Summary
This review examines chiropractic vertebral subluxation (CVS) history from 1966-1980. Consensus models evolved, influenced by NIH conferences, shaping CVS terminology and functional pathophysiology understanding.
Area of Science:
- Chiropractic research
- Medical history
- Spinal manipulation studies
Background:
- Chiropractic vertebral subluxation (CVS) has a complex history.
- Understanding the evolution of CVS models is crucial for the chiropractic profession.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review and discuss the history of chiropractic vertebral subluxation (CVS) between 1966 and 1980.
- To emphasize the development of consensus models and terminology during this period.
Main Methods:
- Historical review of literature and professional documents.
- Analysis of consensus model development.
- Examination of influences on CVS theory and terminology.
Main Results:
- Consensus models for CVS emerged from prior research and practice.
- Early models were developed by American Chiropractic Board of Radiology diplomates.
- The 1975 NIH conference on spinal manipulation significantly influenced CVS theory and terminology.
Conclusions:
- Consensus models for CVS evolved from previous work and influenced Medicare standards.
- The NIH conference marked a turning point, fostering new terminology and focus on functional pathophysiology.
- Integrative and historical developments in chiropractic were shaped by key figures and evolving CVS perspectives.

01:20Anatomical Terminology
26.8K
Knowledge of anatomy is essential to understand human biology and medicine. Anatomists and health care professionals use standard terminology to describe the human body with more precision and no ambiguity. Anatomical terms have mostly Greek and Latin-derived roots. Because these languages are rarely used in conversation, the meaning of words remains the same. Each term is made up of a root in between the prefixes and suffixes. The root of a term often refers to an organ, tissue, or condition,...

01:14Circuit Terminology
2.8K
An electrical network is a system composed of interconnected elements, such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, and voltage or current sources. Unlike a circuit, an electrical network does not necessarily form a closed path. In other words, while all circuits can be considered networks due to their interconnected nature, not every network qualifies as a circuit.
A circuit, on the other hand, is also an interconnected system of electrical elements but must contain one or more closed paths.

Chromatography is an analytical technique widely used in fields such as chemistry, biology, environmental science, and pharmaceuticals to separate the components of a mixture and identify substances between them. The process of chromatography is based on the interactions between two distinct phases: the stationary phase and the mobile phase. The stationary phase is fixed in place by a supporting material, while the mobile phase moves over it, carrying the solutes. As the mobile phase travels,...

Consider a real-valued function defined on a closed interval. One of the fundamental objectives in calculus is to determine the area under the graph of such a function. When an exact computation is not readily available, this area can be estimated by dividing the interval into a finite number of equal subintervals. Each subinterval corresponds to a rectangle whose width is the length of the subinterval and whose height is determined by the value of the function at a selected point within that...

1.6K
The z-transform is a powerful mathematical tool used in the analysis of discrete-time signals and systems. It is an essential analytical tool, analogous to the Laplace transform used in continuous-time systems. It plays a crucial role in the analysis of signals and systems, complementing the discrete-time Fourier transform. Both the z-transform and the Laplace transform convert differential or difference equations into algebraic equations, simplifying the process of solving complex problems.

A car’s motion over time can be effectively analyzed using integral calculus, particularly through the concept of the definite integral applied to a velocity–time relationship. The definite integral describes how velocity accumulates over a specified time interval to produce total displacement. From a geometric perspective, this displacement is interpreted as the area under the velocity–time curve. Several key properties of definite integrals make it easier to analyze motion...
