Abstract：
BACKGROUND: The myofascial induction technique (MIT) has been shown to increase shoulder range of motion (ROM) in breast cancer survivors and decrease pain pressure threshold over the radial nerve in patients with epicondylalgia. To the authors\' best knowledge, no study on trigger points and MIT has been published to date. The effect on ROM of latent trigger points is also unknown.
METHODS: A total of 20 twins with one latent trigger point of the gastrocnemius muscle were evaluated pre- and post-MIT in the calf. We measured static footprint variables in a pre-post study.
RESULTS: We found differences in PPT (p = 0.001) and no differences in ROM with knee flexed (p = 0.420) or stretched (p = 0.069).
CONCLUSIONS: After Calf MIT, latent myofascial trigger points improve PPT but no change in ankle dorsiflexion with knee bent or knee flexed were found in non-restriction healthy subjects.

摘要：
背景：肌筋膜诱导技术（MIT）已被证明可以增加乳腺癌幸存者的肩关节活动范围（ROM），并降低上髁痛患者的the神经上的疼痛压力阈值。对于作者最好的知识，迄今为止，尚未发表有关触发点和MIT的研究。潜在触发点对ROM的影响也是未知的。
方法：在小腿MIT前后评估了总共20对具有一个腓肠肌潜在触发点的双胞胎。我们在一项事前研究中测量了静态足迹变量。
结果：我们发现在膝关节弯曲（p=0.420）或拉伸（p=0.069）的情况下，PPT的差异（p=0.001）和ROM的差异。
结论：在小牛麻省理工学院之后，潜在的肌筋膜触发点可以改善PPT，但在非限制性健康受试者中，膝关节弯曲或膝关节弯曲的踝关节背屈没有变化。
