Study was conducted in laboratory condition for investagating the relationship between muscle strain and arm positions. Rerults showed that: the bio-potential of brachioradialis, deltoid and trapezius muscles were significant higher when the arms were elevated at haft-arm length. The trapezius had highest bio-potential than the other left. The subjective shoulder pain occurred after 15-17 mimutes of experiment. When was higher hio-potential, that the muscle pain was more obvious. The accumulation of pain can be considered as reason of that called Neck-Shoulder Disorders.

Milia en plaque is designated as an atypical subtype of milia which is characterized by a group of milia on an erythematous base. It usually arises spontaneously in predisposed persons without any apparent causative factor and commonly occurs on the periauricular area. Histopathologic finding is consistent with milia and treatment is not established. We report a case of milia en plaque produced by physical stress in the right arm.

Ancient schwannoma is a variant of schwannoma and is characterized slowly growing tumor with degenerative change. And it is reported that schwannoma is relatively rare in extensor area. As a rare cause of solitary ancient schwannoma in extensor area of upper arm, we report it.

Evaluation of the sacrum in anorectal malformations (ARMs) is important because of the frequent association with ARMs and functional outcome after correction of ARMs. Sacral defects are not easily detected because of immaturity of sacrum in children and overlooking of pediatric surgeons. The authors utilized the sacral ratio in normal children and patients with ARMs. In normal children, the mean true sacral ratio and mean sacrococcygeal ratio were 0.60+/-0.08 and 0.72+/-0.13 respectively. Sacral ratio was not correlated with age and did not changed with age in same patient. However, true sacral ratio and sacrococcygeal ratio were significantly lower in patients with high type ARMs than those of normal children (p<0.001). There was no difference between patients with low type ARMs and normal children. These results suggest that abnormal sacrums are more frequently encountered in patients with high type ARMs than in normal children, and that true sacral ratio and sacrococcygeal ratio can be used in the evaluation of the abnormal sacrum.

BACKGROUND: Fatigue has a strong impact on workers' performance and safety, but expedient methods for assessing fatigue on the job are not yet available. Studies discuss posturography as an indicator of fatigue, but further evidence for its use in the workplace is needed. The purpose of the study is to examine whether posturography is a suitable indicator of fatigue in clerical workers. METHODS: Thirty-six employees (O 34.8 years, standard deviation = 12.5) participated in postural tasks (eyes open, eyes closed, arm swinging, and dual task) in the morning and afternoon. Position of their center of pressure (COP) was registered using a Nintendo Wii Balance Board and commercial software. From registered COP time series, we calculated the following parameters: path length (mm), velocity (mm/s), anterior-posterior variance (mm), mediolateral variance (mm), and confidence area (mm2). These parameters were reduced to two orthogonal factors in a factor analysis with varimax rotation. RESULTS: Statistical analysis of the first factor (path length and velocity) showed a significant effect of time of day: COP moved along a shorter path at a lower velocity in the afternoon compared with that in the morning. There also was a significant effect of task, but no significant interaction. CONCLUSION: Data suggest that postural stability of clerical workers was comparable in the morning and afternoon, but COP movement was greater in the morning. Within the framework of dynamic systems theory, this could indicate that the postural system explored the state space in more detail, and thus was more ready to respond to unexpected perturbations in the morning.
