The effect of neural mobilization with cervical traction in cervical radiculopathy patients

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is the application of electrical stimulation to the skin via surface electrodes to stimulate nerve fibers, primarily used for relief of pain. The gate control theory of pain asserts that non-painful input closes the nerve "gates" to painful input, which prevents pain sensation from traveling to the central nervous system. Neurodynamics or Neural mobilization, refers to the communication between different parts of the nervous system and to the nervous systems relationship to the musculoskeletal system.

Estrutura conceitual da contabilidade 2018: buscando suas origens no pensamento de paton e littleton

Este estudo tem o objetivo de verificar o desenvolvimento da Ciência Contábil a partir da evolução de sua base conceitual. Para isso, o estudo comparou conceitos e construtos da Estrutura Conceitual IASB 2018 com os da Monografia nº 3 de Paton e Littleton (1940). Tal estudo visou possibilitar um panorama das mudanças conceituais da contabilidade ocorridas entre dois instantes separados por 80 anos a fim de se tentar compreender quais as alterações e suas causas. Os dois trabalhos foram estudados por meio de análise de conteúdo e sob a ótica da teoria contábil foram comparados.
