussion focuses on major revisions, particularly those in the first two chapters. (See Table 3 for a summary of the revisions to the musculoskeletal and pain chapters.) Chapter 1, Philosophy, Purpose, and Appropriate Use of the AMA Guides, emphasizes objective assessment necessitating a medical evaluation. Most impairment percentages in the Fifth Edition are unchanged from the Fourth because the majority of ratings currently are accepted, there is limited scientific data to support changes, and ratings should not be changed arbitrarily. Chapter 2, Practical Application of the AMA Guides, describes how to use the AMA Guides for consistent and reliable acquisition, analysis, communication, and utilization of medical information through a single set of standards.
