UMIN-CTR Clinical Trial

Basic information
Official scientific title of the study	Influence of Kinesio taping on the scapulohumeral rhythm of the shoulder muscles in the middle trapezius exhibiting muscle weakness
Title of the study (Brief title)	Influence of Kinesio taping on the scapulohumeral rhythm of the shoulder muscles in the middle trapezius exhibiting muscle weakness
Region	Japan

Condition
Condition	About 20 healthy males who do not have upper limb pain during measurement are targeted. The age of the target is from teenagers to twenties. For members of the semi-rigid baseball club of Gunma University, if the number of objects is insufficient, add men who are still playing baseball in junior high school, high school, university etc, or men who have gone in the past.

Genomic information	NO

Objectives
Narrative objectives1	Focusing on the function of the midline fiber of the trapezius muscle on the basis of the "muscle function improving" effect of the Kinesio tape, investigated the influence of Kinesio taping on the trapezium upper arm rhythm to the central trabecular muscle fiber exhibiting muscle weakness By doing so, it aims to help treat the shoulder of the pitching obstacle.

Assessment
Primary outcomes	Measure the scapular upper arm rhythm of the subject. The seventh cervical spinous processes, seventh thoracic spinous processes, scapular capitulus triangle, shoulder angle, midsection of the shoulder spinous triangle and shoulder angle, and 6 points of humerus lateral epicondyle are affixed with body markers. The shoulder blade abduction movements of the shoulder blades are photographed and the angle of upper shoulder blade rotation with respect to the abduction angle 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 degrees is calculated by moving image analysis software . From the angle formed by the line connecting the seventh cervical spinous process and the seventh thoracic spinous process, the line connecting the midpoint of the scapular capitulus triangle and the shoulder spur triangle / shoulder corner angle, And the angle formed by the inner edge of the shoulder blade is subtracted is adopted as the upper rotation angle of the shoulder blade.
Key secondary outcomes	Muscle strength measurement of trapezius muscle superficial fiber, middle part fiber, lower part fiber, anterior saw muscle is performed on both sides. Measurement of muscle strength of each muscle is carried out based on MMT using ANIMA Handheld Dynamometer.

Type of intervention	Maneuver
Interventions/Control_1	Try Kinesio taping only for the trapezius midbrain fibers, for groups whose throwing side muscular strength is less than 80% of the non-throwing side muscular strength. For the tape, use Kinesio Tex + PLUS width 50 mm recommended by the Kinesio Taping Association. For the application method, cut 20 cm in the longitudinal direction into the tape cut to 25 cm, and attach it along the running of the trapezium muscle fiber.
Interventions/Control_2	Kinesio taping is performed on a group in which the pitching side muscular strength of the trapezium midbrain fiber is not less than 80% of the non-throwing side muscle force. For the tape, use Kinesio Tex + PLUS width 50 mm recommended by the Kinesio Taping Association. For the application method, cut 20 cm in the longitudinal direction into the tape cut to 25 cm, and attach it along the running of the trapezium muscle fiber.
