AIM: The aim is to study the prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis using quantitative calcaneal ultrasound among female population. METHODOLOGY: It was a cross-sectional study with a sample size of 270 female subjects between 30-70 years for 3 months duration. Subjects who underwent hysterectomy, under hormone replacement therapy, under calcium and vitamin D supplements and diabetes mellitus were excluded. Recruited subjects were screened for osteopenia and osteoporosis using quantitative calcaneal ultrasound. Demographical information including age, height, weight, body mass index, menstrual status, blood pressure and socio-economic status were recorded. RESULT: Out of 270 subjects 57.4% were osteopenic, 15.9% were osteoporotic and 26.7% were normal. There was a close association between the demographical status and the prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis. CONCLUSION: Osteopenia seems to be more prevalent than osteoporosis. Early diagnosis of osteopenia among females is necessary to delay the onset of osteoporosis.Keywords

Objective: The study aims to analyse and compare the efficacy of neck stabilization exercise and postural correction exercise over conventional exercises on pain, disability, posture, Respiratory dysfunction in desk job workers with neck pain. Background of The Study: Neck pain is a common disorder mainly caused by awkward posture, tightness in both the neck and upper back muscles and prolonged sitting while using computers, twisting and bending of the trunk. Rounded shoulder is a condition characterized by protracted shoulder girdle from its normal. Imbalance between agonist and antagonist results in muscle imbalance affecting the cervical curvature resulting in pain. Materials and Methods: Once the study is approved by Institutional Review Board Ref no: IV C – 018 / PHYSIO / IRB /2017-2018 50 samples were selected from 60 volunteers based on the inclusion criteria. The study was conducted is the outpatient department of physiotherapy & took nearly 3months (Jan 2018 – May 2018) to complete the study.. Group A received Neck Stabilization exercise and postural correction exercise with deep breathing exercise. Group B received stretch and strengthening exercise with deep breathing exercise. Pre and post-test measured with NDI-Neck disability index, CSBQ-Cervical Spine Bournemouth Questionnaire, SEBQ-Self-Evaluation Breathing Questionnaire, DST-Double square test. Result: On comparing Pre-test and Post-test within Group A and Group B on Double Square Test(Right and Left), Neck Disability Index, Cervical Spine Bournemouth Questionnaire, Self-Evaluation of Breathing Questionnaire shows significant decrease in the post test Mean values but Group A which has the Lower Mean value is more effective than Group B at P ≤ 0.001.Keywords

Introduction: Over the previous decade, musculoskeletal disorders have turned into a noteworthy ailment causing disability and expanded burden around the world. This burden will probably develop consistently, impacted by the accompanying variables, for example, age, occupation, way of life, general wellbeing, replacement, wellbeing history and so on. Earlier examinations have officially shown that age amass somewhere in the range of 34 and 51 years of age of office workers have encountered non specific low back pain in the first investigation for a year was up to 20 to 23% of office specialists.
Aim of Study: Evaluating the commonness of NSLBP among individuals of age group 18-60 years in like manner populations to contemplate the pervasiveness of NSLBP in relationship with occupational posture and way of life factors. Likewise we indent to make a self administratorquestionnaire for the examination populations utilizing computerized correspondence frameworks (Survey monkey application)
Material and Method: A cluster sample of over 480 subjects in like manner populations changing age groups between 18-60 years, where haphazardly got from office workers and drivers to be taken an interest in the examination. Overview through a survey for investigating general wellbeing, Body mass index, age, gender, occupation, rate and span of non specific LBP taken after by examination of information utilizing reasonable factual devices. We needed to reject couple of reactions from our investigation as they were either from individuals younger than 18 years old or more seasoned than 60 years old.
Conclusion: The vast majority of the members had no past history of lower back pain. Some of them could have bring down back pain because of their wellbeing conditions, some because of inactive way of life, some because of movement and so forth. Smoking and liquor addiction likewise could conceivably prompt lower back pain that is nonspecific. For this to be demonstrated, more surveys must be led taking a bigger example of around 1000 subjects.
