Aim. To determine the effects of vibration therapy devices exposure with a constant and aperiodic frequency of vibrations on the tissue of the biceps muscle of the shoulder. Material and methods. The study was conducted on 10 volunteers aged 24-35 years. the program Adobe Audition CC 2020, the device for vibration therapy with a constant vibration frequency “Charm 1-t”, the device for vibration therapy with an aperiodic vibration frequency “Individual massager with a pseudo-boiling layer” (MI EPS), the robotic biomechanical diagnostic and training complex with biological feedback CON-TREX were used. The measurement of the maximum strength of the biceps brachii muscle was carried out once to detect sensitivity to vibration, and then during 7 days for the dynamics of power characteristics. The maximum force was measured before exposure to vibrotherapy devices and immediately after exposure using the isokinetic classical mode of operation of the diagnostic system. Results. In a single measurement of biceps strength on one shoulder in a group of women, the average increase in muscle strength after using the Charm 1-T device was 0.8 N (2.3%), after using MI EPS – 1.9 N (6.4%). In the group of men, the average increase in muscle strength after using the device “Charm 1-T” was 1.9 N (3.2%), after using “MI EPS” – 4.6 N (7.2%). At the seven-day follow-up, the average increase in strength in the group of women on the right hand after using the Charm 1-T device was 21.8% (5.6 N), on the left hand after using MI EPS, the increase was 23.2% (6.1 N). In the group of men, the average increase in strength on the right hand after using “Charm 1-T” was 53% (30.7 N), on the left hand after using “MI EPS” – 15.5% (11.5 N). Conclusion. All participants in the study groups were determined to be sensitive to both types of vibration exposure. The study participants demonstrated an increase in strength indicators when testing the biceps muscle of the shoulder, and there was also an improvement in the tolerability of the procedure itself.

Closed traumatic disruptions of biceps brachii muscle belly are rarely seen. In this paper, we report two rare cases of biceps brachii muscle belly rupture sustained while water-skiing or wakeboarding and discuss the mechanism of injury, management and outcomes after a literature review. A review of published articles revealed only three previously reported cases of water skiing related biceps muscle rupture. It is important to be vigilant of these injuries, given that early recognition and operative intervention with or without direct muscle repair may optimise outcomes.

Background: The biceps brachii is an important muscle of anterior compartment of arm. It shows frequent anatomic variability due to presence of supernumerary heads. Knowledge of the existence of the third head of biceps brachii is important for surgeons. Keeping this in mind a study was planned to see the incidence of additional head of biceps brachii in sample Indian population and to compare it with other racial groups.Methods: The study was carried out on 30 cadaveric upper limbs. The upper limbs were dissected and studied for the presence of additional head of biceps brachii. The attachment and nerve supply of the additional head was carefully observed, recorded and documented.Results: Out of 30 limbs which were dissected, additional head of biceps brachii was found only in two limbs. In both the cases the additional head was present only on the right side and arose from the anterior surface of humerus, superomedial to the origin of brachialis. The additional head fused with the common bulk of the muscle and was inserted into the radial tuberosity and bicipital aponeurosis. The extra heads of biceps brachii muscle received branches from musculocutaneous nerve.Conclusions: Biceps brachii is one of the commonest muscles showing variations. The additional head is not only of academic importance, but its knowledge also helps clinicians in managing fractures of humerus and nerve entrapment.

AbstractMany authors have reported and classified several anatomical variations between the musculocutaneous (Mc) and median (Me) nerves, regarding their origin, number, and proximity with the coracobrachialis muscle. There also are, in the scientific community, records classifying the origin of supernumerary heads of the biceps brachii muscle. However, the occurrence of both aforementioned variations in the same arm is very uncommon. During a routine dissection of the right upper limb of a male cadaver, a third head of the biceps brachii was found originating from the fibers of the brachialis muscle, as well as a communicating branch between the Mc and the Me nerves, in the same limb. The objective of the present case report is to describe these multiple variations found, relating them and discussing their relevant clinical implications.

Abstract Context: Foam rolling has recently been used frequently to increase flexibility. However, its effects on proprioception, strength and motor performance are not well known. In addition, very few studies have examined the effects of foam rolling in the upper extremity. Objective: To investigate the effects of foam rolling on elbow proprioception, strength, and functional motor performance in healthy individuals. Design: Randomized controlled study. Setting: Exercise laboratory of X Department, X University. Patients or Other Participants: Sixty healthy participants (mean age=22.83±4.07 years). Intervention(s): We randomly assigned participants into two groups: the foam rolling group (FRG) (4 weeks of foam rolling for the biceps brachii muscle) and control group (CG) (no foam rolling). Main Outcome Measure(s): We evaluated proprioception (joint position sense [JPS] and force matching), biceps brachii muscle strength, and functional motor performance (modified pull-up test [MPUT], closed kinetic chain upper extremity stability test [CKCUEST], and push-up test) at the baseline, and at the end of the 4th week and 8th week. Results: JPS at 45° elbow flexion, muscle strength, CKCUEST, and push-up test results improved after foam rolling and improvement was maintained at the follow-up (p&lt;0.017). While the changes in groups for the results of proprioception and CKCUEST were similar among the three time points (p&gt;0.05), there were significant improvements for the muscle strength from baseline to the second evaluation, and from baseline to the follow-up (p&lt;0.001) in the FRG compared to the CG (p=0.004). The FRG was superior to the CG in the improvement of push-up test results among the three time points (p=0.040, p=0.001, p&lt;0.001). Other data did not change (p&gt;0.05). Conclusion: Foam rolling is effective in improving elbow JPS in small flexion angles, biceps brachii strength, and some parameters of upper extremity functional motor performance. These effects are maintained 4 weeks after application.

ABSTRACTDuring dissection of a 55-year-old female cadaver, we observed that three nerve roots contributed to the formation of Median nerve in her right upper limb. Along with this variation, absence of Musculocutaneous nerve was noticed. The muscles of front of arm i.e. Biceps Brachii, Brachialis and Coracobrachialis received their nerve supply from Median nerve. The Lateral cutaneous nerve of forearm was derived from Median nerve. Also an accessory head of Biceps Brachii muscle was present in the right arm of the same cadaver. It is extremely important to be aware of these variations while planning a surgery in the region of axilla or arm as these nerves are more liable to be injured during operations.

Abstract Background and aims : The biceps brachii is the large muscle of flexor compartment of arm. Normally it arises by two heads (long head and short head) and gets insertion in two parts (tendinous part and aponeurotic parts). The biceps brachii muscle is well known for variation in its origin. These variations can cause compression of brachial artery and median nerve which may pass deep to the accessory head of biceps brachii muscle, and can create problems for surgeons. So the surgeons should keep in mind such variations of biceps brachii muscle. The present study is to find out the variations in the origin of biceps brachii muscle. Material and methods: The present study was conducted in the department of anatomy of Gian Sagar Medical College, Ramnagar, Rajpura district Patiala (Punjab). In this study 32 human cadaveric limbs which were embalmed and fixed in 10% formaldehyde solution were used and these limbs were dissected and variations in origin of the biceps brachii muscle were noted. Results : Out of 32 limbs, 3 limbs (9.38%) were having three heads of biceps brachii muscle in its origin. The variations were found in the right limbs only. Conclusions : The knowledge of accessory head of biceps brachii muscle is important for the surgeons and troumatologists because there can be iatrogenic injury to the third head of biceps brachii muscle.

A general analysis of the behaviour of “Cebus” shows that when this primate moves position to feed or perform another activity, it presents different ways of locomotion. This information shows that the brachial biceps muscle of this animal is frequently used in their locomotion activities, but it should also be remembered that this muscle is also used for other development activities like hiding, searching for objects, searching out in the woods, and digging in the soil. Considering the above, it was decided to research the histoenzimologic characteristics of the brachial biceps muscle to observe whether it is better adpted to postural or phasic function. To that end, samples were taken from the superficial and deep regions, the inserts proximal (medial and lateral) and distal brachial biceps six capuchin monkeys male and adult, which were subjected to the reactions of m-ATPase, NADH-Tr. Based on the results of these reactions fibres were classified as in Fast Twitch Glycolitic (FG), Fast Twitch Oxidative Glycolitic (FOG) and Slow Twitc (SO). In general, the results, considering the muscle as a whole, show a trend of frequency FOG> FG> SO. The data on the frequency were studied on three superficial regions FOG=FG>SO; the deep regions of the inserts proximal FOG=FG=SO and inserting the distal FOG>FG=SO. In conclusion, the biceps brachii of the capuchin monkey is well adapted for both postural and phasic activities.
