  2. Subscapularis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subscapularis_muscle

    The subscapularis is covered by a dense fascia which attaches to the scapula at the margins of the subscapularis' attachment (origin) on the scapula. [1] The muscle's fibers pass laterally from its origin before coalescing into a tendon of insertion. [citation needed] The tendon intermingles with the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint capsule. [1]

  3. Scapulohumeral muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scapulohumeral_muscles

    The scapulohumeral muscles are a group of seven muscles that connect the humerus to the scapula. They are amongst the muscles that act on and stabilise the glenohumeral joint in the human body. They include: coracobrachialis muscle deltoid muscle rotator cuff muscles: infraspinatus muscle subscapularis muscle supraspinatus muscle teres minor muscle teres major muscle See also Other muscles ...

  4. Shoulder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder

    The muscles of the rotator cuff are supraspinatus, subscapularis, infraspinatus, and teres minor. The cuff adheres to the glenohumeral capsule and attaches to the humeral head . The shoulder must be mobile enough for the wide range actions of the arms and hands, but stable enough to allow for actions such as lifting, pushing, and pulling.

  5. Oblique ridges of scapula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_ridges_of_scapula

    These ridges are formed by intramuscular tendons of the subscapularis muscle. [1] The costal or ventral surface of the scapula presents a broad concavity, the subscapular fossa. The medial two-thirds of the fossa are marked by several oblique ridges, which run lateralward and upward.

  6. Shoulder joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_joint

    The muscles shown are subscapularis muscle (at right), infraspinatus muscle (at top left), teres minor muscle (at bottom left) The movement of the scapula across the rib cage in relation to the humerus is known as the scapulohumeral rhythm , and this helps to achieve a further range of movement.

  7. Shoulder impingement syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_impingement_syndrome

    The intrinsic muscles of the scapula include the muscles of the rotator cuff- the subscapularis, infraspinatus, teres minor and supraspinatus. [9] These muscles attach to the surface of the scapula and are responsible for the internal and external rotation of the glenohumeral joint, along with humeral abduction.

  8. Subscapular nerves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subscapular_nerves

    These nerves are part of a group of nerves that innervate the muscles that move the scapula. The upper subscapular nerve innervates the upper portion of the subscapularis muscle. The middle subscapular nerve, known as the thoracodorsal nerve, innervates the latissimus dorsi muscle. [1] The lower subscapular nerve contains two branches.

  9. Psychophysiological economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychophysiological_economics

    Psychophysiological economics differs from behavioral economics by focusing on direct measures of physiological change and observational data, in addition to attitudinal measurement. Psychophysiological economics also differs from functional magnetic resonance imaging , which is typically applied exclusively to the study of brain activity.
