[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in the shoulder and elbow joint angles, upper limb angular velocities, and elbow varus torque when throwing balls of two different sizes. [Participants and Methods] The pitching motion of 26 junior baseball players was analyzed using an optical motion capture system. The balls used were a standard baseball and a small ball of equal weight. Shoulder external rotation/abduction and elbow flexion were measured. The maximum values of shoulder joint internal rotation, elbow joint extension, wrist flexion angular velocity, and elbow joint varus torque were also evaluated. The ball velocity was determined as an index of pitching performance. [Results] The shoulder external rotation and elbow flexion angles were higher when pitching with a small ball. The joint angular velocity was also significantly higher when pitching with a small ball for all items examined. The ball speed was significantly higher with the small ball. The maximum varus torque of the elbow joint divided by the ball velocity was significantly lower for the small ball. [Conclusion] For a junior baseball player with a small hand length, using a small ball enables pitching with low stress on the elbow joint. - Instantaneous changes in respiratory function induced by passive pelvic suspension in the supine position in relation to increased diaphragm excursion.

[Purpose] This study aimed to introduce an approach of pelvic suspension (PS) using sling cords and to obtain evidence for changes in respiratory function of healthy subjects. [Subjects and Methods] Subjects were 25 healthy men. In the supine position, with hip and knee joints flexed at 90°, the subjects' pelvises were suspended with sling belts. Diaphragm excursion, respiratory function, and respiratory comfort in these postures were measured using ultrasonography, respirometry, and visual analog scale (VAS), respectively. [Results] When the pelvis was passively suspended with sling cords, the diaphragm moved 5 mm cranially and diaphragm excursion showed an instantaneous increase compared with the control. The tidal volume (VT) showed an increase and the respiration rate (RR) showed a decrease. The extent of diaphragm excursion was correlated with changes in VT under the control and PS conditions. Independent measurements of pulmonary function revealed that PS reduced the expiratory reserve volume, being correlated positively and negatively to increases in vital and inspiratory capacities, respectively. Furthermore, VAS values for respiratory ease were greater with PS than with the control. [Conclusion] These results suggest that PS effectively changed diaphragm excursion and respiratory function, leading to ease of breathing (i.e., deep and slow respiration). - 努力呼吸における胸郭形状の解析－呼吸機能と胸郭形状の関係性について－
