Studies in the area of headache and migraine reported from C. Fernandezdelaspenas and co-researchers.
"The purpose of the study was to compare the co-activation of cervical agonist and antagonist muscles between people with chronic tension-type headache (CTTH) and healthy controls during brief isometric cervical flexion and extension contractions. Nine women with CTTH and 10 matched controls participated," scientists in Madrid, Spain report (see also Headache and Migraine).
"Surface electromyographic (EMG) signals were detected from the sternocleidomastoid and splenius capitis muscles bilaterally during cervical flexion and extension contractions of linearly increasing force from 0% to 60% of the maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) in 3 s. Sternocleidomastoid and splenius capitis EMG average rectified values (ARV) were estimated at 10% MVC force increments. During cervical extension contraction, sternocleidomastoid (i.e. antagonist muscle) ARV was greater for patients than for controls in the force range 20-60% MVC (P = 0.029). During cervical flexion, the left splenius capitis (i.e. antagonist muscle) ARV was greater for CTTH patients regardless of the force level (P = 0.02). Maximum cervical flexion and extension force was lower for the CTTH patients compared with controls (P = 0.001)," wrote C. ...
