Background: The activation of respiratory muscles is influenced by a change in gravitational force and length-tension variations. Many studies have shown the influence of posture on respiratory muscles in normal adults. The proprioceptive facilitation of musculoskeletal system has shown improvement in pulmonary functions of normal adults. The lack of evidence on the effect of posture in COPD subjects suggested a need to see the immediate effects of proprioceptive facilitation of upper back on peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) through taping on stable COPD subjects.Objectives of the study: To determine the PEFR values pre and post-taping in experimental group, to determine the PEFR values pre and post-taping in control group, to compare the PEFR values pre and post-taping within the groups and to compare the PEFR values pre and post-taping between the groups.
Methodology: 34 stable COPD subjects were recruited through convenience sampling. All the subjects were randomly allocated to experimental group (17) and control group (17). The PEFR was measured by peak flow meter as baseline data for both the groups. The experimental group was given proprioceptive facilitation through taping of upper back by instructing the subjects to erect their spine and retract their shoulders whereas control group was given sham taping. The PEFR for both the groups was measured pre and post taping.
Results: Paired t test was done to compare the PEFR values within the groups and independent t test was used for comparison between the groups. Interpretation: On analyzing the test, significant results were seen in the experimental and control group. The experimental group showed significant improvement in PEFR value(p
Conclusion: The results suggest that proprioceptive facilitation of upper back through taping in COPD subjects improves pulmonary function.

Legumes are an essential component of our diet especially in developing world; they are widely grown and consumed in various regions, and excellent sources of proteins and complex carbohydrates. Six kidney bean varieties were evaluated for their functional and cooking properties. Samples of kidney beans used in present study were procured from Mountain Agriculture Research and Extension Centre, Sangla (Kinnaur) of Himachal Pradesh, India. The bulk density of the kidney beans varied between 0.76 g/ml to 0.81 g/ml. Higher bulk density was found in variety Jwala (0.86 g/ml) whereas, lowest was found in Baspa, Him1 and Triloki varieties (0.76 g/ml). Hydration capacity and swelling capacity of the seeds of different varieties varied significantly and present in the range of 0.21–0.46 g/seed and 0.22–0.35 ml/seed, respectively. The swelling capacity of variety Triloki was higher as compared to other varieties of kidney beans. Cooking time of unsoaked seeds of different varieties significantly varied and ranged between 25 to 35 min. whereas, the soaking of grains of kidney beans reduced the cooking time and varied from 15 to 20 min.Keywords
