It was hypothesized that:
There is no statistical significant effects of a scapular vupward rotation exercise (SURE) on scapular alignment in subjects with scapular downward rotation syndrome (SDRS).
There is no statistical significant effects a scapular upward rotation exercise (SURE) on mechanosensitivity of the upper limb peripheral nervous system in a depressed scapular alignment subjects.
There is no statistical significant effects a scapular upward rotation exercise (SURE) on pressure Pain Threshold in a depressed scapular alignment subjects.
There is no statistical significant effects a scapular upward rotation exercise (SURE)on Strenght Duration Curve measurement in a depressed scapular alignment subjects.
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of scapular upward rotation exercises on strength duration curve and pressure pain threshold (PPT) in subjects with scapular downward rotation syndrome.
Thirty subjects with age range of 18 to 30 years with scapular downward rotation were recruited in this study.
Thirty subjects of both gender with scapular downward rotation were recruited in this study.
All recruited subjects were examined to exclude defined pathological conditions.
All subjects were assessed by screening examination for downward rotation of scapula.
Pressure pain threshold was measured using pressure algometer. Mechanosensitivity of neural tissue was measured using neurodynamic test. Pain was measured using strength-duration (SD) curve. Treatment program consisted of 3 sessions/week, for 6 weeks. All measurements were taken pre and post the treatment period.
270 studies on the registry are indexed under Dyskinesias; 41 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 30 is below the median of 44 across 192 interventional studies indexed under Dyskinesias.

University population were screened for subjects with scapular downward rotation, those who met the following criteria was recruited in this study. The inclusion criteria for subject selection in this study was based on the literature (Caldwell et al., 2007; Ha et al., 2011) which included:
Exclusion Criteria:
Subject who has any of the following criteria was excluded from the study:
The treatment program consisted of upward rotation exercises for 3 sessions/week, for 6 weeks.
Other: Upward rotation exercise
Treatment for correction of depressed scapular Alignment by exercise ( Upward Rotation Exercises) for 6 weeks.
Neural excitability
Neural excitability measured by Strenght-duration cruve.
Time frame: Strenght-duration curve for neural excitability is measured before starting the treatment.Strenght-duration is measured after application of 6 weeks treatment program.
Pressure pain threshold
Pressure pain threshold was measured using pressure algometer.
Time frame: All measurements were taken pre and post the treatment period (6 weeks).
