Abstract:
Objective To explore dose-effect relationship of biomechanical parameters in treating atlantoaxial joint disor-der by slimming manipulation.Methods From October 2022 to May 2023,18 patients with atlantoaxial joint disorders were treated,including 10 males and 8 females;aged from 24 to 27 years old with an average of(25.50±l.10)years old;CT of cer-vical vertebra showed 16 patients with right side distortion and 2 patients with left side distortion.The mechanical parameters of treatment of atlantoaxial joint disorder by tendon relaxation manipulation were measured by wearing massage manipulation gloves.The magnitude,frequency and mechanical curve of force during tendon relaxation and starting force,pulling force,pulling time and mechanical curve during rehabilitation were quantified,the differences between the affected and contralateral manipulations were compared.Results The maximum force and frequency of Fengchi(GB20)on the affected side were(19.82±2.02)N and(116.83±14.49)times/min,and opposite side were(13.87±2.19)N and(188.89±16.03)times/min,re-spectively.There were statistically difference in the maximum force and frequency of both sides(P<0.05).The maximum force and frequency of Quepen(ST12)on the affected side were(14.44±3.27)N and(139.06±28.47)times/min,and those on the opposite side were(9.41±1.38)N and(142.50±28.47)times/min.There was difference in maximum force on both sides(P<0.05).The starting force,turning force and turning time of the affected side were(14.16±5.98)N,(11.56±6.63)N,(0.14±0.03)S,and the contralateral side were(8.94±3.39)N,(8.30±4.64)N,(0.18±0.04)S,respectively.The difference of starting force,turning force and turning time on both sides were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion By applying a light re-laxation force on the affected side,the mechanical balance between cervical vertebrae could be restored,and recovery trend of atlantoaxial joint disorder could be strengthened.On this basis,the atlantoaxial odontoid process could be reversed by applying a light rotation force,which reflects the characteristics of high safety of the manipulation.
