Histochemical characteristics and contractile properties of the spinotrapezius muscle in the rat and the mouse.

abstract：:Many studies have demonstrated the association between facet tropism and disc herniation in the lumbar spine. Some of them found that lumbar disc herniation was on the side of the more sagittal facet joint interface. However, little is understood about the association of facet tropism with disc herniation in the cervi...
