Clinical and symptomatological reflections: the fascial system Abstract Every body structure is wrapped in connective tissue, or fascia, creating a structural continuity that gives form and function to every tissue and organ. Currently, there is still little information on the functions and interactions between the fascial continuum and the body system; unfortunately, in medical literature there are few texts explaining how fascial stasis or altered movement of the various connective layers can generate a

Skin, fascias, and scars: symptoms and systemic connections Abstract: Every element or cell in the human body produces substances that communicate and respond in an autocrine or paracrine mode, consequently affecting organs and structures that are seemingly far from each other. The same also applies to the skin. In fact, when the integrity of the skin has been altered, or when its healing process is disturbed, it becomes a source of symptoms that are

Anatomic connections of the diaphragm: influence of respiration on the body system Abstract The article explains the scientific reasons for the diaphragm muscle being an important crossroads for information involving the entire body. The diaphragm muscle extends from the trigeminal system to the pelvic floor, passing from the thoracic diaphragm to the floor of the mouth. Like many structures in the human body, the diaphragm muscle has more than one function, and has

Riflesso di Stiramento e riflesso di Hoffmann Contesto È ipotesi del Dott. Irvin M. Korr (PhD) che la sensibilità del Riflesso Miotatico Monosinaptico [trad. dell’anglosassone “Stretch Reflex”, tradotto anche come “Riflesso di Stiramento” n.d.T.] giochi un ruolo fondamentale nella diminuzione di mobilità caratteristica della disfunzione somatica. Perciò, riprogrammando la funzione dei recettori dello stiramento, con il Trattamento Manipolativo Osteopatico (OMT) si potrebbe ottenere il ripristino della mobilità. Obiettivo Si vuole testare l’ipotesi del

Cranial nerves XIII and XIV: nerves in the shadows Abstract It has been known for over a century that these cranial nerves exist, and that they are not typographical errors nor a sensational event reported in the medical literature. A number of scientific articles on anatomy highlight how textbooks on descriptive anatomy do not always consider variables such as differences related to the geographical areas where people live, and these differences do exist. This

Evaluation of a textile-based wearable system for the electrocardiogram monitoring in cardiac patients Abstract AIMS: We developed a textile-based wearable system, named MagIC, for the unobtrusive monitoring of one electrocardiogram (ECG) lead, respiratory frequency and motion. In the present study, we investigated the ability of this system to monitor cardiac rhythm and arrhythmic events in cardiac patients. METHODS AND RESULTS: The study was carried out by comparing ECG tracings simultaneously recorded by MagIC and
