Effect of Pectoralis Minor Length on Scapular Endurance and Core Endurance in Young Women
Bibliographic record
Abstract
SUMMARY: Pectoralis minor (PM) are muscle groups that play a role in stabilizing the scapula. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of PM muscle length on scapular and core muscle endurance in the dominant and non-dominant limb. A total of 93 women were included in the study. Demographic data were recorded. PM length was measured with a caliper. Scapular muscle endurance was evaluated using the scapular isometric compression test and core endurance using McGill’s torso-muscular endurance test battery. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that dominant pectoralis minor length and pectoralis minor index and non-dominant pectoralis minor length and pectoralis minor index can affect trunk flexion and trunk extension. The longest muscle endurance time was found in the scapular test (46.32), followed by the core tests performed in extension (30.37 s), flexion (26.17 s), dominant side bridge position (10.06 s), non-dominant side bridge position (9.36 s). PM length had no effect on scapular and core muscle endurance measured in the side bridge position. In the trunk flexion and extension positions was directly related to the dominant and non-dominant PM muscle length.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
