In computational number theory, Cornacchia's algorithm is an algorithm for solving the Diophantine equation + =, where < and d and m are coprime. The algorithm was described in 1908 by Giuseppe Cornacchia.
The McKenzie method is a technique primarily used in physical therapy.It was developed in the late 1950s by New Zealand physiotherapist Robin McKenzie. [1] [2] [3] In 1981 he launched the concept which he called "Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT)" – a system encompassing assessment, diagnosis and treatment for the spine and extremities.
National guidelines vary; some recommend the therapy for those who do not improve with other treatment. [49] It may be effective for lumbar disc herniation with radiculopathy , [ 50 ] [ 51 ] as effective as mobilization for neck pain, [ 52 ] some forms of headache, [ 53 ] [ 54 ] and some extremity joint conditions.
Next we need an algorithm to count the number of points on E. Applied to E, this algorithm (Koblitz and others suggest Schoof's algorithm) produces a number m which is the number of points on curve E over F N, provided N is prime. If the point-counting algorithm stops at an undefined expression this allows to determine a non-trivial factor of N.
The McKenzie protocol also now includes flexion protocols and stresses the importance of differentiating whether flexion or extension improves patient's symptoms. As a result, McKenzie principles are used by many physical therapists in the treatment of low back pain, whereas Williams Exercises are no longer taught as a physical therapy protocol.
Counterstrain is a technique used in osteopathic medicine, osteopathy, physical therapy, massage therapy, and chiropractic to treat somatic dysfunction. [1] It is a system of diagnosis and treatment that uses tender points, which are produced by trauma, inflammation, postural strain, or disease, to identify structures to manipulate. [2]
By explicitly constructing the complete graph on n vertices, which has n(n-1)/2 edges, a rectilinear minimum spanning tree can be found using existing algorithms for finding a minimum spanning tree. In particular, using Prim's algorithm with an adjacency matrix yields time complexity O(n 2).
This article is about physical therapy in carpal tunnel syndrome. Physical therapists and occupational therapists are involved in the assessment and intervention process with clients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Physical and occupational therapy professionals provide education, symptom management (such as splinting, physical agent ...
