Abstract

motion (ACROM) were used for a functional assessment of cervical condition. Results: The one-year prevalence of neck pain was 42.9 %. Multivariate analysis revealed that pilots instructor have right side rotation limited (-9.4°vs. non instructors, F 1,36 = 8.6 with p \ 0.01). The use of head-mounted system (HMS) did not affect ACROM and muscular functionality. There were significant differences between Neck Pain Group (NPG) and healthy group of pilots concerning some ACROM (p \ 0.05) and some MEP (p \ 0.05). In NPG the levels of perceived pain showed significant correlation with past flight experience parameters (p \ 0.05) and the years of flight career (p \ 0.05). The amount of core stability activities, ball games, and weight lift exercise, negatively correlated with the level of perceived pain (p \ 0.05). Conclusion: ACROM and MEP were worst in NPG. The past flying experience on high-performance aircraft such as the F16 was highly related to neck pain. The negative correlation of some physical activities may suggest to further investigate their role in preventing the neck pain in EFA pilots.

Multilateral training improves body image perception in female adolescents

“…Our findings agree with previous studies that state that female body image dissatisfaction is generally associated with a desire for a thinner physique (Dion et al, 2016;Tiggemann, 2004). For girls, the desire to alter shape or weight during adolescence is common, and is associated with emotional distress, dramatic measures to alter appearance such as cosmetic surgery, depression, eating disorders (Bearman et al, 2006) and exercise addiction (Calogero, & Pedrotty-Stump, 2010;Tarturo, Greco, Cataldi, & Fischetti, 2016).…”
