Step off deformities indicate
What is Spondylolisthesis
100
These muscles primarily function to provide respiration and movement associated with the upper extremity and scapula, indirectly influencing the spinal column
What is extrinsic muscles
100
Test that requires the patient to actively extend the knee
What is Sitting Root test
100
How many accessory ligaments assist in maintaining the stability of the SI joint?
What is two
200
Provides an attachment site for the spine's intrinsic ligaments and muscles and increases the muscles mechanical leverage
What is transverse process
200
Tightness of these muscles increases the amount of lordosis in the lumbar spine
What is paravertebral muscles
200
These muscles lie close to the spinal column indorectly influencing its motion
What is intrinsic muscles
200
Test that requires the patient to actively extend one knee at a time
What is 90-90 Straight Leg Raise test
200
A series of ligaments that serve to bind the sacrum to the pelvis
What is SI joint
300
The place where the weight of the torso and skull is transmitted to the lower extremity
What is sacroiliac joint (SI joint)
300
Abnormal curvature of the lumbar spine
What is lordosis
300
This muscle flexes the lumbar spine against gravity
What is rectus abdominis
300
Test thet requires the patient to a unilateral straight leg raise
What is Hoover test
300
This originates from the sacrum's ischial spine and attaches to the coccyx

400
This arises from the ischial tuberosity to blend with the inferior fibers of the dorsal SI ligaments
What is Sacrotuberous ligament
500
This occurs when the fifth lumbar vertebra becomes fused with the sacrum
What is sacralization
500
A unilaterally hypertrophied or atrophied muscle can indicate instability or poor/abnormal posture
