Evidence of Renin-Angiotensin System Receptors in Deep Fascia: A Role in Extracellular Matrix Remodeling and Fibrogenesis?
Carmelo Pirri, Brasilina Caroccia, Andrea Angelini, Lucia Petrelli, Maria Piazza, Carlo Biz, Pietro Ruggieri, Raffaele…This study investigated the presence of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components in deep fascia, specifically the thoracolumbar fascia. While RAS is best known for regulating blood pressure, it also plays a significant…

The feasibility and impact of instrument-assisted manual therapy (IAMT) for the lower back on the structural and functional properties of the lumbar area in female soccer players: a randomised, placebo-controlled pilot study design
Patrick Weber, Christine Graf, Werner Klingler, Nadine Weber, Robert SchleipThis is a protocol for a pilot study designed to investigate the feasibility and impact of instrument-assisted manual therapy (IAMT) for the lower back in female soccer players. The researchers plan to compare IAMT with…

The feasibility and impact of instrumentassisted manual therapy (IAMT) for the lower back on the structural and functional properties of the lumbar area in female soccer players: a randomised, placebocontrolled pilot study design, 2020
Patrick Weber, Christine Graf, Werner Klingler, Nadine Weber, Robert SchleipThis paper describes the design for a pilot study to investigate the feasibility and impact of instrument-assisted manual therapy (IAMT) for the lower back. The researchers plan to recruit at least 60 healthy female soc…

Innervation of the thoracolumbar fascia
Siegfried MenseThis study, conducted primarily on rats, investigated the types of nerves in the thoracolumbar fascia (TLF) to better understand its sensory roles. Researchers found only free nerve endings, many of which are associated…

Assessment of pain quality reveals distinct differences between nociceptive innervation of low back fascia and muscle in humans
Andreas Schilder, Walter Magerl, Thomas Klein, Rolf-Detlef TreedeThis study explored whether pain from low back muscles is perceived differently than pain from the overlying fascia. Researchers used electrical stimulation in 16 healthy participants, who then described the induced pai…

Sensory Nerve Fibers Containing Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide in Gastrocnemius, Latissimus Dorsi and Erector Spinae Muscles and Thoracolumbar Fascia in Mice
C M Barry, G Kestell, M Gillan, R V Haberberger, I L GibbinsIn this animal study, researchers investigated sensory nerve fibers containing CGRP, a peptide involved in pain signaling. They compared the presence of these nerve fibers in various muscles (gastrocnemius, latissimus d…

Sensory findings after stimulation of the thoracolumbar fascia with hypertonic saline suggest its contribution to low back pain
Andreas Schilder, Ulrich Hoheisel, Walter Magerl, Justus Benrath, Thomas Klein, Rolf-Detlef TreedeThis experimental study investigated the role of the thoracolumbar fascia as a potential source of low back pain. Researchers injected a pain-inducing saline solution into the fascia, back muscles, and subcutaneous tiss…

Sensory Innervation of the Thoracolumbar Fascia in Rats and Humans
J Tesarz, U Hoheisel, B Wiedenhöfer, S MenseThis study investigated the nerve supply of the thoracolumbar fascia (TLF), the connective tissue of the low back, in both rats and humans. Researchers found that the fascia is richly innervated with sensory nerves, but…

Reduced thoracolumbar fascia shear strain in human chronic low back pain
Helene M Langevin, J R Fox, C Koptiuch, G J Badger, A C Greenan-Naumann, N A Bouffard, E E Konofagou, W-N Lee, J J Tria…Researchers used ultrasound to investigate the movement between layers of the thoracolumbar fascia, a large sheet of connective tissue in the lower back. They compared a group of people with chronic low back pain to a g…

3D reconstruction of the crural and thoracolumbar fasciae
L Benetazzo, A Bizzego, R De Caro, G Frigo, D Guidolin, Carla SteccoResearchers created detailed 3D computer models to visualize the structure of the crural fascia in the lower leg and the superficial layer of the thoracolumbar fascia in the lower back. They found the crural fascia is c…
